Draper Temple Baptism Pictures | Jones | Whitney Beth Photography
I’m thrilled to share a glimpse into a truly special day – Jones’s 8th birthday and baptism photoshoot at the Draper LDS temple. It was a whirlwind of excitement, laughter, and precious moments that I’ll remember forever.
We started the evening in a bit of a rush, I had to bring all the boys with me to the photoshoot, and dinner took longer than I thought to make. We were literally racing against the setting sun as we drove to the temple. When we arrived, I quickly threw on my baby carrier, put Wells in it, and grabbed my camera – we were on a mission!
To keep the boys motivated, I promised them a treat of Crumbl cookies afterwards. This looming bribe helped tremendously with keeping them in line at the photoshoot. As the sun began to set, its golden and brilliant rays cast a magical glow over the temple grounds, which were bursting with vibrant Daffodils, hyacinths, and tulips in every direction.
As I snapped away, capturing these precious moments, I couldn’t help but reflect on how quickly time flies. Jones is 8 already – I can hardly believe it! Being able to take these baptism pictures for him was such a special moment for me and made me so incredibly grateful for this job.
To add a personal touch to the photos, I decided to recreate some of the poses that Danny, my husband, was in for our wedding pictures at this very temple. It was a beautiful way to connect these two important milestones in our family’s journey.
The photos turned out even more beautiful and fun than I could have imagined. But more importantly, I had the best time laughing and goofing around with my boys. They are so much fun, and I feel incredibly blessed to be their mom.
