Extended Family Fun

(Sarah Morris Photography) — Sun, 02 Jun 2019 03:17:31 GMT

When I'm shooting an extended family I kind of have to let the perfectionist photographer in me go. Schedules are tight and attention spans are short so I roll with whatever the kids give me, creating images that showcase how life really was at that moment in time. These moments come in between the posed photos and they are usually my very favorite.

Flowers, a field and Finley

Last night we went out just before the craziest thunderstorm of the season to take Finley's photos for her LDS baptism announcements. The night was gorgeous and I love how the breeze brought beautiful movement to the image. I normally don't like to shoot in the wind but it worked perfectly with her long blonde hair.

Night at the Greenhouse

I look forward to my trip to the greenhouse all winter. I'm usually filling up my wagon with all sorts of fun things for my garden. Two weeks ago I ended up at the greenhouse three times with my wagon filled with camera gear or cute little babies, never buying a thing. I'm lucky they didn't kick me out. This week I'll make it up to them.

Foggy Street

I don't know if I will ever get to shoot in fog like this again. We don't get this type of weather in Idaho very often and usually I'm shooting in the evenings when it has all burned off. We started out in the living room mid-day then headed outside to this cool scene.

Snowy, Winter shoot with 7 beauties

Fun shoot with this family while everyone is home for Christmas. We lucked out with a beautiful white backdrop.

Chickens and bunnies

This beauty is a comedy writer in LA. I was nervous going into it thinking that I would have to be genuinely funny to get natural smiles. Usually potty jokes do the trick. The chickens and bunnies helped me out, I mean, what's not to love about being swarmed by animals while you're trying to pose for a photo?

Baby Rose

This little doll is my newest niece. She's just perfect.

Peak Leaves

We'd had this session scheduled for months. You never know when and where the leaves will turn. Luckily, we landed on a perfect night with great weather and found where the trees were at their finest.

Home means Nevada

I was in Las Vegas recently taking photos of my new niece. I had an extra few hours to shoot this family at their home. It worked so much better than any of the locations I was scouting. I was struggling to find a great spot in the dessert.

Twice as Nice

These twin boys were so much fun. They were a little skeptical of me at first but by the end they were coming up with all sorts of ideas and poses to try out. I think we have some photographers in the making.

Golf Course Senior Shoot

Color winners

I loved how these colors looked with the hues at the barn the evening we shot these photos. These kids were a ton of fun.

Hazy Senior Shoot

This evening in August the sky will heavy with smoke from the forest fires. We started a little earlier than normal and took advantage of the slight pink filter it gave us.

Baby Logan

Another sweet newborn session. Logan was determined to not let that binkie out of his mouth. We were laughing so hard at his pure determination. Luckily we were able to pry it away.
