My recent session with the Hardy family was an absolute blast! They visited their daughter, who lives nearby and thought it would be the perfect time to get family photos. They are from Utah and the Hardys shared their favorite spots and activities in Bear Lake, where I happened to be planning a trip the following week. Their enthusiasm was infectious, and they offered fantastic suggestions on must-see places and hidden gems. From scenic hiking trails to delicious local eateries, their tips have me even more excited for my upcoming adventure! ( I actually did a lot of their suggestions and they were fantastic!!)

Seeing the Hardy family’s bond through my lens was a reminder of why I love this work—it’s not just about photos; it’s about stories, laughter, and lasting memories.
