I feel completely overwhelmed with craziness in my life!! The clothing line (AVEN) has been a lot of work lately, but I am still working hard in the photography world as well! Which, by the way, we are trying to get the word out with Aven as much as possible and we need your help! When we reach 2,000 fans on FACEBOOK we will have a huge 20% off sale!! And just FYI, Aven does ship to Europe, Austrailia & Canada! Travel sessions have already started and can I just say how much I love it! So fun, might be a lot more of this next year. Would love to hear which cities you think I should visit! By the way, there might be a 3-4 week visit to Sydney, Austrailia this Jan, but I will keep you posted!! Kids are almost out of school! Lots of plans this summer with them, so I am looking forward to that…

Just a reminder that I am only booking 2-3 sessions per week this fall so please email Whitney to book asap!!! whitney@simplicityphotography.com

Here is what I have been working on lately…

Love this girl to pieces…

A few from a family session last week:)

And a couple from my mentoring session with 3 amazing photographers last Monday:)

And to top it all off I haven’t even taken Milo’s one year pictures yet! Soon my dear Milo, soon.

Hope you all are enjoying this amazing weather. I need to get me a new book and get out there on my hammock.

peace,
Angie

This year I decided I wanted to do a lot of traveling sessions so that I could mix my two favorite things, travel & photography! So… this means I have to cut back on
my local sessions here in Utah:( What I have decided to do is not take any local Utah sessions this summer so that I can spend a lot of time with my kids during the summer & on top of that I have travel sessions scheduled all summer long.

So, those of you who live in Utah that are looking to book a family or children’s session please do so now for Sept, Oct, & November. I will be shooting the month of May here in Utah and the first week of June and have a few spots open, so if you want something soon please email my assistant Whitney at whitney@simplicityphotography.com

Also, for fall sessions I will only be taking 2-3 sessions a week and this year I am sticking to it. Every fall I about lose my mind and I have no one to blame but myself so I have to cut back this year in order to keep my sanity & to be more available for my family. This means I will be taking almost half the sessions I usually do in the fall, so please plan ahead! If I am booked I am happy to refer to another photographer that I can highly recommend to you.

Thanks so much for understanding!!
Hope you all are enjoying this amazing weather in Utah, now let’s all go outside and live a little.

After some setbacks, adding new items to the line, traveling & many learning experiences we are finally launching AVEN!

Aven has been in the making for over a year now I am so excited to announce that it is ready to purchase! I teamed up with an amazing clothing designer, Mitch Harris, to launch a boys clothing line with a city/urban appeal. It really has been one of my secret dreams to start a kids clothing line for a while now, so here we are taking a risk and offering something different and unique for boys. I hear mothers complaining about the choices they have for boys clothing so here you go ladies! I hope you all love it & spread the word!

This line is just the beginning of something really amazing, but we had to start out small like most businesses so it will sell out quickly.
All of the clothing is meant to be slim fit & tailored so order up a size if you are worried that your child doesn’t fit well in slim fit clothing.

This is a big day and I am just so thankful for all of you that continue to read my blog and follow my work:)

You ready to shop??

It was such a great day. I got to photograph these wonderful families that have been through hard times recently & they were so happy to be a part of Nettie’s idea.

The plan is simple… we offered these families that have suffered financial despair & were at a time homeless, free photographs. I got to go and tour Family Promise who connects us with these families in need. It’s amazing how this program helps families who need it most get back on their feet. A lot of them have small children & need quite a bit of assistance trying to just survive. Family Promise helps provide services that they would maybe never have access to without them. What an amazing program.

Thanks Nettie for thinking of others, especially at age 9 when so many of our youth wouldn’t even bat an eye at something like this. I am amazed by this young child & her heart of gold.

Here are some of the wonderful families we photographed:) Nettie was my assistant for the day!

If you would like to donate to this program (Family Promise) PLEASE VISIT THIS SITE TO DO SO.

We hope to photograph families through Family promise again very soon & if you are a photographer that is willing to donate your services please email me.

She came up with an amazing non-profit organization to hold a shoot for homeless families in which each family will receive a wallet-size family portrait of their family to keep with them, given many lose pricelss photos after being evicted from their homes. We start this week & I am so proud of this young girl with a heart of gold:)

This is the cutie herself…
