Easter!

It was a beautiful Spring day in Utah and the Thomas family had me shoot photos at their home in their Easter outfits. The newest addition to their family arrived just 4 weeks earlier! Everyone was coordinated in fun colors and we shot indoors. Mom and baby were about the only two who fully cooperated, but we managed to get some cute pics! ; ) Enjoy your updated family photos!!!

Moving to Houston!!!

Apparently I have created much confusion concerning by current whereabouts. I like to stir the pot. . . At this very moment I am still in Utah. I found it easier with the launch of my new website www.daynaphotography.com and blog to list Houston and save time changing it all 3 weeks later. But we are down for the count with only 7 days to go until the Big Move to Houston April 18th. Crazy! I say 7 days since it will be in the wee hours of the morning. Anything before 8:00 is early. Am I excited, nervous, scared, sad, happy? Yes to all the above! This will be nothing short of one of the grandest adventures I have experienced thus far. Mostly I am thrilled to start life with my husband in Houston and be together every day!

I am more than willing to travel back to Utah, or any other worldwide location (I LOVE to travel!) to shoot a wedding or other planned event. I have family here and will be back to visit. Those dates will be posted on the blog in advance so those wishing to book a photography session may do so. Thank you to all those who have supported me and my photography business since 2000 in Utah. I am happy to announce the debut of Dayna Carroll Photography in Houston, Texas! For now I am keeping my UT cell, but I am getting a TX number soon.

Houston, Here We Come!!! : )

Oh Baby!

Yesterday the baby announcements for Mikell arrived from the printer. So excited! They look even better in person with the rich pearl paper. Very pleased with how they turned out and wanted to share with you! The rich chocolate sets off the pink, for a modern look. I added polka dots for the fun factor, just because I can! : )

Reeves' Girls

These three sisters have loads of personality, sass, and looks! Check them out! Lauryn and Ashlyn are twins and their younger sister is Alivia. It was a rather brisk, windy spring day, but the girls all braved the cold and we were able to take fantastic shots. We were on the south end of the Great Salt Lake. I love how their outfits contrasted the location--especially the graffiti!


Blowing a kiss for daddy--this has to be my favorite!























Alivia wasn't thrilled with the smiling idea . . .





I love this photo!

Baby Mikell

Look at how precious she is! Oh my goodness--such a beautiful baby and very cooperative for the photo shoot. I photographed her when she was just 12 days old--1 week ago. She is such a doll!


This is my favorite!



















I love her birthstone bracelet.

Mikell's mom wasn't planning on being in the photos, but I saw this shot and loved it!



Big sister, Brecklyn, was my reflector helper. She liked seeing her reflection in my lens.
