Merry Christmas Mickelsons 2011

2011-12-22T18:05:00.000-07:00

Love this family...love this baby...love this season. You guys look great! Merry Christmas to all and to all a great family picture.

2011-12-12T01:49:00.000-07:00

One of the best things about Christmas is that often, time is spent with Grandparents. I had a great time in this session with these wonderful Grandparents and posterity. Merry Christmas!

gadd family

2011-12-01T16:31:00.000-07:00

I love boys...don't know why but I would love to have more boys in my little family...so naturally I was thrilled to shoot this family of boys.

They recently added Thing 1 and Thing 2...:)

awwww....I have a new nephew

2011-11-25T11:36:00.001-07:00

This is my newest nephew...this is my only brother...finally someone to carry on the "Morgan" name. I am in love with this little guy and his kissable lips. Congrats you two crazy kids for a great little addition.

C Family

2011-11-17T01:02:00.000-07:00

I love kids. They are honest, hilarious, creative...and this kid had it all.

Logan...class of 2012

2011-11-16T13:29:00.000-07:00

Extreme sports...hunter....fisher....loves his dogs....this kid has got a lot going on. Have a great senior year Logan.

Peck Family

2011-11-06T21:54:00.000-07:00

Who thought manure and cows could actually be a great subject for photography. A fun family session on their dairy and near an old barn that I would love to make my house. With some cute boys and great shoes (mom)...it was a success.

sisters, brother and cousin

2011-11-04T21:17:00.000-06:00

I love kids, I love the fall....the perfect equation for a great photo session.

Called to Serve...

2011-10-26T02:31:00.000-06:00

Elder C is off on his mission now. But of course we had to get some family pictures before departure. Another great family, great backdrop and beautiful (yet chilly) weather...I love fall sessions.

Hansen Family...sneak peak

2011-10-07T00:18:00.001-06:00

football, cuteness and a baptism coming up...busy family of 5 takes time out for a great photo session. thanks for a fun day!

tea party

2011-09-09T01:54:00.000-06:00

I've wanted to do this session for a long time...and its taken me even longer to get around and post these. What a fun time with my kids. When I told them that we were going to have a tea and cupcake party in the "forest"...they both were so excited. I love these moments as a mother.

divas, fun, dorothy shoes and frozen yogurt

2011-09-06T20:34:00.002-06:00

What a fun session. I am always wanting to shoot "outside the box". Be daring, be a little different. The B"s gave me different. Little K gave me some serious Diva attitude, the girl needs to be in the movies, and that is exactly where she wants to be.

I always wanted to be in the movies, but I don't have the star personality that this little gal has. Thanks guys, for a great night of stepping outside the box.

boys, boys and more boys

2011-09-02T09:20:00.000-06:00

What a good lookin' group of boys. Thanks for a great session!

Baby Boy Bo

2011-08-25T07:08:00.000-06:00

Welcome little guy! So glad you are finally here.

Kade and Jill....married

2011-08-22T23:08:00.001-06:00

Congratulations you two crazy kids. What a fun couple, from the great boots to the amazing personalities...this was a fun session. Best of luck to you two...forever!

Evan and Katie

2011-08-15T22:09:00.000-06:00

Possible future musicians here...we had fun "playing" during this session. Aren't they just too cute?

yummy newborn goodness

2011-08-08T22:11:00.000-06:00

Awww man, I want one. Look how precious he is, we really got some great sleeping ones. Even the last one...yup, he did that all on his own. Sleeping in his hands, gotta love it.

Congratulations!

2011-08-07T22:51:00.000-06:00

Gary and Angela...what a beautiful couple. I had so much fun with these guys...they had some personality that every photographer dreams of. Best wishes in your new life together.

just 4 days old

2011-07-10T23:38:00.000-06:00

"...twinkle, twinkle little star..." I love babies...have I mentioned that I love babies. This is a cute one too. He was a dream...and a dreamer. Slept through most of the session...until we really wanted him to sleep. Funny how that works.

Beautiful Heidi and baby #3

2011-07-09T22:21:00.001-06:00

Table for Forty-2

2011-07-03T17:53:00.000-06:00

What an awesome family. I love big families...considering I grew up in one, with 6 girls and one boy, I am kinda fond of 'em.

