For those from Poulsbo, WA, nothing more needs to be said.
For the rest of the world, if you happen to visit the small Scandinavian town of Poulsbo, be sure to stop by Sluys’ Bakery for a little bit of sweet indulgence.
I had the opportunity to spend a day last week driving around my old hometown. [...]

Taken at the Freedom Festival in Provo, UT on Saturday. Big thanks to the owner and pilot of this balloon Tim for taking my kids and I inside the balloon as it was filling with air. I only wish I had had time to get my wide angle lens on to get an even more [...]

My youngest daughter had another dance recital last night, so of course with her getting all dolled up we had to do some quick portraits.
It’s pretty funny having kids of someone that tries their hand at photography. This post was her idea, among many others. She was the creative director for the evening

I haven’t shot anything the last couple of days, so I thought I’d go back to a baby shoot from last week for this photo. I need to finish processing these photos in the next couple of days, so I may have some others to share as well.
I always love getting the detail shots of [...]

I should probably not repeat a scale photo in this theme, but I had this idea and wanted to execute it. My idea in participating in the photo challenge is not just to get me out taking more photos, but also to work [...]

I have to admit when I find a location I like I have a tendency to come right back to it with future shoots to take advantage of the current setting. This was true with the McKown’s, neighbors of mine I was excited to have the opportunity to take photos for.
Just the day before [...]

This weekend I had a wonderful overnight trip that included driving through the Alpine Loop in the mountains near where we live. We stopped off the side of the road to admire the colors starting to turn in this beautiful landscape.
I’ve always enjoyed living near mountains and majestic scenery that both inspires and refreshes [...]

I’ve been going through some photos from earlier this year that I overlooked in my processing flow. This photo is from an outing I was invited on with Rich Legg and Ann Torrence, two local photogs that do so much for our local community.
We hiked Timpanogos Cave to scope out the potential for [...]
