Strottner Engagement pics round 2

It was sill raining on round 2, but I think we still got some keepers. Our first location attempt was at Lagoon, but with the recent hurricane, it looked like a war zone, so we went to the Garden Park Ward in Salt Lake City.

Strottner Engagement pics

Despite the gloomy skies and over the abundance of rain falling from the heavy cloud cover, this photo shoot turned out great. It never stopped raining the whole time we where there. We took these shots at Wheeler Farms. Ashley and Zac had a good attitude and we where able to get a good variety of shots. Enjoy.

Cool or Creepy

I had this great idea, but i'm not sure if it flopped or not. I had visions of it being so cool, but I'm doubting the outcome. I originally made this banner for our family blog, but i'm not sure it is cool enough? Maybe it's the text, maybe it's the layout, i don't know. but I spent so much time creating it, I wanted to post it somewhere. It was fun taking pictures of the kids, they really got into it. It was pretty easy, one off camera strobe hard left of subject triggered wirelessly from camera flash. Anyhow cool or creepy, you decide.

The Little Man

The little man has been climbing up on everything, he thinks it's so funny. It's scary when he climbs up the gate blocking the stairs and knocks it over. It's pretty much a 50/50 if he goes backwards onto the floor, or forward and goes for a ride down the stairs. Poor kid! He sure is growing fast!!

New Kiddy pics

We took this years family pictures at the Lagoon trail last week. It's one of our kids favorite spots because of all the animals.
It's hard to get the little ones to hold still for more than a few shots, but luckily we got a few keepers
F 3.2, 1/160 sec, ISO 250

Michelle held the frightened Paxton up on the rock, while Paxtons older brother and sisters danced around to keep his attention off of falling off the rock.

F 3.5, 1/100 sec, ISO 500

Sage is a natural, she did wonderful as usual and it's easy to see why the camera loves Sage!

F 3.2, 1/160 sec, ISO 320

Hunter is ham for sure, He was very patient even though taking family pictures is not on his top 10 list.

F 2.8, 1/320, ISO 200

Jade normally does very well, but she was not feeling the camera on this outing. This is one of only a few shots we got of her the whole evening.

Dahln & Angel Sept 29, 2009 Engagements

I was able to help Dahln and Angel with their engagement pictures. These shots where taken at the famous Lagoon train. It was a little early of Fall colors, but we liked how they turned out.
