About Me
Hi, welcome to my blog. I hope you enjoy your stay. My name is Laura and this is where I showcase some of my recent sessions. I enjoy capturing memories through photographs. I tend to like to keep things simple. I like to focus on the "windows to our soul"-- the eyes. I feel a photograph should speak to you through the eyes.
I shoot on location and in studio in Heber City, UT. I am available for travel worldwide. Please let me know how I can help capture your memories...it Means A Lot to me.
Call me at 435-503-1940 or email: laurameans@me.com. I look forward to hearing from you!
Photographers: I do offer one-on-one mentorships. Please contact me for more details.
I had the pleasure to take a few pictures of this sweet family. Due to Utah’s uncertain weather we had to reschedule their session a few times. It was good that we did since the evening we went out had the most amazing light and their pictures turned out great.
We had the opportunity to get away fro a little bit and spend some time in our favorite place… Hawaii. While there I attempted to get a family picture of my family using a tripod and a self-timer. It didn’t exactly go as planned. After 2 hours of trying and dealing with wind and rain, I walked away with 2 pictures that I will hang on my walls. I will hire a pro next time. Vacation photos are a once in a lifetime event to capture.
I had the pleasure of meeting this great family today. The “W” family have a beautiful home in Midway and all 31 members of the family were staying there. Here is one quick sneak peek from their session…
Johanna: Wow. That's great. The family must be so happy to have this. Nice job!
Now that Christmas sessions are all done and sent off, I thought I would give a few peeks at some of the sessions over the past month…
First up, SEVEN kids in studio. It was crazy and wild but we ended up with some great shots…
Six boys and only one daughter…
Next, there was a studio/outdoor combo session with these adorable kids…
Her name is Lucy…
I love the amazing sky we had…
The oldest two are best friends.
Finally, this family came to Park City/Heber for a ski vacation over Thanksgiving. You don’t have mountains like this in San Diego!
There are a few more sessions to post but I’ll save those for another day…
Johanna: That mountain shot doesn't even look real! We don't have those where I am either! Beautiful work. Your clients are very lucky!
Thanks for coming to see me “B” family. Your kids were so well behaved. It really made my job easy. We got lucky with great light despite the threat of rain. Here are a few from your session…
The sun peeked through for a few minutes and gave such beautiful warm light…
I love the fall colors.
Becky Eastman: These are beautiful. I LOVE the sunshine image so much! That one needs a big frame.
I am caught up in the busy season with everyone wanting family portraits for their Christmas Cards and gifts. This is one recent session that I couldn’t help but blog. To all others waiting for a blog post, it will come soon! As a reminder, sessions will be blogged for sharing after orders are complete.
The C family was such a pleasure to photograph. Their girls knew exactly what to do and were so well behaved. Amy is a talented crafter and I get a lot of my hats and headbands from her for studio work. Check out her ETSY store here.
I still have a few openings for Christmas portraits. Contact me as soon as possible if you want an outdoor session. There will be snow on the ground before we know it!
Jenifer: Beautiful pictures. Those two girls are so adorable.
Becky Eastman: These are all great but the top one is my favorite! Love the beautiful colors!
This sweet family only had one request for their session. They wanted a memory of the Provo River. Luckily the Heber Valley has plenty of beautiful locations overlooking the Provo River… if you can avoid the fly-fishers! We thankfully found a spot that wasn’t busy and had the perfect backdrop. Their little girls were such troopers and did great taking pictures. Enjoy your sneak peek “P” family. I can’t wait for you to see the rest!
P family: Laura! These are so great. And I am blown away by the picture of the two girls. I cant believe you got that shot with all of the squirming. I seriously cant wait to see the rest. Thank you!
I had the pleasure of photographing this amazing family. A few of the kids are moving across the country to attend a few different prestigious universities. Since this was the last time they would be all together for a while, they made sure to document this stage in their life with a family picture. It was great to meet you all. Enjoy your sneak peek and I will have your full gallery up shortly.
Holly: These are great! Love the last one!
Keri: Wow, amazing, great job!
Beckie: amazing Laura!!!! Can't wait for our next visit, so you can use this amazing scenery to photograph my family.
What do you get when you mix two HOT parents?
You get two ADORABLE little boys…
Congratulations to the G family for winning the Cutest Kid Contest I ran last month. I will post more from their amazing session over the next few days.

The birds are beginning to return, the tulips are poking through the ground, the snow is melting, and we can finally see our grass again after 4 months of it being buried.
