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.

I photographed shapes.
/
I made it to Best Aunt status once more!
What a beautiful day.
8ft Rorschach /
I wanted to do something for myself the other day. After 60 hours of editing in front of a computer in a 2 day span I decided I was going to have a "me" day.
I had a giant roll of seamless white paper that had been damaged and needed to be put to use so I rolled it out and cut 8x12 foot sheets, dumped a cup of paint down the center and made monster rorschach prints.
I felt liberated and wild, much like I hoped I would grow up to be like but have forgotten about most days.
This top ink blot was a smaller practice sheet and turned out to be my absolute favorite. It looks like bird in flight.
Aaron posing in front of one of the giant sheets.
This looks like the skeletal structure of the spine and shoulders.
Beards /
he has a beard.
oh and the instax! such a magical tool.
Kinfolk Magazine /
Honestly one of the most beautiful, elegant magazines out there.
I photographed the cover image last fall for this issue.
I suggest you check out the website and order yourself a copy!
A girl named Kayte /
lovely.
I've been itching to photograph her for a while.
lost in the woods /
saturday night KJO and I drove an hour into the mountains to go to a cabin where a giant collection of hipsters gather each winter to play and enjoy music. After the long drive we had to park the car and walk into the dark snowy woods with nothing but really bad directions to the cabin. We walked in a few circles, found many wrong cabins, walked in a few more circles, fell in some giant snowy holes, slid a few times on our bums, walked up and down then up once more to only go back down again... this whole process was repeated twice in the dark until a stranger in a snowcat was kind enough to take us to the correct cabin (I was a little nervous because scenes from the movie The Shining went through my head) but we arrived just in time to watch my lovely and talented friend perform and it was worth it.
the end
/
here is the rest of Joe and Anne shoot!
They were such a relaxed couple.
I am happy to know them.
Utopia Billboards /
Thanks again to my lovely friends who are so willing to let me disfigure their faces!
It was worth it right?
Ross Family Shoot /
This whole shoot makes me so happy.
The Studio! /
It's finally all put together and fully functioning!
I am in love.
Emily is coming for a visit /
I am excited for her to come... I met Em this summer in my program at SVA, we just happened to go to Art Center except with a 4 year gap between.
She is coming to Utah for the second time in her life to visit me and meet some of her long lost mormon relatives.
Em, I am excited for our soon to be photo adventures.
