Yesterday we had our annual company party/outing, and this year they decided to do a water fun day on Deer Creek Reservoir (Utah). We had a boat plus 4 wave runners for the afternoon plus all the junk food you could handle plus a great mexican dinner. If it is any measure of how much [...]

It’s that family portrait time of year! Actually I usually am much busier with family portraits closer to fall, but I have had quite a number of requests much earlier this year. I really enjoy working with families and trying to make portraits they will be happy to display on their walls and treasure for [...]

Recently I had the opportunity to do conduct a portrait session for the extended family of some friends. They wanted a mountain scene as one of the looks for their group shot, but also welcomed some variety for options and for the sub-families. One of my favorite places locally for this kind of look is [...]

This last weekend I had the opportunity to make portraits of the wonderful Rapoza kids. Lately I have been doing many photo sessions in the American Fork Canyon with the beautiful trees & mountain scenes. We used a couple of locations and took a number of shots with all the kids and of course singles [...]

I find that I end up overusing my new favorite spot each year. Once I take a set of portraits [...]

Though my original intent was to capture [...]

Rest and Relaxation
It’s amazing what some vacation time will do for your stress levels. We are spending a week at Pismo Beach with my wife’s family and enjoying every day.
Last night I did the family photo thing, being the defacto photographer of course. I handed off the camera to a sister-in-law to take [...]

I Believe I Can Fly
A few houses down the neighbors have a tramp that my kids wander over and "borrow" somtimes. I thought it would be fun to take some pics of him doing goofy things in the air while jumping. We had a ton of fun laughin at what we would do, yes, including [...]

Lazy Sunday Afternoon
My daughter came back from a family walk and sprawled out in the grass. I snagged my camera and stood over her. She laughed at me, but was patient enough to let me snap a few photos. She had a hard time opening her eyes because the sky was so bright even though [...]
