It would be nice to own nothing so that others couldn't take anything from you.
Michelle and Brandon: July Wedding /
I photographed Michelle's Bridals in the studio
a few weeks before the wedding.
Her dress was amazing.
Getting ready images from the morning of the wedding.
I thought it was sweet the her cat sat and watched the whole process.
The wedding was so beautiful, Michelle is an artist so she had so many details that reflected the couple.
It was a beautiful evening.

oh so quiet.
A new series /
and I am excited for it
A Chair, Michelle and a Mask /
Yesterday I decided that today would be dedicated to doing what I wanted to do and what I love. LOVE...
Love keeps coming to my mind when I think of today. I woke up and went on a search for my stool (I am laughing right now at the double meaning of that statement... but you know the one I mean), I have been dreaming of a nice, simple chair and today I was going to get it! It took a few different shops to find it but when I did I knew we belonged together, it was love. I had asked a bride of mine if she wouldn't mind sitting for me, she was sweet enough to come spend time with me and allow me to position her around my studio like the lovely doll she is, it was magic.
As you will see I also purchased some animal masks and wanted to bring them to life.
I am not sure why I am so attracted to creepy animal masks, I love the way they tear reality from itself and offer a bit of narrative.
I fell in love with my space again today. I fell in love with light again. I fell in love with solitude. I fell in love with calm and quiet.
Food /
I have really grown accustom to photographing food... Mostly because I can eat my model when I am done photographing it.
POW /
hahahahahahahaha......
/
AmyJo and Blake.
I just adore Amy Jo. I am so happy to see her so happy!
Goose the Cat /
We have all had animals that have been alive since we have memories. This is Goose, she is one of them. Freshly shaven, showing her age, she must be 200 years in cat years.
Jaycee: She dances /
shot last week in my studio.
Max is awesome /
That's my dog!

Lake Powell /
Last weekend we disappeared for a few nights to camp and boat in Lake Powell. If there is ever a time when I feel more small and significant at the same time it is in when I am amongst the history that the canyons bear. I really enjoyed my time there, especially the consuming large amounts of Uncrustables and cheese dogs, hiding in creepy cool caves when the sun was to hot and being able to be without cell phones and internets to pull us away from the experience.
Dallas /
Midway Utah plus a lady like this makes my job a very easy one!
Ryan /
I am diggin' these from today.
Joe and Anne's Bridals /
Shot in my studio.
I thought I would do something a little different and use some paper I had laying around, I think it turned out nicely... although I think the bride and groom were a little skeptical when they saw party streamers hanging from c-stands when they arrived.
I will post the wedding shortly so check back soon.
loved this morning /
M & B /
Such a nice shoot!
Fresh comes to mind when I look at them.
Michelle is an artist, her house oozes creativity! I loved poking around and photographing all the details.
Best moment of the day /
I can't get over how funny this little girl was.
No direction, this is her doing her thing.
