I can not say enough about this family. I had the best time with them. From making my puppet pig throw up grass, to watching them run around in the leaves and the kids tackle their mom and dad. It was just how I love sessions to go. I met Audrey and Jeff and Ashley and Mike's Millcreek Inn wedding this summer (you should check it out) It was simply a JOY. Hope you love your sneak peek! :)
Oh how I love this little Mia girl. I did her newborn photos, and then again when she wasn't even one yet- you can those here. I was so shocked when I saw how big she's gotten! And SO adorable!!! Here are just a few of my favorites so far...
These are just a few of the images I took of Spencers fundraiser event. Raising money for the insurmountable costs of treating cancer. It was so touching how many people came to support him and his family. Chick-fil-a is having a giving back day on Tuesday April 6th! Chick-fil-a of South Jordan is donating 10% of the days proceeds, plus taking cash & check donations & holding an in-store silent auction. Thanks Chick-fil-a!
These are his amazing parents Holly and Nate. Holly had to come without Spencer. He was off fighting cancer. I think she was pretty moved at the sheer number of people who came and the literal amount of work that went into putting on such an event by her friends.
The Jazz bear and one of their players- Wesley Matthews, showed up VIA HELICOPTER!!!
This awesome GameNGo video gaming truck came. Seriously so fantastic. It has mounted big flat screen TV's inside and like 12 kids play at the same time. Plus, the TV's outside. This would be the coolest thing ever for a birthday party. They come to you! If you're interested in this at all, I have their info.
Spencers Dad getting his head shaved- and little brother too. :) Over 100 people have shaved their head to support Spencer. Incredible.
Tender moment alert: This little guy showed up with this bag of his own money from his piggy bank. All he had was donated to Spencer. I had to shed a tear while taking this. Really, it helps you realize what life is really all about.
Hang in there Spencer. You can do it!! Now tell me this boy isn't loved & completely adored by many. I photographed this event free of charge. I'm always happy to donate my time and images to great causes like this. contact me for info.
Meet sweet Spencer. He is just 7 years old and fighting a battle with cancer. He was diagnosed with a Rhabdomyosarcoma, a malignant tumor in his parapharyngeal space in February. Just a week ago Hollys {Spencers amazing mom) friends put together a giant fundraiser. I photographed the event. It was so great- they had so much support. The only bummer was that Spencer wasn't able to attend the event. So heart wrenching. At the event they had a section where anyone could get their head shaved. You wouldn't even believe how many people did it. It was over 75 people that shaved their locks off to support Spencer. I'll post images from that later.
Then, this past Sunday I was able to photograph Spencer getting his head shaved. He has so much support and love on his side. This was my favorite image from that night. It's the kind of photo that does make you feel something. I love the strength and love you can see in his moms face. Truly touching. When I think of Spencer it makes me want to hug my own children tighter and tell them how deeply I love them. Life is fragile, and oh so precious.
To support Spencer and his family, check out their blog here.
Seriously loved these kids!!! Here are a few more from their session. They come up to Flagstaff from Phoenix so we could do a session, I'm SO glad they did! Of course taking a little break from heat...priceless. :)
Earn these fabulous parents a free print by leaving a comment. 25 of them will do! :)
OK, if you want to see a few people are LOVED...look no further. First of all they adore each other. Secondly, I have never seen so many people wait in a line that went OUT THE DOOR for almost the entire reception, to see a couple. It was really a tribute to how much they and their families are loved. And here are a few of the majorly in love couple: They were married in the Salt Lake Temple and their reception held at The Atrium at Western Gardens. A very cool venue for reception!!
