My family, on my wife's side




Our photo shoot up at Tony Grove last Saturday. The bugs were so numerous it almost blackened the skies. This is a photo of my in-laws who have always been great to me. I couldn't ask for a better couple to emulate in so many ways. Anyway, it was a dandy time. This week I have two family reunions, three bridal shoots, and a wedding. I am open for more family sessions. The cost is $100 for an outdoor session (indoor is $200 cause it is boring) and a la carte pricing for enlargements. Anyway, a busy week all over the place.

Mission time




A couple weeks ago I photographed Evan's brothers wedding. Evan is heading out to Brazil soon. The shot on the bench reading is a mimic of a photograph I have of my grandfather sitting on a bench reading. I never met my grandfather but he served a three year mission in Argentina for the LDS church. He started the first primary in Argentina and the first foreign exchange program at Utah State University and I believe U of U. What is amazing is that prior to serving in Argentina he was 4 years in World War 2 and aftermath. He has some amazing black and white images that he took from all over the world. He died when my mother was 6 but from what I read we have a lot in common. Evan will have a great experience in Brazil. I wish him luck.

America's Next Top Model


I have been crazy busy this week and I was in Salt Lake shooting a wedding and other things from Wednesday till Friday night. I got some heat stroke at the wedding on Friday. I was not feeling well. My temperature gauges have been all messed up since the times when I worked on a concrete crew in Vegas, Pheonix and near Death Valley in the summer times. I live in Cache Valley because it is just right. Anyway, I was able to squeeze a shoot in with Keisha on Saturday. She was accompanied by her boyfriend Rich who is one of my all time best friends. It was great times. Good luck Keisha!
