I can't even imagine!! *Please Read!!

You other photographers or friends of photog's may have already heard the tragic story of Heidi with Heidi J Photography. I have never met her personally but I my heart breaks for her!! She was targeted by thief's at the Salt Lake Temple and followed in her car. She left her camera equipment, lap top and external hard drive in her LOCKED car under her coat to go in a mail some clients there CD's. She was only gone for a mere 5 minutes and had everything stolen!! I can't even imagine what that must be like!! I have forgotten my bag once and luckily had some honest people turn it in for me at the location I was shooting at, but my heart was in my throat and I was literally having a panic attack the whole ride back there!! But to have it completely gone because of some scumbags is the worst thing imaginable!! This equipment is our livelihood! It is how we share our time and talents with others and make it possible for our clients to have these memories forever!! And the fact that we are being followed home is so scary! I have learned from her story and realize how important it is to be careful with the safety of my equipment and myself at these weddings. I am going to get my stuff insured ASAP! The photographer and friend she was second shooting for that day, Dustin Izatt has set up a fundraiser to help her and her family get back on their feet and get some of her equipment back! Times are tough right now, even for me, but every little bit helps!! So I want to do my part...

I would like to donate all the money made from next portrait session to book with me towards that fundraiser!! So please feel free to call me at (435)752-0652 or e-mail me at casciophoto@hotmail.com and title it "Help for Heidi" to be the wonderful client that really helps make a difference in this photographer's life!!

Chelsey & Josh- The Pre-shoot!

What a perfect world for me being a photographer with gorgeous sisters who love getting their pictures taken!! I am so lucky! :) My baby sis Chelsey got married this past July (can't believe its been 3 months already!) and I am so excited to post their formals! Chelsey just has this sassy & sultry look about her that the camera (a.k.a me) can't get enough of it! I love her style and elegance! And Josh doesn't look so bad either ;) I am so happy for the both of them!


Aren't they just the shoot-cutest couple you've ever seen?! I know, I know... I biased :)

Little Phoebe :)

This little sweetie was so easy to work with... she hardly complained until the very end when she pulled a double whammy on daddy's shirt (proof is in the picture at the end haha) ;) Her big brother was so gentle with her and you can tell she is well loved and fits right into this beautiful family!

And the winner is...

LEXI & TREVOR!!! okay okay... let me explain :) Lexi was the super duper lucky bride that won the Wedding Showcase FREE Wedding Giveaway this past March!!! It was an amazing experience to be the photographer that not only got to spend the day with this awesome couple and their families, but also be the one to see what Cache Valley's "A-List" vendors can really do!! It was seriously GORGEOUS!! All of their hard work and donations of time and talent completely payed off! And Lexi & Trevor totally deserved it :) They were so amazing to work! Not to mention that Lexi and her mom have the greatest taste ever! The colors were so fun and vibrant and the energy around them was so much fun to watch. Well enough talk... here's the long awaited wedding of the year ;)

The girls gettin all ready!



Lexi had already bought a dress before she won the wedding giveaway, so decided why not have TWO?! So of course I got beauty shots of BOTH dresses :) The won she wore for the ceremony and formals is a gown from Petals & Promises.



If you can't tell, they had such a crazy~fun wedding party! :) The girls were super cute... but the boys totally WORKED IT!!!



Then I stole the happy couple away for some formals!
