The Whitaker Family | Summer Wildflower Session

about the session

Say hello to the sweetest family I had the privilege of photographing, the Whitakers. Logan and Ellie are the kinds of people whose eyes sparkle when you talk to them and they bring so much light and joy into life, that you can’t help but smile when you talk to them. They are also the kind of people who will drop anything and everything to help anyone. They are just good people through and through.

We had this photoshoot scheduled for MONTHS before we were finally able to make it happen. Originally it was booked for winter of 2018, but due to harsh temps, we had to reschedule for spring of 2019. Then can you guess what happened? Another photoshoot rescheduled due to COVID. But Logan and Ellie stayed positive and were super flexible and understanding, not letting the rescheduled sessions dampen their excitement for family photos.

The session finally took place, yet again, at Lambart Park in Alpine, Utah near Provo. I just LOVE this location. It has such expansive grounds to photograph on and the flowers are jaw-dropping! I can’t recommend it enough for a photoshoot location in the Utah County area because it is beautiful year-round, it photographs pretty any time of day, it offers tons of variety and is really easy to get to. There is no need to hike with small kiddos because it’s literally a few steps out of the parking lot and you are in the perfect spot for a photo session.

I am obsessed with how dreamy this session turned out. This family did such an incredible job of having neutral colors and with that fresh pop of blue, their outfits were perfection! The Whitaker’s were the ideal family because they had so much fun playing with their kids, which always makes for the most authentic family photos. I love to capture those natural moments as a family.

It was truly so great getting to meet and spend time with this family. I enjoyed my time with them immensely! So much, in fact, that we are getting together for a virtual game night next week. I can’t wait!
