Really it seems like just yesterday I was taking little {M}'s newborn pictures. She has grown so much and is just so darling! I've had the privilege of photographing her several times during her first year of life. What a little sweetie!
The sun is finally shining! And I hope it's hear to stay. Of course this is Utah so I wouldn't be shocked if we get more snow before the burning hot months. Anyway, tonight I had a session with this cute little family. All the little ones were pretty shy.. And it took them quite a while to warm up. They were all so sweet. :) Here's a little preview.
Update May 2, 2011: My husband decided to take a break from school for the summer!! :) That means more photo sessions for me!!
Well, after a lot of thought.. I've decided to put somewhat of a hold on my photography business. If you already have a session scheduled with me or we have already talked you have nothing to worry about. I always get an itch to do what I love, so I will still be taking a few sessions over the summer, so feel free to email me and I will let you know if I'm available. The reason I decided this was because of these guys.. Recently, my husband went back to school. With him working full time all day and doing school full time all night, I've become somewhat of a single mom. I have found that I just don't have the time to fit photographer into my hectic little life. Plus I want to spend as much time with these little guys and my sweet husband (when I do see him) as possible. You can still email me at heather@photosbyhm.com to see if I'm available. If not I know a few wonderful photographers that I can refer you too. Thank you for your understanding!
I've really had insomnia the last little while! I just can't sleep! So I've been up editing pics of my little one.. He is so sweet! I wish his older brother would cooperate with me so I could get some cute pics of him too! Here is one to share with you. :) Yes, he is a big time drooler! <3
I was able to do my first session of the year on New Years day. We all FROZE! It was a whopping 14 degrees outside.. and that was in the sun. It was one of the fastest sessions I've ever done. Poor little ones and poor mom and dad!!
2010 has been a great year for me! Not only did I meet some wonderful people doing sessions, but my second baby boy was born. He is the happiest baby I know, and makes me smile. :) Here he is sporting the hat his grandma made him. I was able to capture a lot of great images this year. I feel like I'm always growing so much in my photography and know I still have more room to grow! It's hard to pick my favorites of the year.. but I will do my best.. in no particular order..
And on to the giveaway.. I always enjoy giving back.. and I do what I can.. So I decided that this year I want to give a free session with a CD to a deserving family, who otherwise wouldn't be able to afford it. You can email me at heather@photosbyhm.com telling me why you deserve the session or tell me about someone you know that you think deserves it. Entries due by January 31st and the winner will be announced the first week of February. Session must take place in Utah. Preferably, within 30 miles of Utah county.. but I do occasionally travel further north to Brigham City and also south to St. George.
I am looking forward to 2011! I hope it to be a great year! :)
I am a stay-at-home mom and photographer. My passion for photography has been with me ever since my dad gave me my first point and shoot camera at the age of 7. My love for the art became even stronger after having my first child.
