My baby boy turned one on October 12th!  I cannot believe it!  This has been the best year of my life.  Busy, crazy, yes!  Balancing being a full time mom and a full time business owner has been so insane, but so worth it.  I am a mommy first, it is the best job in the whole world.  Can you blame me?  Have you seen that sweet little face?  It is the most precious face ever!

On October 21st we had a big birthday party for Leo, lovingly referred to in my family as the Extravaganza :)  It was such a blast!  Family and friends came from near and far.  It was a very special day for my little family.

Plus my sweet family that helped so much with EVERYTHING to make this day all that I dreamed.

Below are some of my favorites from Leo's 1 year photo session.  I love this baby!

OH MY GOODNESS!!!!  That is all I have to say!  Tara out did herself styling this shoot.  She told me she wanted to do something fun, but this was more than I could have even imagined.  Amazing!  Tara is a photographer too, so it is always so intimidating to photograph a photographer.  But I am SO excited with how these came out!  I can't wait for their wedding next month!

I am going to be out of town July 23rd - August 1st, friends.  Going to Utah for some shoots and to see my fam.  I'll have limited internet and phone access but I will get back to everyone ASAP.  Have a great week and enjoy this SWEET engagement session!

I can't believe my little Leo is SEVEN months old!  He is my little man.  I can't get enough of him.  Can you blame me.  He is so precious!  I thought I would share these pictures that we took of him the other day.  The ones of Leo and I, my husband, Carlos took (and then I edited them).  Who also has his own photography business.  Check out his website HERE.  He is so awesome.

Oh my goodness!  I love this sweet face!

He is ALL over the place now!  Crawling and pulling himself up onto things.  I can't take my eyes off of him for a second.

I love this sequence!  His goofy grin in the first one, it kills me.  Pretty sure he was mid-blink, but it still cracks me up.

Me and my boy.  Oh how I love him!

I'm super lucky to have a husband that is so hands-on, loving and supportive.  I love to watch them together.  Even though Leo is a total momma's boy, I know someday really soon his daddy will be his hero.

I LOVED this session styled by Tonya Joy Photography!  I had more fun photographing this adorable couple.  I loved everything about it, the clothes, props, location, lighting.  It was an amazing combination.  Here are a few more of my favorites:

I am a proud BYU alum.  So, it is needless to say I am excited for March Madness that starts today.  I am excited to watch my Cougars play and hopefully win win win.  I saw this video and I LOVED it.  We are all excited about our Jimmer.  Soooo...Teach ME how to Jimmer :)
