Creepy, but I liked it. Totally kidding, that's not the least bit creepy! Beautiful colors and photos. I really like the photo where the youngest girl is laying on her mom's cute tummy, all the kids looks so angelic in that one, precious!!

2012-05-15T08:15:55.189-07:00

I don't think that's creepy at all. It just shows how much you love people. I too end up loving almost everyone I photograph.

Ha ha. Thanks for sharing.

LOL! That is hilarious. Makes me feel better about quilting in my head every time I see a cool pattern in someone's temple dress during a session.

2012-05-13T18:42:12.882-07:00

OH I love this post. I think being a photographer makes you look at everything in a whole new light. My neighbor told me that when I was taking some bridals in the field next to her house she had to explain to her husband that it wasn't the field that I liked, but the sunset behind it... I laughed it off, it wasn't actually the sunset behind the field that I liked, it was the tall dead grass that the sun was just glowing off of... That field is beyond gorgeous. I am beyond grateful for having my eyes opened to the beauty all around, even in a "dead ugly" field of grass. :)
p.s. I LOVE these pictures. Missionaries really do have a special light about them.

Mindy I love your blog! We're reading "The Princess Bride" by William Goldman for book club. Do you want to come? It's pretty funny.

2012-05-13T12:02:28.692-07:00

OMGOODNESS! I do it all the time...and toddlers do not share my affection for the perfect light. They have no patience with me...I always find myself staring at things especially in the golden evenings.

Oh Mindy, you can't bore me. I read every sing...

2012-05-13T11:50:11.769-07:00

Oh Mindy, you can't bore me. I read every single word of that post. I've got a million books I have read on my Kindle, well maybe not a million, but I am usually always good for a book suggestion. Recent books I have read and loved: Kristin Hannah's Home Front (all of her books are good though, I suggest them all), Nora Roberts (yes I love most of her books) Chasing Fire, The Search, Kathleen Grissom's The Kitchen House. Currently reading Nora Robert's newest book The Witness, so far it is really good. My absolute favorite author of all time is Jodi Picult. My favorite of hers is probably Handle with Care, but I also love my Sisters Keeper, they are probably tied for 1st. I have all of Jodi Picult's books in actual book form if you ever wanted to borrow. Feel free to hit me up for book suggestions anytime. And if you got through reading all of that, then I am glad I didn't bore you either;)

Love her! Love the pic!

Thanks, Mindy. :)
