Last summer I attended a photography workshop and met a wonderful lady and fantastic photographer, Tara Winsor. Tara is so sweet, and her photographic work is stunning. A couple of months ago she posted a contest on her blog for a free family session or mentoring session. I made a comment to wish her luck and a tweet to spread the word. As much as I love her work and would have loved to have had a couple of hours to learn from her I really had no notion of winning, I truly just wanted to help her spread the word so she could find new clients in her area. I never win anything, so I wasn't too concerned. I mean really who wins those blog contests anyways? Then I won an e-book from the MCP blog on SEO for Photographers(exciting for me, probably a snore for anybody else). I figured I had now won my lifetime share of blog contests. Shock of my life when Tara messaged me and said I had won one of her slots!! Which one did I want?, my choice. UHHHHHH.......?!?!?!? I really wanted a chance to mentor with her, but Kevin has been after me to set up some family pictures for us. Well I shouldn't say set up, because that is what we have, me setting up the tripod and either setting the timmer of having someone click the shutter for us. He had been after me to hire a photographer to take our pictures, just like I do for others. So, I told Tara we would love to have a family session with her. We of course would meet her somewhere in the SL area.
When we headed to Amanda's graduation in April I knew it would be a perfect opportunity to try to meet up with Tara as well.
Tara sent me a link to our pictures this morning.
They are AMAZING. Lots of pictures.
Thank you Tara. I cannot say enough how wonderful you are.
How handsome is this guy?!


It cracks me up that you can see a bride and groom on the temple steps behind us. :)
Tara is based in Layton(I'm pretty sure) but travels all over, I would highly recomend her for your own family portrats, kid portraits, newborns, seniors, weddings etc.
She is also traveling to Oregon this summer and will be offering mini sessions while there.
