Jill

My dear, darling friend Jill volunteered to be one of my guinea pig models, and I am SO glad she did. I could not have had a more beautiful model to work with! She is seriously one of the kindest, most thoughtful people I have ever known. And her husband is such a dear! Seriously, my most favorite love story ever, right there with those two. Jill writes a fun recipe blog, The Nummy Little Blog. Every time she posts, I feel the need to go grocery shopping so I can cook whatever she's posting. It all looks so good!

We had so much fun in downtown Salt Lake at Abravanel Hall and at the Trax station on South Temple right in front of Abravanel. There was even a random hot dog stand! GENIUS! My little Bridger was being my little art director, telling us where to take pictures next. Sneaky little kid even got Jill's hot dog out of it. LOL! And a Jolly Rancher . . . man that kid knows how to work it! ;)

Kristen & Girls

I have had so much fun photographing everyone so far, and it was especially fun to photograph these gorgeous girls! I haven't seen Kristen since good ol' jr, high, so I was very much looking forward to catching up. We went to the downtown library in Salt Lake City. There are just so many fun places for photos there! When we started, I asked Kristen's oldest girl if there was a word I could say that would make her laugh, if she had a favorite funny word. Her word of choice was "blankie," and so every time I said "blankie" she would make sure she gave me a great big laugh. I loved it!