This family was a hoot to shoot. Eight kids, 25 grandkids, and two very happy grandparents. What a crew.

In the middle of all the madness...Matriarch and Patriarch...living, laughing and loving it all.

I am getting a little choked up just posting this and remembering how happy they all were that day.

Thanks guys!

Tuckers

2011-06-23T23:59:00.000-06:00

Siblings are so fun...especially when they are young and so cute with each other. And this little princess...she's the only granddaughter with eight grandsons. How fun!

Introducing Brecken

2011-06-19T19:58:00.001-06:00

What a sweet little guy. Our good friends just had their fourth baby...and fourth boy. How fun! Carl made me this amazing little prop bed and I just had to use it...mom and baby were so great to spend a bit of time outside...despite the cold weather...yup, cold weather in June.

Just look at that baby hair...I love it!

He even got a little shy and modest...what a sweetheart.

Sweet Layla

2011-06-12T23:50:00.001-06:00

Introducing Layla...little baby girl born on the day of my last post...of her mother looking radiant and ready to add baby #3. Isn't she beautiful? She was such a gem to capture and just a teeny little peanut. I wanted to just hold her more than take pictures, but we got the shot and then I cuddled a bit. Thanks mommy.

Baby girl...born today!

2011-05-19T09:46:00.002-06:00

I am so excited. I did these pictures before our trip to the east coast and Caribbean...and I am not just posting them, but the coolest thing, is that this little baby is being born today.

Can't wait to meet the beauty. If she looks anything like her mother....she will be gorgeous.

Congrats, you guys.

Allie...class of 2011

2011-04-25T00:09:00.003-06:00

It's been a while, but the weather is finally warm enough for pics....and class of 2011 is just itching to be out of school. How exciting! This cute gal is my cousin and a sweetheart. And what a talented ball player, on her way to big things....college ball, late nights studying (maybe late nights of playing), & the good 'ol days of being young and in college...Have a blast girl!

Growing up fast

2011-03-12T18:19:00.003-07:00

This little gal is growing up and walking now. Crazy how time flys...did a baby session with her. And she has got some great dance moves.

Baby boy 2011

2011-02-21T21:44:00.003-07:00

Ok, maybe I am just too baby hungry, but I was in heaven doing this session. What a beautiful baby boy. I wanted to just take him home with me. He is precious.

little girls, little girls, little girls...

2010-12-14T22:13:00.003-07:00

Beautiful girls, beautiful dresses and a great piano...makes for great pictures.

take it inside

2010-12-12T08:46:00.002-07:00

I was thrilled when we finally got some snow around here (which is now gone due to the rain...ugh), but last week when I had everybody schedule for their family Christmas pics...the weather was a little questionable. It was getting cold, so we went indoors and did a few pics...it all worked out in the end.

feet

2010-12-10T19:45:00.002-07:00

I love pictures of feet, so when this cute family asked for feet pictures...I was more than willing to comply. New parents and their baby, some of my favorite memories.

Snow and all...

2010-12-10T19:32:00.002-07:00

I am so grateful for the snow we have gotten...even though the rain washed it all away today...at least I got some great sessions in while the snow was here.

It was so cold, but they toughed it out. Way to go D Family.

First of many Christmas Card sessions...

2010-12-08T22:09:00.002-07:00

What a darling family. It was such a cold day, and these kids were amazing. We finally got some snow here in Twin Falls...before Thanksgiving, so I was in heaven with the beautiful snow and a family so willing to jump right in. Thanks

brothers...

2010-12-05T22:51:00.002-07:00

siblings...how fun. nothing better than a brother or sister connection. be prepared for lots of pictures coming up in the next few weeks...been busy for the holiday season.

Back with Wedding Bliss

2010-11-05T21:55:00.002-06:00

I recently followed my favorite photographer in Michigan...at a wedding. Still haven't been able to get to those pictures...but here is a recent wedding that I did of my daughter's birth uncle and his new bride. Congratulations...pictures of Michigan coming sometime soon.

Aspiring Model

2010-09-09T07:38:00.003-06:00

My first model session. This young man hopes to pursue a career in being a fitness model. I love fitness and had a short career in modeling...so naturally this session was fun. Good luck D!

Abby girl

2010-08-23T09:11:00.003-06:00

Six months old and ready to rock and roll...little Abby was trying to crawl during our session. Get ready mom and dad...she's a mover and a groover.

