Blog Give Away!

I am curious about how effective blogging is. I enjoy it, and I enyjoy looking at others, but I want to know if it really works. So, to test this out I thought I would do a blog give away. If you have 10 comments on your session (on my blog)you will get a little accordion book to show off your family, designed around your session. Also, if someone books a session based on your referral to Cook Photography, you will receieve a calendar (again, designed around your session.) I am extremely excited about these new products, and I hope to give them away as often as I can!











I have been after the T family for quite awhile to take their picture. They are some of the truest people I have ever met. It was a wonderful afternoon, and I really pushed myself, so thank you T family for giving me the opprortunity! You guys are awesome!

New Year, New Year Celebration's!

This family definitley has the best reception!

I am off today to PPA in Nashville Tennessee, and I wanted to leave with these images on my blog. I am so excited for the New Year, and the new ideas I have for Cook Photography. LA family, it was my pleasure to take these pictures. I couldn't be more thrilled with how they turned out! Your family is picture perfect!

"The Children Were Nestled all Snug In Their Beds...

While Visions of Sugar Plums Danced in Their Heads!"



This is one of those sessions that tests your ability as a photographer, and I loved every minute of it! The thoughts had been in place for over a year on how this should play out, and in my dreams I don't think it could have gone better. Thanks Mom for always being my biggest fan! I love you so much, and I had a GREAT time doing this for you. It was all around awesome!

Merry Christmas

What a wonderful Christmas it was this year. I finished working last weekend, and my family and I had such a great time enjoying the season. Between American Girls, and all the Transformers the elves can make, my children are set for years to come. I hope everyone had wonderful Holiday!
Love to all family and friends!

Being so Candid

I love photographing the S family because they always tell such of story with their photographs. D, are one of of those people who make it look like I walked up and happened to stumble on this great family moment. Thank you for always making my job so effortless! I am trying so hard to keep up with everyone's pictures for the holiday rush, that I have not been able to blog like I want. I have some really fun session to showcase before Christmas, so keep checking if you haven't seen your family's sneek peek! I hope everyone is ejnoying the holiday season. D, these images are some of my favorites. You are one of my best friends, thanks for always being there for me!

Getting Us All Together

How do you get high school seniors, and college students, and work to coordinate their schedules? I don't know how cute R did it, but it all came together to be an awesome family picture!!! I am so glad I was able to squeeze this family in this year. R and D are some of my favorite people, and growing up they always made me feel that I was special. And cousins, you are make me laugh, and I look forward to when we can all get together! I can't believe I was babysitting these four, (18 years ago!?) time really does fly. It was a really fun afternoon A family! Next year lets go for an adventure!

"Fall"ing in Love...A Perfect way to End the Autumn Season

This couple really did get some of the last leaves of the season. It was a beautiful time of year to be down at the Salt Lake Temple. When it comes to photographing temple weddings, one of my favorites is the Salt Lake Temple, but I have grown a little tired of the pictures on the stairs. Maybe because I don't care for confrontation, and sometimes you really have to fight to get your family parties on the stairs. So, after doing the C family on the stairs I have to say, they make those stairs look good! I love how the whole day turned out. D&L, you are wonderful, and I couldn't be more happy for you. I know it was a long day, Thank you for hanging out with me til the last minute. It was completely worth it!

Fall Family

Every once in a while a cute mom comes along and says I just don't think my kids are going to cooperate, and then we get images like these! This was an awesome family session, and we got adorable pictures of the children. It was a lot of fun to take A's family pictures, and I know it was hectic, but I LOVE how everything turned out. No worries J, your kids did great. I hope you have a great time in Disneyland!

Wedding Day Bliss

I am so excited to FINALLY be blogging this couples wedding and bridal pictures. Their wedding day was over a month ago, and going back through their proofs was such a happy reminder a what a wonderful day I had photographing them! N & S, I have loved getting to know you over the past few months, and I look forward to seeing more of you! Congratulations both of you! What a great day, thank you for having me be apart of your memories!

Also, I was reading through my last blog post, and I realized that it sounded like I was talking to just the A family about deadlines, And I would like to clarify and say that anyone who would like to have pictures done for Christmas Gifts or Cards the Deadline is December 4th.

Sorry to make it seem like I singled you out A family! Please call me if you have any questions.

Fall Family

I love doing families with small children, because you always get the unexpected. Each of these children were so sweet throughout the whole session. I have a lot of M laughing, and those are the moments I love to photograph. This family is so wonderful, and getting to you A throughout the past year has been an honor! Thanks for being so patient with me.

Please remember if you are wanting to have portraits done in time for Christmas Cards the deadline for your order is

DECEMBER 4TH.
