Hadley is such a little doll! Her whole face lights up when she smiles, and she has so many cute expressions
Warmed my heart! She was a great little model and very cooperative, but when she was done, that was it! I’m looking forward to our next session together

Taylor was great to work with and was so comfortable in front of the camera. The ones with the lace, don’t you think she totally looks like Bella from Twilight? I kept thinking, Oh my gosh, she could be a movie star! But she’s doing something much more noble. She’s studying to be a nurse and will be joining the National Guard this coming year. I’m looking forward to another session with Taylor when she returns from training and we’ll do some with her in uniform. Can you imagine how beautiful those shots will be? And, here’s my latest way for displaying images on my blog. Just click on the thumbnails and the full version will open up. Cool!
My nephew Hayden is getting quite famous! This is the second time a photo of him has been found in use. This time was by a friend of his that was traveling and happened to see this ad in a Sky Mall magazine. Here is the same ad online:

Here’s the original (before they flipped and cropped it):

I’d been looking forward to this shoot for some time. This was for my commercial western lifestyle theme, so you might see some of these in use somewhere. Brey is quite the rodeo competitor and is real good with a rope. Even at his young age he’s been collecting trophies at a rate most professional rodeo cowboys would envy. And Brinlee with her miniature horse are just too cute for words! I found the perfect song to go with their pics, too
Check it out. . .
This one is of my nephew, Hayden, who is an avid street hockey player. A friend of his was in Boise at a Steelhead hockey game and while looking through the program was shocked to see his friend Hayden in a full page ad! You just never know where they’ll pop up!

Christina and Lyndsie are cousins and they both graduated last week from the radiology program at CSI. They agreed to come out and model for me in their caps and gowns. I got some great stuff and we all had fun
They’re now officially “radiological technicians” (say that ten times fast). Congratulations you two on such a huge accomplishment!
Megan’s one of my favorite people, and while she was home on break from school recently, she said she’d model for me. Anyone who knows Megan knows how much fun she is to be around, and I had her all to myself for 2 hours! Turn on your speakers and hit the play button on the bottom left for a show that’ll make you smile
This little doll is 7 months old now, and we got to do another commercial session together. Is it possible to have too much fun at a photo shoot? I love my job
Click the play button on the lower left side to see some of my favorites set to music.
We got some baby chicks recently and I just had to take some stock photos of them. They’re too cute! We also have an old Bible that was printed in 1890 that’s so cool. And yeah, some candy for props of course
Jim was the chicken wrangler and the chicks were so funny we were in hysterics, I wish we had a video of that shoot. Click the play button in the lower left corner to see some fun pics.
I got this sweet and fun email today from Christina, one of my favorite clients. It made my day so I just had to share:
“Cindy,
I just wanted to let you know of another sighting! A friend of ours was looking for airline tickets on cheaptickets.com and up popped a photo of Dustin and I. So, I checked it out myself and sure enough there it was…the pictures rotate through slowly or you can refresh the browser on that page and eventually you will come to an ad with the photo of Dustin and I in the grass where I am laughing (one of my fav’s).
I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy your photography. I often find myself at your website showing people how amazing you are, and just browsing all your inspirational artwork! We are truly thankful to you for capturing such precious moments in our lives. I hope to contact you soon for another family photo-session! The children are growing up so quickly that it is time to capture a new phase! I will finally graduate school in May so our busy lives should calm down a bit…maybe we can get together early this summer!
Congrats on all of your accomplishments lately…you truly have such an inspiring gift!
Christina and family”
