Meridian/Family Photographer

I don't know that I can find the words to describe my time with the Lange family. Stephanie is a dear friend of mine and I have known her since she was much younger! Age usually matures people, but it is good to know that no matter how old you get on the outside you can still be young on the inside. For her family photos this year she wanted to show a refined, sophisticated, formal side of her family. These first photos reflect her vision nicely.

I really have not seen two people more in love than these two. They could not keep their hands off each other! I love to see it though!






Lets get real though just how long do you think a family full of personality, humor, and pure spunk can hold out? Not that long really. Every family shot has something silly happening in between snaps of the camera. Usually it is the kids who cause the most trouble, but Steph was the worst! I caught so much of it I found myself cracking up when I was editing their pictures, over and over again! Here are some of my favorites. Totally love the kung-fu moment!

Ludwig family was way over due for a family picture. Seven years since their last one. Really I do get it though, it's not like a family photo session is the thing families look forward to the most. Their kids are mostly grown up now and I did not even have to break out my puppets. Wonderful kids, wonderful parents. Almost did not get this session at all on Saturday with the crazy weather, but the sun came out and stayed out for their session, glad it did the colors are amazing! Dad Ludwid is Dr. Ludwig at Pioneer Family Medicine and I just love that place!

Addies 1 year pictures! We added some of the family as well. It was not long ago that I was doing Ivy's 1 year pictures. Oh my how time flies. Addie was a trooper, how much can you really expect from a 13 month old? She did hang in there through three outfit changes. I had to include the one of the meltdown in her darling skirt, I still think it is cute! Enjoy your pictures, and yeah this is super fast but got to keep up on the editing. I will be in Taiwan in 10 days, no working from there! BTW I love you guys!

Does not get better than being able to photograph your best friend and her whole crew! I walked away from this evening wondering how can her six....yes six kids be so much easier to handle than my own five? Really they were so good for me. We got shot after shot of the whole family. Way too many put put them all on here. I guess it makes up for the last two years when Hailey just cried the whole time! Donna you did an amazing job putting together all the outfits! Check out how good you look, must be the 1/2 marathon you just finished last weekend!! Love you my friend!

Pugmire family pictures 2010. Never fun to do your own family pictures. Pictures for other families seem to go so smooth, but my own are always a nightmare! Maybe it's because my own kids are used to my threats and it does not snap them into action. A big shout out to my baby sister who patiently endured the whole evening putting all her energy into getting all our attention. By the end of the night she was wiped out and for good reason. Thanks sis you did great!

Paige- Rocky Mountain H.S Senior-
Love this girl! Beautiful, Kind, Wonderful big sister, amazing in so many ways! I am a bit biased because she is my niece. I am so lucky to have been able to photograph two of my all grown up nieces this year. I can't believe they are seniors and getting ready to graduate. Love you Paige! Their are way too many amazing pictures to post them all. Go check out the rest on the website. Your password is "Paige". www.taralynnphotography.com

Caldwell High Senior- Had so much fun with Junior driving all over town! He has a great family, very awesome sisters! We could have gone on all night, but eventually the sun always goes down. Enjoy your peek. These are the promo cards you will be getting!

Yup 6 boys! They were a blast and tons easier than my 4 girls! No drama this day, just straight up get my picture taken so I can go home! Really fun family, really fun day! Enjoy your peek!

Ava's one year old pictures in her traditional dress, a family tradition that has lasted through four children! This was a quick session because 1 year olds don't love to stand still, or strangers. We got some great ones in the time she was still happy. I just love the colors!
