Salt Lake City Urban Family Photographer (The Burch Family)
Miss Candace, now Mrs. Burch chose an Urban Photos hoot in Salt Lake because outside in January is blah. But architecture is always awesome regardless of the temperature outside. She has been a light in my life. She found my personal blog about my baby who passed away when her sweet lil niece passed away. Her niece 'kaylie bug' shares James' anniversary. She has the gift of compassion. She hardly knew me, but yet, loved me in a dark time in my life. . . it's easy to love someone when they love you . . . and they don't have to. She would be easy to love regardless, but she brings sunshine to my heart. I first became friends with this lovely lady when I became single. She had just met this fella. I remember how GIDDY and NERVOUS she was over this one. His name is Matt. She likes to call him Matthew Byron Burch, cause she loves him. Just a little:). Not only can you See the love these two have, you can feel it. He adores her. I want that. I will have that. She adores him, and his two children. They are such a great example of a healthy blended family. LOVE your face Candace:).

People ask me often during our sessions, "How did you get into photography." "That's a good question" I always reply. Where to begin with that question, there is a realm beyond this earth why I do it. But, I think in my head, I can't start there. So, I reply, "I have always had a passion for photography. I asked for my first camera the Christmas I was 6. My mom wouldn't give me one because, 'it was expensive to develop the film'". So, I bought myself one, a hot pink one that took 35mm film, for my 7th birthday the following year. She was right, it was expensive to buy & develop the film, but I didn't care, I loved how it made me feel creating something that I could say, I created. I paid for all of my film & developing, and, it was worth it. I dabbled with it in High School and decided to major in it in College. Plans changed half way through college and I got married and had a baby. I had a beautiful boy. His name is James. He, to my knowledge, or my biased opinion, was.the.cutest.child.in.the.world. I was very diligent in getting his milestone pictures from JC Penny. Every 3 months. It sufficed. Kind of. He was an easy baby to take pictures of. Happy always, smiling freely. I had another son when James was just 15 months old. We agreed upon the name of Spencer. When Spencer was 6 months old, I felt a void in my life. I needed something to do for myself. I needed an outlet from being a mom. I needed a break from the insanity. So, I bought myself a camera, and a website template and started creating my photography business. Not even a day later, after I decided to dive myself head first into a huge passion of mine, my oldest, my most.beautiful.boy flew home to Heaven due to a tragic accident. Coincedence? No. There is not a chance that photography came to me, at my darkest time. It truly, became what I was hoping it would be, my outlet, but not an outlet from my kids, an outlet for my grief. I prior to April 20th, 2006, was quite a happy individual. Easily appeased. Easily smiling, much like my oldest son. From that day, I found one of the only things that made me smile and remember what life was like prior to that day, was you, my clients, you lovely people who invite me to share your memories with you. Photography was a gift given to me, to get me through losing him. Photography, is James' gift to you, I can share it, and I Share him. I give to you, what I wish I could go back and give to myself. The mischevious looks, the innocent looks, the smiling, the running, the dancing, the hugging, the loving, the real.down.to.earth true love a family shares. We have pictures of our precious James, for them I am grateful. But to say that I wish I had more, would be an understatement. To say that I wish I had hundreds of his true personality rather than just a smiling kid at the camera is a desire in my heart, I will never be able to fulfill. While, most people don't lose their child to death like I did, EVERYONE will lose their child to time. Everyone. These images, these pictures, are far more valuable than you will ever dream, until you stare at them 20 years down the road. These, are one thing in life that will never depreciate with time. They only become more valuable the older they become. Invest in your memories, you never know how valuable they will become. This is why I love my job, this is why I do it. I give to you, what I wish I could give to myself. Love, SG