Roe

2010-08-09T08:24:00.003-06:00

I love yellow, and in pictures...it just shines. Another fun family session by the lake. I love summertime.

Heward Family

2010-08-04T23:00:00.002-06:00

Love a good family session when the family brings energy with them...makes for some great pictures.

Birthday Girl

2010-08-01T23:36:00.004-06:00

In honor of my little princess's birthday...here's a post of my recent session with my kids. Kya is 4 today and we had fun doing pictures. Then of course we have some of Zander...18 months old last week and an amazing personality. He has many faces, I was able to capture just a few.

Happy Birthday sweet girl...love you so much. BTW...grandparents and birthparents...I have a disc of all these pictures and more for you.

Table for...six

2010-07-23T19:21:00.005-06:00

Families are great, and when you get a great family with a lot of love to share...I am blessed to capture moments like these.

New Love

2010-07-21T07:32:00.004-06:00

There are miracles everyday in life, but they always feel amazing. This couple is definitely enjoying their new miracle.

I love capturing newborns...they always have something fresh to bring to the session.

sweet little K

2010-07-20T06:35:00.003-06:00

Its hard to say much about this little guy, just look at him, he takes your breath away. A little angel in his own right.

Nicole Van Photography

2010-07-15T08:00:00.003-06:00

As a photographer, I am always trying to improve to better serve my clients. I have a few mentors, other photographers that I admire their work. One in particular is Nicole Van, a Utah photographer that specialized in weddings and portraits. Her work is amazing and she manages to turn pictures into works of art. Her color and lighting is something of a wonder, it takes your breath away.

So she is having a workshop, and I am trying to win a spot there. One of my entries is to post this. She also sells these amazing action sets that really do vamp up a picture...its fun to play around and find new things she has to offer. Check out her online store...you might just find something that you love...I did!

Laurel

2010-07-13T10:54:00.003-06:00

I am a little behind, but here is a recent session with a beautiful 8 year old, that had so much to offer...especially personality. She just shines on camera. By the way...this is big sis to "blue eyes".

The Newest Addition

2010-07-07T06:57:00.003-06:00

So this little guy is the newest addition to my family. My sister (the baby of six girls) had a little baby boy...we call him "Shortstop". He is so cute...well, just check out for yourselves.

Little Miss M and big brother C

2010-06-22T22:27:00.003-06:00

Big brother certainly had a mind of his own, and a fantastic personality to match. What an awesome big brother too, to a beautiful baby girl.

sleeping sweetness

2010-06-17T08:50:00.004-06:00

Sometimes its a challenge to get babies to sleep during their session...I don't blame them...naked, in a cold unfamiliar environment...who would be comfortable enough to sleep.

Well, this little angel was just great. It was hard not to just take pictures all day, since she was sleeping so well.

Introducing jjc

2010-06-08T01:40:00.004-06:00

paulaKphotography is featuring Jenni Jackson Clothing. My sister's friend designs the cutest dresses and I brought a few to Twin Falls for your enjoyment. She is selling them for half price...sweet deals for darling clothes.

Take a look at these gorgeous dresses and contact me if you want a one of a kind jjc dress.

I only have a few, some of what you see here...selling for 50% off last seasons line. Can't wait to see what she will come up with for next season.

Remember Blue Eyes...

2010-05-30T17:51:00.003-06:00

Little Blue Eyes here is all grown up...ok, maybe not ALL, but he is quite a little ball of fun.

More baby on the way!

2010-05-29T15:18:00.003-06:00

I love maternity sessions. It is just beautiful to see a woman anticipating the birth of her newborn child. I live vicariously through them.

This first picture is one of my favorite poses and composition...and the mommies just make the pictures gorgeous.

...So what is the baby going to be, you ask? A girl...

...or a boy!

siblings...the best

2010-05-27T08:33:00.004-06:00

Remember this little princess, look how gorgeous she is now. It is so fun to watching children grow, but don't we all wish we could keep them little tiny things.

I know I am ready for another little tiny thing...no, not an announcement...but I would love to hold another tiny baby again. Just to sit and hold all day long, but until then, I will enjoy my mommy moments with my "todds" and capture these precious "real life" moments.

