Where We Call Home

Brenda Bird is just about my most favorite designer, crafter, blogger, and friend to follow on Instgram. I'll shamelessly admit it. Her posts are so genuine and you can just tell from the vibe of her writing that she has a great love for her family. Over time, she has become a dear friend to me (yes, we have met in person more than once so I'm not just a creepy stalker of Brenda's blog). So when she asked me to make this video following her family through the journey of their Provo residences, I jumped at the opportunity! It was such an unforgettable experience to see where her and her husband first stared out, to see the homes they later built their family in, and to say goodbye with them to their last house in P-town before they headed off to Seattle. Thank you, Bird family, for being so fun to work with! Love you all  - enjoy this new adventure making an exciting city your new home!

Hotslings - 'Be With Me' Featuring Robyn from Cleverlyours.com

Robyn and her darling baby girl Liv stole my heart from the first moment we stepped into their home.  Not only does Robyn have impeccable taste and an eye for beauty when it comes to design, but she also manages to live a life of beauty. Aside from her busy schedule as a blogger and active member in her community, she makes sure to take sweet baby Liv out on a daily basis to appreciate the world around them. From walks with their little Yorky to running errands around town, this woman knows how to get it all done. The key to doing it all while keeping baby close? She'd say it proud - her sling from Hotslings.com. They're fashionable, they're affordable, and it doesn't take a year to learn how to wrap them around your body and securely fasten them. Gotta admit - this brand made a fan out of me. 

Baby Leggings - Easter Bliss

It's baskets, babies, and leggings on parade! Yes, I secretly wish that every single one of these prints was made in adult size; oh, and that adult leggings could somehow make their way into being on trend. However, until that day comes I will continue to gawk after these adorable little leg warmers that cover from the knee to the ankle on kids. Better yet, they work for infants all the way up to 35 lb. children! Amazed? Don't deny it. Head on over to Babyleggings.com to check out their unique patterns. There's bound to be a pair one for every kid's personality, as you can see in this fun Easter piece. Enjoy!

Belly Button Band - Launch & Instruction Video

Bellybuttonband.com has maternity bands for all stages of your pregnancy (pre, during, and post)! Besides the fact the maternity and body bands make for the perfect layering accessories, they will actually hold up your pants as opposed to simply covering the uncomfortable and unattractive look of the unbuttoned jeans during that stage in a mother's life. Yes - it's inescapable. :) I'm a big advocate of these bands, but so are the ladies who got to try them out before showing up for their BBB photo shoot. See why.

Carseat Canopy - Valentine Tribute #1 & #2

When it comes to beautiful people with beautiful babies - I just can't help myself! I love days where my time is spent capturing the love of two wonderful parents for their littles. On these two separate occasions, I had the opportunity to spotlight these young families for a Valentines series Carseatcanopy.com offered to their canopy fans. Sharing in their family time was a special opportunity I don't get to partake in often. All that romance, blossoming love, sweet smooches - almost too many 'aw' moments caught on cam for me to handle. Swoon party begins now!
