the H family, part 2

finally! here is the full post (and it's a really long one for your viewing pleasure)! i present the h family, dear friends of mine:) i was their babysitter for years, and i still have to see them every time i go home!! they were one of the first families that let me photograph them when i was starting out so i owe them a lot. i used the images from that shoot as my beginning portfolio and look where i am now because of it:) at the bottom of this i've posted a few of the pictures from our shoot in 2007 just for kicks. check out how much they've grown up, and how my photography has changed in the past 3 years!!! if someone had told me that summer that in 3.5 years i'd have shot weddings in 3 different states, met hundreds of amazing people, discovered "my" thing, and decided to leave byu in order to do it, i may or may not have peed my pants and climbed in bed for a while. :) it's been an amazing journey. i can't wait to see what the next three years have in store for me!

anyways, here's the gorgeous h family:

just for fun, here are a couple of in-between shots.. hahahaha. not all images come out perfect, or are perfectly orchestrated! somehow these beauties manage to look amazing even when they're figuring it out;)

another amusing one, taylar was accidentally placed on an ant hill.. the distressed look is a combination of discomfort and forced conformity. i guess i wasn't listening when she said she was being attacked.. sorry taylar!!! while i was taking the shot i kept saying "taylar! smile!" so she was trying to.

i started laughing at the face taylar was making and so she started laughing at me laughing, and we got this great shot before the kids all jumped up and scattered!!!