Welcome Baby Boy

2010-05-17T09:07:00.003-06:00

I love adoption and I especially love the relationships that are developed from adoption. Naturally, this is a subject near and dear to my heart, so when asked to capture an adoption and all the love that one baby brings to so many people, I jumped at the opportunity.

I hope you can feel the love and emotion that we all felt during the session.

"Adoption, Its about LOVE"

Okelberry Family...so cute!

2010-05-12T17:08:00.006-06:00

I grew up travelling the world...army brat (now just a brat)...and making friends along the way. It is always fun for me to see old friends again, and especially see the families that they have raised.

This mommy of three beautiful chillin's is a friend from college (at leasts 10 years ago). Crazy how the time flies.

Spring is here...Family pic time.

2010-05-01T12:35:00.003-06:00

Baby Girl M

2010-04-29T15:12:00.003-06:00

Check out this little beauty...it always amazes me when I see pictures of babies that are asleep and all cuddled up. Rarely do I get that from my little ones in sessions, they usually want to see what is going on and are so fascinated by the lights.

This little angel actually fell asleep and we had fun molding her, what a doll.

Baby Boy L

2010-04-14T07:15:00.003-06:00

What an alert and beautiful baby boy. He did not want to go to sleep, but we caught him trying. L was too interested in the camera and the crazy lady behind it...that would be me, hahaha! Pay attention to the last picture...he had some great faces for me too.

Family Pictures...and baby makes 4

2010-04-05T09:34:00.003-06:00

Congratulations on the little addition to your family. I love a great brotherly bond.

Mommy-to-Be

2010-03-15T18:31:00.003-06:00

Sweet baby girl on the way, can't wait to meet her.

Heider Family

2010-03-07T22:47:00.003-07:00

Another great session+another fantastic family+and some really amazing kids. I'd say it makes for some fun pictures for the family wall.

First Baby of 2010

2010-02-21T18:10:00.002-07:00

It is always a joy to watch a mother with her new baby. One of the reasons newborn pictures are my favorite.

December Wedding

2010-01-23T21:00:00.003-07:00

It took me long enough to get these done...holidays and all...at least I hope it was worth the wait. Here's a sneak peak.

Waiting on a Miracle

2009-12-08T07:05:00.002-07:00

As most of you know...adoption is a big part of my life, well, let's face it...its all my life with my two amazing miracles. So naturally, I love to be around others who have experienced it and especially love to be around those who are "waiting for a miracle". This family wanted some pics for potential birthparents to see how great of a family they are.

Family of Four

2009-12-08T06:28:00.003-07:00

I have had the opportunity to capture this families memories for the past year...with little E turning 2 and little sis joining the family. Now its time to make some Christmas card memories. Thank you for letting me get to know your family. Sorry it took so long to post.

The Family Dog

2009-11-17T22:54:00.002-07:00

I have never done family pictures with the family dog, it was fun to include him. I love it when people who have pets consider them a member of the family. Thanks guys, easy to get great pictures with great subjects.

Gillett Family

2009-11-11T05:07:00.003-07:00

It is always fun for me to reconnect with old friends. This mommy of these four beautiful children played ball for CSI when I was their trainer.....way back then (ok, only like 12 years ago). But I love seeing where people are now and the beautiful families they've created. This is one great family.

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!

2009-11-11T05:03:00.001-07:00

New pictures coming soon for Gillett family, but before that....check this out!

I am so excited about this. Carl and I moved here to Twin Falls for a couple reasons. Family was a big draw here, but we also wanted...Ok really its me...I have always wanted to own a fitness center.

Great friends...great family

2009-11-05T19:37:00.003-07:00

This family was one of my first photo sessions, a year ago, when I first moved back to Twin Falls. I love them, and I loved taking their pictures again.

Thanks guys for letting me be creative and capturing your great family.

Duff Family

2009-11-03T07:03:00.002-07:00

I think the last of the fall leaves and gorgeous colors. We got a great spot right here on our college campus. What a fun and energetic family to be with. There was so much life in these kids, it was fun trying to capture them in picture. Thanks guys, for enduring the wind and cold weather.

Ferguson Family

2009-11-01T19:42:00.001-07:00

I just love this family. I have had the privilegde of working with all three of these girls in some capacity in church, and they truly are a family I look up to. Thank you for this opportunity to be in your presence.

