{Corbyn} Children Portraits Las Vegas, NV
I met Corbyn’s parents Chris and Kaley last year when I took some maternity photos for them out at Spring Mountain Ranch State Park.
You can see the images from their session HERE . I was so excited to finally meet little Corbyn, I had seen her photos nearly everyday
on facebook and new she would be a bundle of joy to photograph. We headed out to a park nearby at sunset and got these magical shots.
I’m pretty sure everyone at the park and driving by thought we were all complete weirdos due to the random noises we were all making,
but hey, whatever makes them smile. Here are a few of my favorites photos from her session! Enjoy!!!
Corbyn and her daddy dancing at the park, so sweet. I could not help but think that one day he would be dancing with her on her wedding day. Corbyn with her mommy in a sweet moment.
My Birthday Celebration in Southern Utah
This year was a big birthday for me. The BIG 30, which I thought, I was ready for until my last day being in my twenties hit me, lol. I know it is silly but at first glance my turning 30 was devastating, why who knows…Then I started to really think about how much I have accomplished in my 30 years, where I am in my life and realized how lucky I am. So I thought this blog post instead of being all about the photographs I take, I would share a little about myself, with a side of photos.
I would never had imagined how my life would be at this age, I’m not sure I ever really thought too much about it to be honest. I just lived day to day, went to work, paid the bills, and ignored my dreams until finally the opportunity came for me to pursue my dreams. For my husband and I to join creative forces and do what we love and do best and make a living at it, this is when Moxie Studio came to. This past year growing our business has been a constant effort and I am so thankful for all of you that have spread the word about Moxie Studio. You all are making my dreams come true each and every day and every time you recommend us to your family and friends for their photography and video needs. Together with all of my clients we have created some awesome memories being part of your weddings, family portraits, headshots and commercials. It is so rewarding being able to see how all of your lives have blossomed and businesses have grown.
I am so thankful that at this age I can truly say that I do what I love for a living. I have a wonderful husband of nearly 11 years, 3 amazing Alaskan Malamutes, Zoe, Sundance and Koda, and two crazy cats, Morticia and Orion 
To celebrate the big birthday we headed up to Duck Creek for a cabin retreat for the weekend. We always try to take the dogs up to the snow at least once a year to play and so we can have a little downtime. We both love the outdoors and anytime we can get away we take the opportunity. It was a perfect getaway, cozy cabin, my hubby, dogs and lots of fun in the snow.

Las Vegas NV Children Photographer // Emma’s Portraits
I had the pleasure of photographing Emma again as she is getting ready to celebrate her 7th birthday! I shot her family photos last fall and it was awesome to be able to meet up with this fantastic family again! We headed out to Lake Las Vegas with balloons in hand.
Emma was so excited for her photo session, she knew this time it was all about her! It always amazes me how much the kids can change in such a short time. The last time I had seen her she was very mellow and now she was a little spitfire. Full of energy and ready to strike any pose you could think of! She even sang me a few songs, lol. She brought along her adorable little sister Lily who I could not resist with her oh so cute hat! I am a sucker for kids in hats, I don’t know what it is but they get me every time, lol. We were also lucky enough to get a great sunset, those seem pretty rare in Las Vegas.
I love to photograph kids and families. I am pretty laid back and I will do anything to make your kids smile and laugh. When you are looking for someone to photograph your family be sure to ask a few things.
First is the photographer good with children? I am someone with tons of experience photographing little ones. I truly enjoy creating a great experience for your family and capturing your child doing what they do best, being a child! Sure I love to get the posed shot too but it is always great to capture the real smile and laughter and kids at play.
Do you have a location choice? For sure! No two sessions are ever the same I work with your family to find the location and poses that works best for you. I always suggest doing portraits someplace where your family will be relaxed and comfortable. While studios can be nice I find that kids are themselves outdoors whether it be a park, playground, lake, exploring a ghost town or anything else your family enjoys doing together.
Referrals are also a great way to know if we are the right fit for your family. Check out our testimonials to see what other families enjoyed about working with us!
Do they offer the Photo CD with print release? We absolutely do! We know moms love to share their families portraits with well, pretty much everyone they know! We offer the CD for an additional fee so that you may print anything you like, post images to facebook and archive the images for years to come.
I also bring an assistant with me to help with getting the kids to smile, make sure your hair looks good and all the little details so we don’t miss anything. It is also a huge help to me so I can focus on your family unit and what makes you, you.
We would love to chat with you and capture your family portraits, feel free to give us a call at 702.527.0258

Las Vegas Trash The Dress Session Film ~ Michael and Carina ~ Spring Mountain Ranch
We had the pleasure of capturing Michael and Carina’s wedding day at Angel Park Golf Club.
They also decided to do a Trash the Dress Session up at Spring Mountain Ranch State Park
the day after their wedding. Michael and Carina are so awesome and great sports.
Originally Carina did not want to get her dress dirty but she decided why not?
So we made the most of a gorgeous stormy day in Vegas and managed only to get her dress
slightly dirty. I know many people think Trash the Dress means we are literally going to trash the dress
but that’s not how we do it. Its a session where you can get some truly artistic shots in an
unusual location that you would not normally see a bride and groom in.
They really are some of my favorite sessions! This is the film we put together for them.
We would love to hear what you guys think!
Some things we think you should consider when you are booking your wedding cinematographer or videographer. Make sure you have an opportunity to speak with the cinematographer that will be filming your wedding day, it is important that you get along and have a clear understanding of everything you can expect.
Ask to see examples of his or her work and make sure you love what they do! When visiting different companies be sure to ask specifically who shot the video and who edited it. Sometime’s companies show work from a prior employee who no longer works for them and don’t have the means to create the same caliber of work, be sure the work you see and who did the work is who you are going to get!
Find out the style of wedding videos that you like, do you like something very traditional, do you like documentary style with interviews and voice overs? How about the artsy cinematic style? We are a combination of documentary meets artsy cinematic.
You also want to find out if the studio you are using edits their own work, this is very important as they will have insight to your personalities and all the details of your day that made it so special. When it comes to editing you also want to find out approximately how long the finished video will be. Some people think that if you have your cinematographer there for 7 hours you will have 7 hours of video, that is not the case. In fact the finished video depends on the activities of your day and how long your ceremony is.
Do they offer a highlight video? Is that all you receive or do you receive a completely edited DVD as well? We create a highlight video that will be posted online for you to share with your family and friends as well as a completely edited DVD of all the events of your day. The DVD will have a menu with chapters so you can easily skip to different events that happened throughout your wedding day. The ceremony will be in it’s full not just bits and pieces. Will you be able to select the songs that are used for your wedding video? You bet! We always ask that you choose 5 or 6 songs that we will then edit different sections of your wedding day to.

James and Lacey pre wed shoot
We headed up to Southern Utah this past weekend for a shoot with James and Lacey. The weather man was a little off and the 20% chance of showers turned into a down pour all day and later into snow! James and Lacey were true troopers though and stuck it out and we all made the best of our new snow covered scenery. We started out in Zion National Park and finished off our day at the snow covered Coral pink Sand Dunes. Here are a few photos from the shoot. Jamison was shooting video and I was shooting photo. Take advantage of our combo packages to get the best of both our photography and cinema! You can see our packages here.
