hello gorgeous...

Needless to say, I am beyond excited for this couple's wedding next month. If it goes half as well as their bridals/groomals, I will be THRILLED! Thanks Ben and Becca for a fabulous evening, you made it so FUN!

Enjoy this couples fun, silly, sweet relationship!

funds for nie!


photo courtesy of blue lily photography


As many of you avid Nie Nie Dialogues readers know, Stephanie and Christian Nielson of Mesa were in a private plane crash on August 16th. They are currently stable, but still critical condition. Stephanie has the worst of it- with severe burns covering 80% of her body she will need to spend months in the hospital recovering while her children live with family in Utah.

Since today is the official NIE NIE DAY I decided to join in on the fund raising fun by auctioning off a family (or baby or engagement- whatever) mini session (that's a 30 minute shoot with the 5 best images on a cd), a $75 value.
The best part? I will schedule the winner whenever they want! no waiting for availability in November like everyone else- Priceless.  To bid, leave a comment with a bid amount RIGHT HERE on this post! The auction will end this SUNDAY AT MIDNIGHT.
I will contact the winner, who can pay up at the Stephanie Nielson Recovery Fund and send me a reciept.
STARTING BID IS ONE DOLLAR!! Happy Bidding!

I took Becca and Ben's bridals/groomals tonight, and so far I have about four times as many favorites as I need. I have NOOO idea how I am going to narrow these down!

Back to school...?

Sorry I really am bombarding you with Max pictures lately, I have a ton of recent sessions to catch up on, but I took these this morning and this is the first one I have edited. I am in love with this location (and this little boy). I was feeling to itch to bust out his fall clothes, so consider these  his "back to school pictures." What school? yea. I know. One year olds need back to school clothes too though, right?

challenge

I read a fun little blog challenge/assignment from a local photographer (what a fun idea!!) and decided to give it a try. The challenge was to take a picture that focuses on "wet eyelashes" specifically. Here's what I came up with!

a whoooooole lotta katie and brandon!

ok. I realize that I am posting an obscene amount of pictures. but you know what? I simply couldn't help myself! I was seriously in love with this couple, they were so sweet and so striking together. I loved his glasses, I loved her bouquet, all the details were perfect. So that's why I am subjecting you all to thousands. enjoy. =)