Clark Family

2009-10-29T12:02:00.003-06:00

More fun families that I get to be around, for a short moment in my life. I have many more sessions to post and all the families are great. I am so blessed to be around these great people. Plus, who can resist the cutie patootie kids.

Baby Boy Blue Eyes

2009-10-27T05:56:00.002-06:00

I love this little guy's cheeks....so cute, you just want to kiss 'em. Baby H is three months old and he was a treat to work with.

I never had a thumb sucker...so I really didn't know how cute it can be.

Bridal Bliss

2009-10-25T16:48:00.002-06:00

I absolutely love bridal session. Its a given that your subjects will be smiling and perform like the beauties they are. Plus you can really have fun with some "artsy fartsy" stuff. I am just lucky enough to be this new brides new sister-in-law. So happy for you sis....and bro of course! You caught this sweetie.

My assistant stealing a few kisses during the session!

J Family with some personality

2009-10-23T12:58:00.002-06:00

I know I've said it before, but I love personality. One of my favorite aspects in photography is seeing so many different types of personality, and with some....when the camera comes out, personality is spraying everywhere. Others take a little coaxing, but everybody has got some in some form.

This family is not short on great personality.

This little personality is the shy one.

Big sis had some great faces for me.

Charm too!

I love this picture: Family is when everyone pulls together to find the little ones star personality.

And there it is....

Seniors Galore....some foreign too!

2009-10-19T08:47:00.003-06:00

Three seniors, two foreigners, lots of pictures, tons of energy and too much fun. How can a photo session go wrong? And nobody was hurt....check out the train shot.

Love the Fall and Family pics too.

2009-10-15T07:06:00.002-06:00

Is it possible to have too much fun on a photo session? I had a blast with this little dear. She has a great photo face, and I got to capture it. I love the fall colors, sweaters, family moments and all that jazz.

Check out this sweetheart and her family.

New Home

2009-10-10T08:00:00.003-06:00

My sister-in-law and her family just bought their first home and wanted to celebrate with family pics. So I got to take a trip to Boise and catch a few pics for them.

HD & Eman

2009-09-20T20:09:00.002-06:00

Finally got to take pics of my little niece and nephew while they were here in Twin for the last month....before they moved to Boston. (sniff, sniff) So cute, I know!

6 days old!

2009-09-17T08:39:00.002-06:00

What a beauty. Little Katie is just 6 days old in these pictures, my youngest session yet. I love her beautiful olive skin and all that dark hair.

Welcome Home Sweet Girl!

Another Mama-to-be....for the second time.

2009-09-11T08:14:00.003-06:00

What a fun and creative couple. This mama-to-be was willing to get daring to get the shot....as you will see in the last two pics. Plus, this little baby boy is definitely going to be a future dirt biker....check out the pics with daddy and his hands.

Thanks guys, I had a blast meeting you and capture your pregnancy.

More Baby Ashtyn

2009-08-28T18:39:00.002-06:00

Baby Girl Ashtyn

2009-08-28T17:23:00.005-06:00

My new little niece, Ashtyn Scarlett...how cute is that name. Here's a sneak peak. More pics to come...very soon.

Wedding Bells...K and A.

2009-08-25T17:32:00.003-06:00

My first wedding pics (outside of family). I teamed up with a local photographer and friend of mine...Clark Draney Photography. I might just start doing weddings now, it was really fun.

I love feet pics...call me crazy!

It's a boy!

2009-08-16T21:44:00.002-06:00

My first maternity. Not ever having been pregnant myself, I love capturing moments like these. Thanks M for letting me be a small part of your new bundle of joy on the way....

Baby Boy on Board.

Tuckers

2009-08-14T19:57:00.003-06:00

My sister-in-law, and her cute family of boys.

E to the J and his A

My first engagement pics...my handsome brother and his beautiful bride-to-be. They were so much fun to capture...true love for sure.

On a side note, I have made changes to my blog...would love your opinions.

My little Zander turned 6 months old on the 28th and my growing little Kya is 3 on the 2nd of August. They are growing so fast, and here they are. Of course as their mother, I think they are the cutest models I have.

This is my third nephew this year. One in Michigan, one in Provo (born on the 4th of July) and this little guy from Boise. Lots of boys...bring on the toads, wrestling matches, and pulling pigtails, I love have cousins close by. What a sweetie this little guy is.
