Toolson Family | Utah County Family Photos

Family sessions in Utah are so magical! I had an amazing time capturing Sarah and her sweet family. Funny enough Sarah and I are both from the same town in Florida and ended up in Utah. It was such a joy to connect again and make some portraits for her family. My nostalgic old-soul loves the opportunity to create memories that families will look back on for a long time. I want to create imagery that feels like a worn antique, an old home, or a classic story read for generations. They’re things you can’t replicate; their age and imperfections tell a tale that make them unique. In the same way, I want to tell a stories with artistry that has character and a bit of ethereal je ne sais quoi. I’m not seeking to create something trendy or commonplace; I want to preserve a distinctly individual and authentic glimpse into a family’s history that will still be cherished years down the road. Message me if you’d like to make something like this together.

If relaxed, peaceful and joyful feel with breathtaking backdrops is what you love, please message me to inquire about booking one of my limited dates this upcoming Autumn!

A Mother's Example | Cherry Blossom Portraits

If there is one thing motherhood has taught me, it is that my children learn more from what I do than what I say. If I find true enjoyment in something, they seem to enjoy it also. If I complain about something, I find they mimic my complaints later. They mirror the way I treat them, the way I talk to others, and the emotions I express. To my dismay, they often mirror my negative qualities along with the positive. “The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree,” they say. And it’s true. So what kind of apples am I growing? What kind of tree am I?

I am so grateful to be photographing some incredible families these last few months. My goal is for everyone I work with to feel a sense of home, comfort, and beauty in the images we create together…like your favorite book or a family heirloom passed down. I want to capture your history as it’s happening, but also incorporate the nostalgia of everything that has made you who you are now. Maybe you’ve felt that way before about something. You see it and it just *feels* right. It belongs. It’s very YOU. It’s more than just making an image that makes you feel good about yourself or something others might deem “picture-perfect.” I want something more real. I want it to be beautiful because what God has made is beautiful, and He made you! That is what I want for every family.
