SO excited I got to be a part of this couple's gender reveal!! I met Jackie and Paul when they let me come along and second shoot an engagement session with them and I had a blast! Jackie is also a photographer in Logan, check out her work here! She was so helpful and answered any questions I had and I have loved following her work ever since!
When she asked me to take pictures to help announce what they were having, I got super excited!! Jackie and Paul wanted a mountain look with snow being an added bonus. After scouting around Logan where most of it had melted, I was able to find some and was so happy!! This was my first time shooting in the snow and it was cold, but super pretty and worth it! I loved their idea to use balloons and could not wait for the session. A half hour before we were supposed to start, Jackie texted me they might be a little late because the baby was being stubborn. I was so happy they were able to find out what it was because I totally have been there. When we were finding out if Boston was a boy or girl, the nurse wasn't able to tell us the gender and I was a little over 22 weeks. I couldn’t wait to find out what it was and was so happy when they said it was a girl! I remember when we finally found out what me and my husband were having and how ecstatically happy we both were. It then felt so real and it was hard to believe we would be parents in just a few short months. Crazy to think to our surprise we would become parents two and a half months sooner than we anticipated ;) I am so happy for these two and can't wait for them to be parents! They will be the best! :)

SURPRISE! I cannot believe I was able to be a part of this adorable couple's special announcement! Alex and me went to high school together in Thatcher Arizona with her being two grades older. I have known Alex and her family for years and I remember being at her house when she opened her mission call to Seattle Washington. She is such a sweet person and I have always looked up to her as an example! I was so happy for her when she got married to her best friend a little over a year ago. Her and Dalton moved up to Cache Valley about a year ago and have loved it. I knew they would be perfect models for pictures and when I asked they, willingly said yes with excitement! A couple of days before their session Alex surprised me with two things I was SO happy about! When I visited my family in Thatcher I had brought my stroller for the airport and on the way to the airport I had forgotten it and it was too late to go back and get it. Alex and Dalton were just visiting her family in Thatcher and they brought my stroller back! I was so happy to have it back. But the second thing, and most exciting one, was that Alex asked if they could take a couple of pictures with a sonogram for an announcement that they were expecting!! I am so excited and thrilled for these two. While taking their pictures, all I would have to do was say look at each other and they would just start giggling and smiling uncontrollably! It was the cutest thing.
It seems just like yesterday that I was telling my husband Sean I was pregnant. I will never forget the look on his face or how we both embraced and shed tears of joy. But that's another story for another time ;) Congrats again you two! So happy for you!! |
