Sweet, sweet baby

2012-02-22T22:41:00.005-06:00

I was so excited to meet little Ms. Brooklyn! I love newborns, and Brooklyn had me wrapped around her little finger in 0.1 second. She is so sweet, and barely made a peep. She was a perfect little model! I will always think of my kids as babies, but I realized just how big my kids are getting when I held Brooklyn. She is tiny and perfect. Her parents are amazing, and they are already wonderful parents. Here is her slideshow...

Carlee and Gregg

2012-01-14T16:50:00.006-06:00

It has been so long since I have blogged. I have a lot to catch up on, but I'll start with a recent engagement session.

I love engagement sessions!! I am such a romantic, and I love being able to capture the love between young couples. This was a particularly special session for me - I have worked with Carlee before, and I adore her. She is not only gorgeous, but incredibly sweet. It was my first time meeting her future husband, Gregg, and they are a perfect match. They are so in love, so fun, and so comfortable in front of the camera. A photographer's dream couple!

Carlee and Gregg, thank you for allowing me to capture your engagement portraits. I wish you a lifetime of happiness together!

Another Beautiful Senior

Kelsie is so sweet, beautiful, and down to earth. It was such a pleasure getting to know her! She is amazing - she knows exactly what she wants to do after college, and it going all the way to Idaho in the fall! Kelsie, thank you so much for allowing me to take your portraits. You are such a great sport (biting sand flies and all!) I had a great time!

Beautiful, sweet, and did I mention smart?

2011-04-10T17:47:00.002-05:00

I am amazed by this young woman. She has so much going for her! She is so kind, incredibly intelligent, and knows exactly what she wants to do for with her life, and she is going to make the world a better place. And when you see her portraits, you'll also see that she is gorgeous!!! It was such a pleasure working with her. Enjoy!

Gorgeous Senior!

2011-03-26T19:15:00.002-05:00

I had the great pleasure of meeting Kelsey over spring break. She is sweet, fun, gorgeous, and a barrel racer!! I am so impressed by that last one. She has a way with horses, and it was so fun to see her in her element.

Thank you, Kelsey for the opportunity to photograph you! Hope you enjoy your images!

The W Family

2010-11-20T10:28:00.002-06:00

I had an amazing time photographing this family!! This is such a special family. The love they have for one another is so obvious, and it was a joy to capture it! Mom and Dad were high school sweethearts, and have been together for 16 years. They are (obviously) a beautiful family, but I just loved capturing their special relationship. And the kids did a GREAT job! Hope you enjoy!

The H Family

2010-11-20T09:14:00.007-06:00

I have known this family for many, many years and they are very dear friends of ours. This was a super quick session in between football games! :)

Are you ready?

2010-09-10T23:03:00.005-05:00

I went shopping last week and saw Christmas items out!!
It may be 95 degrees out right now, but it’s time to start thinking about holiday cards because...

MINI SESSIONS ARE HERE!

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a mini session and a regular session?

A regular session is a completely custom photography experience. You choose the location(s), you can change clothes, and the session lasts approximately 1 ½ hours. We document the different relationships in the family (father/son, wife/husband, etc.) as well as individual portraits. You receive approximately 20-30 proofs in your gallery.

A mini session is based on limited availability and will be geared toward capturing the perfect holiday card photo. The session lasts approximately 20 minutes. If time permits, we will also capture groupings and individual portraits. The mini session includes 25 custom press printed cards with envelopes and 3 gift prints.

What do the cards look like?

There are many cards to choose from. They are all press printed on high quality cardstock. You may choose to have a 5 x 7 or a 5 x 5 design, and it may be front and back. Alternatively, you may order bifold or trifold cards for an additional fee. Extra sets are also available (sold in sets of 25).

Here are some examples that are available.

When do the sessions take place?

Sessions will take place in the evenings to best utilize natural light.

I'm ready to book a session! What next?

Contact me at whitney@BreathtakingMoments.com, and we will set it up! Due to the limited number of spots available, we require payment of your session fee within 3 days of booking to secure your date and time. If payment is not received in that time, we reserve the right to release your spot.

This photo was in the news, and it is such a beautiful moment. I just had to share!

This is four year old Bethany Bennethum. Her father is in formation, about to head to Iraq. Nobody had the heart to pull her away.

Thank you to all of our servicemen and women and their families who sacrifice so much for us.

And a VERY special shout out to my brother, who left for his deployment in the Middle East on Monday. Please keep him and his family in your prayers.

I love this candid moment right after the ceremony.

Operation Love Reunited

There is a wonderful organization that I am proud to be a member of called Operation Love Reunited. When our soldiers return from Iraq and Afghanistan, photographers go along and document their reunion with their families. I am proud of my brother who is a Navy pilot, and of his wife and sons, who sacrifice so much to serve our country.

About

2008-03-17T21:59:00.004-05:00

I am so blessed! I have three amazing, beautiful, young children that I love more than words can say, and I have been married to my best friend for 13 wonderful years.

I fell in love with photography when my husband and I lived in Australia. I got my first manual SLR ten years ago, and haven't put the camera down since. My poor children must be in the running for the most photographed children ever!

I would love the opportunity to capture your life; the moments that will make you laugh for years to come, and the moments that take your breath away.
