Boise Family Session I’ve created my own cliche that I like to repeat too often… Boise in the fall is magic. Pure magic. It’s all gold and red and sunshine, and it feels like nostalgia. It’s many peoples’ favorite season for such good reason. Though the goodbye to summer can be a bit melancholy, the […]

I photographed this new couple after their sealing ceremony at the Boise LDS temple on a beautiful (and rather hot) June day. After photos with the bride’s and groom’s extended families and wedding party, we spent some time around the grounds of the temple making memories of this incredibly special day and celebrating their love.

Summer vacation is just about over, and I definitely wasn’t ready for it to come so soon.

They’re exactly what I want them to be though: memories made with these precious children of mine, and reminders of the immense ways my husband and I […]

We know that family is hard, often every day, but gosh, it’s good too. It’s really, really good. And there’s no untangling the good from the hard – they’re just stuck together, at least as long as we’re living these earthly lives. But so much of the hard is exactly what makes the good all […]
