Baby Aryelle | Utah Natural Birth Story Video

Started out this new year and I am back with a bang!  I love filming births.  They are beautiful and touching and powerful.  Each birth leaves me in awe of women and their strength and men in their support.  No matter the birth – natural in a birthing center, tucked away in a hospital, c-sections, or at home – each of them shows the beauty of birth and the power of mothers. Birth videos aren’t for everyone, but I think they should be – sweet little baby Aryelle is proof of that! Congrats to her sweet parents on their new sweet girl and on making it through 26 hours of natural labor and birth!

Whitney & David | Salt Lake Temple Wedding Video

This is my dear friend Whitney. I love her – she is part of a sisterhood of friends of mine that are so near and dear to my heart and I think the world of her.  She is such a good supportive listener with the happiest and kindest heart and a laughable nature of brightness that makes anyone laugh with her. I was friends with Whitney for a little while before I met David and the first time I did, it was so plain to see that they were a perfect match. They are the greatest, most supportive, and kindest couple. Friends weddings are just the best – don’t you think??

October has arrived and that means two things – 1. Fall family pictures and 2. November is just one month away! And with November being the season of giving and fall being the perfect time for family pictures, I’m going to take both of those and put them together for one big FALL FAMILY GIVEAWAY!

There’s nothing more important than family and now is the best time to document memories of yours AND spread the love to others by giving a deserving family a free family photoshoot! Here’s how it works –

1). Submit the name of a family you think deserves a completely FREE family photoshoot to be picked from a raffle, then,

2). Get $50 off of your own family photo shoot for the fall season! [Details posted below].

Let’s remember what’s important and help out someone else and spread that love along the way – so send me an email with your submission today!

*Giveaway details – To submit a family and earn the discount, send a direct message to elsajcreates@gmail.com with the name and a picture of the family you think deserves a free photo shoot along with a background on why they deserve a free family photo shoot.  It could be for a myriad of reasons – they continually give back, family photos aren’t in the budget this year, they’ve just moved to a new home, a family member has passed away, they always make time for others, etc. – you decide and let me know why! After submitting, you’ll receive a response back with a coupon to be used towards your family photo shoot, and the family you submitted will be added to the pool of other families to be chosen on November 1st.  Submissions will last through the October 31st. Multiple submissions are welcomed and appreciated, but discount coupons remain limit to one per family. Discount coupons must be redeemed by December 31st, 2017.  Discounts can be applied to mini sessions, but at a reduced discount of $30 off. Now let’s get to giving!

The Griffiths | A Family

I love this family! I realize I have probably said that about every family I’ve shared, but its part of the job! Every time I get to spend an hour with a family, it gives such an insight into them, their relationships, and their love as a family.  It’s the best! And this family is no exception! I may be a bit partial because of our friendship with them, but I had so much fun with them. I laughed the entire time and left wishing I was a part of the Griffiths clan.  Lucky for me, I get to keep them around and still see them every now and then :)

Bayli & Cole | Engaged

I could not be more excited to share this video.

This is my best friend. Her name is Bayli.  She is quite possibly one of the best humans I have ever met.  She is kind, giving, always excited and passionate about something, and just so fun to be around. So it only makes sense that she now has been given the happiest and most exciting thing life has to offer in return – a really awesome stellar guy that wants to marry her!  Cole came to me when he wanted to propose to Bayli and said ‘I need to make sure its filmed’ – so we got to work with his idea and I planned out how I would be there to film it.  And it was. so. stinking. awesome.

To save you from the longest story ever full of too many details (because this is my favorite human, and I could spend all day telling it), Cole made a scavenger hunt for Bayli, taking her to all of the spots in their relationship where they had significant moments (i.e., first time holding hands, first kiss, I love you, etc.) and at each spot, there was waiting a clue for the next spot from a family member or friend, leading her to where he knew he loved her, at the top of Guardsman’s Pass in Park City, Utah.  It was happy, full of love and excitement, and so fun to be a part of. So,  without any further ado, here is Bayli & Cole’s engagement!
