{baby h}/Newborn Nampa Photographer

To be honest, I was a bit nervous for this photo shoot.  I am very specific  about my newborn shoots.  The temperature needs to be just right, the lighting is always something that gives me anxiety, and the age of the baby is the most important factor for a newborn photo.  So, when I was asked to take pictures of a 4 month old, I was first very excited, and then the nerves within my stomach began crawling around.  4 month olds don't sleep very soundly and they usually hate being naked.  Well, this little man surpassed my expectations!  Thank you Angie for the opportunity to take pictures of your sweet little man; he is so tender!

{brianna + tyler}/Idaho's Bridal Photographer

As I waited for Brianna and Tyler to exit the temple this morning, I got a bit choked up. I have had one of the greatest experiences over the last two months with this sweet couple. She comes from a sweet family with the most amazing parents. He comes from Germany, went to Mexico on an LDS mission and came back to Boise to sweet Brianna off her feet. Brianna is shy but very sophisticated, Tyler is a jokester who has devised the greatest way for creating the most realistic smile. Together they make a lovely couple who I will miss terribly.

So, without further hesitation, here is their bridal shoot from a  few weekends ago, on the windiest, probably chilliest day of the year. I had promised myself I wouldn't post their pictures until their big day.

Congratulations Brianna and Tyler! May your eternal life be full of laughs, love, and everything lovely! (I can't wait for your fabulous wedding reception this evening!  What a great party it will be.)

{shannon turns 10}/Nampa Tween Photographer

As I was at  work (meaning, my work in the medical field!) I received a phone call from a friend whose daughter has been in my Primary Activity Day's since she turned 8.  She wanted to plan on something special for Shannon, so, she thought it would be fun for me and Shannon to spend her birthday afternoon together and have a photo shoot! Well, you don't have to twist my arm Mary or ask me twice to spend the afternoon with your sweet daughter Shannon.

Birthdays are the biggest deal ever in the Bledsoe home, so, I was completely stoked to make Shannon's Birthday a little more special. We went and picked out balloons in her favorite color before the shoot and got hot chocolate after the pictures were all done. She was the biggest trooper EVER, and after telling her exactly that a million times, she finally asked, "What is a trooper?!" It was FRIGID cold and WINDY and yet she smiled with ease and did what I asked! (I even stopped at an old car lot and asked if she wouldn't mind hopping on top of one of the dusty old cars. She didn't even blink before she said, "YES!") If all of my subjects were like you Shannon!

The day was fabulous in my eyes, I hope the day was pretty special to Shannon too!

Happy 10th Birthday Shannon! You are something special!

{happy valentine's day} love, Trey and Tian

Happy Valentine's Day from the Bledsoe's!

As you can see, life has been quite hectic for Treyman since beginning all day-everyday kindergarten. I haven't had the opportunity to go out and have a REAL photo shoot with Trey since school began. On the other hand, I had a very productive and rewarding photo shoot with Tian a few weeks before the big Vday at one of my all time favorite locals! He was such a trooper, even taking 3 potty breaks due to potty training!

We love all of you, our friends and family! We hope you had a lovely Valentine's Day!






The next 2 pictures were given to classmates, daycare friends, teachers/office aids/principals/Primary Teachers and our sitter!  Trey's classmates loved receiving a valentine from Trey WITH his picture on it.  Either that, OR they were lying to me!
