Senior Siblings

Meet Malcolm and Taylor... These are the cutest brother and sister and I did some senior shots of both of them a few weeks ago. Malcolm is the actual senior, but his little sister Taylor is not far behind and so we did an early sehttp://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gifnior session with her as well. We had a great time, cracked up a few times (as you will see), and took some great pictures. There were too many to do together, so click on TAYLOR to see her slide show, and MALCOLM to see his... ENJOY!

Still Alive

One of my Friends shot me an e-mail today to find out if I was still alive because it has been so long since I have done a post. I have been crazy mad busy lately. However, I have made some changes in my company that will streamlines some things and it is all going to get better very soon. So, for all of those people out there who are waiting to see their pictures they will be coming very very soon! And, just so you know, I am "STILL ALIVE".

Suzanne and Trent came up to Logan about a month ago to do their engagement session. They happen to pick one of those rainy weekends. So, we did another shoot down at one of my favorite places to shoot, the Gateway.

It was a particularly fun shoot for me with regards to the groom Trent. I love to have the opportunity to get to know my couples, and Trent has been hard for me to get to know. Because of this I am so glad we were able to spend some more time together. I learned a couple of very valuable things about Trent. First, I should never try to pose Trent again. When he feels uncomfortable, he looks it! So, if I tell he what I want, and then let him get comfy and pose himself - Bingo!!!! Second, Trent needs a bit of coxing to get a great smile! On our first trip out it was such a yucky rainy day, and I was so concerned with lighting, and rain, and cold that I was not able to really get him to warm up to me. However, this time around there are so many great pictures of Trent smiling! Yea!

So, Suzanne is doing a fun photo shoot with some friends, and her bridals are coming up this weekend. She is honestly one of the most photogenic people I have ever taken pictures of and I am looking very forward to those upcoming shoots as well as her wedding at the Wells Fargo 23rd floor in January.

Confessional...

Sometimes I love to use my blog as a personal confessional... I have had some fun requests from some of my blog fans, so I thought every once and a while I would do a fun personal post. However, first let me take care of a little bit of business.

1. Today I have been editing an engagement I did last night and I am soooo excited to show everyone the pictures..... So, if you are on this blog right now hoping to see Tayia and Cameron, check back tomorrow to see their rocken pictures...

2. I am right in the middle of a big and exciting transition in my company, and all of those who I have shot recently are being soooo patient with my new and IMPROVED online proofing system. So, to update everyone it will not be ready until NEXT week! I ran into some hick-ups that I did not expect, so it pushed me back yet another week... I should be able to upload several events quickly, so the minute it is ready I will get everyone on there SOOOOO FAST!

3. I am completely booked through 2007 and I am no longer accepting any contracts for this year... Megan, my candid shooter is still available for one more December wedding, and for details e-mail me at momentsbykellee@yahoo.com. I have also started booking up for 2008, so if you are interested in reserving a date for 2008 call for a consultation!

4. Ok, now to the confessional part! Those of you that follow my blog know that I love to cook. I planted a big beautiful garden this year and my family enjoyed wonderful fresh fruits and veggies all summer long. So, this fall my friend Stacee and I decided to do some canning. Well, we kind of got carried away. We figured out the other night when we were finishing up our last batch of salsa that we had made 7 batches of salsa, and around 20 batches of pepper jelly, as well as 3 batches of BBQ Sauce. We have had so much fun. It has been years since I have canned and we have a total addiction to it now. I have consumed so much salsa that I am now on a break (refer to Ross and Rachelle). I have to stop so I don't make myself sick. Anyway, here are some funny pictures from my brand new obsession. Keep in mind that Stacee has just as much and we have already consumed at least as much as we have left. Just a warning to my friends and family out there if you don't want a can of salsa for Christmas start working on the excuse now... See you tomorrow with some fun new pictures of Tayia and Cameron's engagement.

Playing in the rain...

This weekend on a rainy blistery day I did an engagement shoot for Suzanne and Trent. They are from out of town and here for the day so we had to get it done rain or shine. We really did have a great time. We took a couple of umbrella's up the canyon and they were not worried about getting wet - they were such GOOD SPORTS. I am soooooo excited about Suzanne's bridals coming up in November. She has a beautiful smile and amazing hair and a flawless face. She is so photogenic and we are going to have a great time. These two are getting married in the Wells Fargo Tower in January! Here is a slide show of a few other pictures from their shoot. Suzanne and Trent - thanks for a fun afternoon and I can't wait to see both of you again soon!
