a young family

this family was just great to shoot! i was able to shoot them while i was on vacation in utah. we went to wheeler farm in the salt lake valley. the farm was busy and part of it was closed off due to excessive winter snow runoff, but we still got some good photos. i wasn't happy with the shots i got of the baby, so the next day we took some more at their home.  i LOVED those.
for the family photos below, i love the kids' expressions. kids are naturally unselfconscious--it's wonderful!




here are some individual pics of the boys

he was so easy to pose!




he only smiled for us because a dog was passing by!

here are the photos of the baby taken the next day--what a beautiful baby!


in these first pictures, we covered the arm of the couch with a gorgeous textured blanket the mom pulled out of the closet. we draped the baby over the arm of the couch and had a friend hold the rest of the blanket up to form a backdrop--i loved the effect.

we used the same blanket and draped it over the changing table and laid the baby in it. we turned the changing table toward the light from the window.
