New Year Contest is finally here {free photoshoot utah}

O.k here it is the new contest! I rarely give out photoshoots anymore because there is so much work involved for me, not just the shooting time but the extra time and effort I put into editing each and every picture taken. But the new year needed something big!!!! I am offering a free sitting fee for a Family photo shoot plus one free 8x10 print. If you would like a copyright printing release disk they are normally $65 But you will recieve this for only $50 PLUS you will get the extra editing option (Which everyone orders by the way, because it is what I am known for) for free instead of paying $20 extra, on top of that. this package if you were to just come in and have this shoot is worth  $165. you will get the entire thing for $50 or for free if you do not get all your pictures and just the 8X10. I am warning you though choosing just one would be next to impossible.Indoors or outdoors.

Barbe Family { Utah family photography } { minnesota}

My dear friend Cathi was in town from Minnesota for the Holidays, I had the pleasure of taking her families pictures...and had a blast I might add. I really wanted something bright and colorful for them so we ventured out and about. Our first stop was not bright but Cathi loves texture so we started at the barn and worked our way to our red brickness. Gotta say Love it!!!!
The kids were awesome I would be lying if I said it was comfortable out there. It was freezing outside!! But it was not snowing so we were very grateful.
It was so good to see them again and even if it was only for a couple hours. Here are some of my favorites. I had way too many.

Christie Marini dance photography

I love Christie and she is so fun to shoot. Christie is a Utah Flash dancer and is truly amazing. She also happens to be my girls dance teacher. I love photographing a dancer who has the flexibility to do action shots. This girl was so brave it was freezing outside and she went outside and rocked it! Thanks Christie for allowing me to take your pictures.

Grossman girls {Utah family photography}

I always love when the grossman family comes to visit me. They are always so fun and full of life. We took some Birthday Pictures for Tassja and Charley. They also are a dancing family and wanted some in their dance outfits too. Charley loves spongebob so i through one of them together in there photo session. Here are a few of my favorites from that session.

Merry Christmas to you all!

I just wanted to say how blessed I feel to have such wonderful clients and friends that allow me to be a part of their lives and take their photographs. I hope by now you have all recieved your Christmas gifts from Dani C Photography and know how much I love and appreciate you all. If you did not got punch the mailman. Only teasing. Dont do that I love the mailman.
I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New year, though most of you do not read blogs lol. I hope to see you all in 2011!!

Behind on Blogging...

I have ran so behind on my blogging. I am going to post a few of some recent shoots.
Mikala is from Minnesota and she is darling. her mom & I grew up together in Colorado. I use to babysitt this girl when she was 5 and 6 years old and her mom would watch my twins who at the time were like 1 years old. We got them all back together and took a picture. You will see that later in this post.
Mikala is gorggeous! This girl should be a model. She really knew how to work it when I told her what I was going for. here are a few of my favorites from the day. Even though I had a hard time choosing.
We had so much fun! Even though the snow was gone which was so sad, we got fantastic shots. The last shot is the three girls reunited after all these years.

next we have the Smith Family, They were visiting from Idaho for Thanksgiving. The weather was too cold for an outdoor shoot with all the little ones they have so we took it indoors. Again we have another photogenic family. These girls were very special friends to my girls when they lived here. We miss them dearly. Here are a few of my favorites from their photo session.

Then we have the Scarbrough Family, another family that traveled a ways from Eagle Mountain to have their family pictures done. What a cute family. they showed up in there Purple and I Loved it!! We did a barn shoot with them. They all cooperated great even with the weather being freezing outside. We got some great shots for them to use in their Holiday cards. Here are a few from that shoot.
