This is my friend, Taylor, and her husband, Corbin. I met Taylor while going to school at UVU and we graduated in the same class. We took so many classes together that I honestly don't think I could count them! We saw each other here and there after graduation, each busy with our own lives. All last year I kept having thoughts of, "I wonder what Taylor is up to?" or "I haven't seen Taylor post anything for awhile, I hope everything's ok." It wasn't until a few weeks ago that I learned that Taylor and Corbin were having problems with infertility. My heart just sank. I know about as well as anyone how hard it is getting these babies to Earth. After miscarrying my baby girl and then delivering my sleeping Banks the reality of how lucky I was to have Jones struck me. I felt terrible for not following those promptings and checking in on my friend. I started texting Taylor right away and suggested we do lunch. All the while my brain was spinning, thinking of all the ways I could help out. We met up and ended up talking for two hours at Chick Fil A. (Jones was in Heaven with the play place.) It was there that I told Taylor my grand plan. I am going to be hosting a mini session night. 15 minutes, all the images, and pay what you can. The money from these shoots will go directly to Taylor and Corbin. Their only option is IVF. Which is spendy in and of itself, but add that in to the tough year they've had and it seems like a daunting goal. (You can read their story on their Go Fund Me account.) And to top it all off, I offered to photograph Taylor and Corbin. They hadn't had pro pictures taken of themselves since their wedding! 

     We took pictures at my favorite little park; Victor's Pond. I knew it was super green right now and that it would look amazing with Taylor's hair! This is also where we will being doing the mini shoot fundraiser! I loved walking around with these two, just talking and taking in all that beautiful golden sunlight. I'm so happy that I could give this gift to my sweet friend.
