oh hey guys!
look who we've got here today, the furness family!
there's mommy furness {ahem, my big sista ashley}, daddy furness {mr jordan, my bro in law...obviously}, the star of the show {my darling niece, baby lyla}, oh and sophie {lyla's most favorite giraffe}. what would lyla have done without sophie? that's how we got all of the big smiles from baby lyla. there's something about that girl and her giraffe. i'm telling you, this is my kinda girl. animal print. cute things. you know, i think we have a lot in common, me and lyla.
anyways, we had such a fun shoot! i was so happy that these guys made the trek from utah and stopped by for their family shoot before heading to a family reunion! always wonderful to see these guys! even if it started raining mid-shoot. there's nothing that brings out more squinty eyes than a bunch of rain drops hitting them, i tell you. but that didn't last too long, and these guys were troopers! and we sure had fun!
hope you guys enjoy these photos as much as i do.
guys.... let's be real. they are totes adorbs.
{that was for you, jordan! ha!}

ashley's baby shower in slc was fantastic! andrae was a wonderful host and planned everything down to the very last detail! it was held at jordan's aunt's home and it turned out so lovely! so many friends and family came and it was so wonderful to see them all! and like i said before, the details were what made this shower so amazing! i kind of got distracted by all the beautiful goodness and wonderful company, that i put my camera down and just enjoyed being there. so, please excuse me for not taking a photo of you two, ash and andrae, together. that was my bad... but good job andrae! it was a perfect afternoon! and happy shower, ash!

we took ashley's maternity photos on march 17th in salt lake city.
