sneak peek of the gorgeous sam and handsome hal!

oh these two. they are just adorable. there's not much more to say right now, but LOOK AT THEM!





once again, the wonderful lee stylized this shoot! we wanted a sweet little french-inspired shoot (you will get a much better taste of that when i finish editing them!), and lee really rose to the occasion. lee, you are amazing!


i know it seems like all i've had to post lately are "sneak peeks", but i've just been running around like a mad woman! we've picked up many new shoots for the coming weeks, as well as a few weddings, so i'm trying to stay on top of it all! i'm doing some new product testing, which is one reason i've been slow to get the last few shoots fully posted, but i expect within the next week or two, we'll have plenty to show you :)

well, we've got a wedding in moab, utah tomorrow, then a busy busy week next week. wish us luck!

we <3 you all :)

sam and sarah | sneak peek!

this shoot was very special to me.  

for a while, i've been begging my baby brother (sam) and his girlfriend (sarah) to be in a photoshoot for me and i wanted lee to stylize a little somethin special for them, and boy, did she go above and beyond!  

she had it just perfect: some records and record player on the adorable blanket in the middle of an orchard, followed by a little bistro-style dessert table.  

well, the shoot was going just swimmingly, when lee asks sam "are there any shot ideas either of you have?", and sam says "yeah, actually . . ." and i was like "wha? my little brother has an idea for a picture? weird.." then out of nowhere, he gets on one knee and freakin proposes!!?  well, i'm a little slow and it honestly took me 30 seconds before i realized it was for real, so here i am just snapping pictures.  when i finally realized it WAS in fact real, i felt SO happy to be a part of it :)  he did such a good job, and of course she said 'yes'!
it was pretty fun to say i got to take part in an actual engagement shoot hehe.

after we got over all the excitement, the shoot continued with just a little bit more emotion than the beginning :)  it was wonderful.

see? see what i'm talkin' about?  lee is incredible. 

i can't wait to post the rest!  BUT i promised myself i would finish the pictures from sean and chloe's shoot and post those first (in the next few days!! woot!).


lee and i are really excited about doing these stylized couple shoots, so if anyone is interested in shoots like these, please email me ASAP! (madelynethomas@gmail.com).

a few pictures from my weekend.

this weekend, we went to visit my lovely grandparents in Torrey, UT.  it was such a relaxing time, and they were so hospitable.
my grandpa showed me and taught me about everything in his greenhouse and garden.  i loved every second of it, he's so interesting and passionate about gardening, and i felt like it was a really great bonding experience!
my grandma made the most delicious food, and instigated some very enlightening conversation on politics, religion, the usual.  we also chatted a little about life and love.
going to Torrey is very therapeutic.  i hope to go back again soon!

and while it wasn't windy and freezing (for only about 10 minutes), i stepped out to play with moses and take some pictures of the scenery.  it's gorgeous there.
