Why do I make my life so difficult!






I always get ideas in my head, this year for family pictures, it was no different. I had this vision and it's always the more difficult route to bring my vision into reality! For example(there is even a picture of my couches to show you!) I had an idea to get "mocha" colored couches with black cording. I searched all over the world for these couches, finally I had to order them and wait 8 weeks for them to be made. Jayson thought I was crazy, but I knew what I wanted and I'm gonna make sure I get it! Anyway for our family pictures I had all the details in my mind, the color scheme, locations, everything! I wanted this certain color of "aqua" that we searched all over the internet and all over town for. Then, Jayson was thrilled to haul a couch all over the mountains for my vision! Finally it all came together and this is the very satisfied result! P.S. I loved our photographer, she was sooo good! Her link is on my blog list!

Amanda said...

Difficult or not they turned out terrific. I love them!

I love them! Pictures stress me out so much. BUt yours turned out great. The couch, the colors- perfect! But you know what? You're lucky. Brian would NEVER carry around a couch for our family pictures. He would have talked me out of that as fast as I said it. Jayson gets points.

Amanda! Thanks for the compliment. I am glad you like them. It always makes a photographer look better when she has gorgeous subjects! I had so much fun shooting you guys. i would love to do it again sometime. Tell Jayson he might have to bring the couch again. We can do it in the spring with all the green and flowers!!
