Randall Family Photos

I apologize for the delay in posts from current weddings and other photoshoots. My family and I caught a few different flu and colds recently.
However, I am going to be posting them.
Here is a photoshoot of a long time friend and her son. Annie and I were friends way back in elementary school and up. So, this photoshoot was extra special and fun for me. We went out to a really neat place and just had fun with it. I can't wait for the next shoot. Annie is also a photographer... she will be shooting some photos of my family this week! Here are a few from the other day!

Hanging out, enjoying beautiful weather, snapped some shots...

The weather has been so wonderful lately, a perfect time to hang out in the back yard with family and friends.
My best friend, Kate, was with me at my parent's house the other day and we decided to shoot a couple photos of her. She is about 37 weeks pregnant... a good time to have a snapshot or two of her being pregnant. Jordyn was out there running around so we snapped a couple of her as well. I love days like these! Here a just a couple from our day! I hope you enjoy them!

Arizona Weddings

Arizona Weddings Magazine will be coming out with their newest edition this June. As most of you don't know, I am now advertising in that magazine.
One of the fun things about Arizona Wedding Magazine is they dedicate a section in the center of the magazine to some of Arizona's Newest Newlyweds. Well, I finally have chosen the bride and groom I entered for Keator Photography, Steve and Cindy Threadgill. They were married in March this year. As well as all of my brides and grooms, Steve and Cindy were so awesome to work with. I had so much fun shooting their wedding. I have known Cindy for a couple years now and just recently got to know Steve just a bit. They are so sweet for each other. I did already post a few photos from their wedding. Here is the one you will be seeing in the magazine for Newest Newlywed!

Thank You, Cindy and Steve!!

Thank you for being such a wonderful couple to spend the day with!! It is so awesome to watch two people absolutely in love with each other. And to be able to capture it on camera is my dream, so it was a fabulous day! Not to mention all the laughing and jokes going on, it was a true party!
There were SOOO many photos from their wedding so here are a few randomly chosen photos from their wedding!!!

Gone for awhile... now I am back to blogging.

It's been awhile... But I am now back to blogging. So look back soon for some updates and recent shoots!

A little update about myself.
I am pregnant, again. I am about four and a half months along and we finally find out what the sex of the little baby is on April 9th!!! We couldn't be more excited. This is something my husband, Mike, has been counting down since I was first pregnant.

I will keep you posted on the good news shortly!

I will be taking a small break from shooting weddings for a few months. Mainly, August-half of October. I will still be working on current client albums, but just a break from being on my feet. I start back up with weddings at the end of October and I am already excited!

The 2009 Calendar is booking up fast for weddings! I am so excited to continue into a new year!

Our Daughter, Jordyn Ashlee

Recently, I took a trip to New Mexico to visit my best friend. While I was out there she gave birth to her beautiful daughter. So, while she was in the hospital, I had some down time to do a photo shoot of my daughter. It was just a five or 10 minute shoot. I just took her outside and began shooting. She is only 10 months old, but already loves to have her photo taken. She even knows that after it is taken she is able to view it on the back. So, after the photo is taken she always leans over like she is trying to see the back of my camera.... it is just the cutest thing. Once she sees herself on the screen, she laughs and gets right back in position. Sometimes, she even kisses herself on the screen. Anyways, I wanted to share a few images from that. The photo on the stairs... I set her down thinking she is going to try and roll forward down the steps, but she didn't. She placed each hand on the step behind her and continued to pose like this for several minutes. It turned out awesome!

Family makes events FUN

Recently, I shot a wedding for a family friend, Melinda and Jeff. Its always fun shooting weddings for people that you know. But, this wedding my older brother and sister-in-law were actually in the wedding. My other family were their and they brought my sweet, 10 month old daughter. It was so much fun. For those of you who do not know my older brother, he can entertain a room full of people very easily. He is a complete goofball, to say the least. My brother was the best man... luckily he knows the bride and groom very well. This explains why no one in the wedding party was surprised by all the jokes and goofing. I laughed so hard the entire day. I loved shooting all the photos of everyone. From the wedding party to the guests, everyone was full of energy, feeding off of my brother. The grandparents of the bride got their camera out, at one point, just to take a photo of my brother dancing. My parents were their with my daughter and it was so sweet to see how excited they were to be watching her for the day. I love my family! I love to shoot weddings, too. It was a great day! Here are a few photos.
