You Should've Been Sick

You know who you are.

Saturday was the photowalkingutah.com studio lighting event, well more like extravaganza. I’d like to say I was in control and knew exactly what I was doing. Unfortunately, I have to say that I was fairly clueless and completely terrified. The first station was the lensbaby my hands were shaking so bad that @nicolesy had to help me change my lens out. It got a little [...]

One Thing's For Sure

@nicoleys I ain’t
One of the local photographers that I follow is Nicole Young. She is an amazing talent, and she is very willing to share her knowledge. If you are not blog stalking (link) her you are making a critical mistake.  Lately, she has been doing food photographs with tips and methods to make better looking food pictures. So here is what I have picked up so far.  Remember any problems are the [...]

Roasted Garlic

For what it is worth I loved Roasted Garlic long before it became en-vogue.  The Italians actually use this as a toast topping (called a crostini) I have to admit that I love it on a thin slice of a hard chewy bread with a drizzle of Balsamic vinegar.  The recipe is really easy and the payout is huge.  Try it sometime.

Photo Challenge Winner

These are the gears that each month get you your Ensign. I posted this picture because it shows to how important it is to work together. 

This has been tough for me decide… But after thinking about it alot and going back through the entries.  I have chosen Ross to be the winner of the 25 dollar gift certificate.  He was the one that made the most constant effort to go out, and get pictures [...]

My First Official Protrait Sitting

So I had a “client” (the lady who let me buy my camera) tell me that she wanted pictures done of her two year old son.  I was very happy to accommodate her with this request.  I am SUPER happy with how the pictures turned out.  I learned a couple of things: like it is really tough to shoot for the crop (we wanted 8X10s), and getting lighting right is very tricky, but it is [...]

Photography's the Name

Elation’s the name.  So after the last trip to Temple Square I charged my batteries and made sure I had a cable release for the camera.  here are some of the pictures I took over the course of my trips to get a picture for next years Christmas card. I am thrilled with a couple of them, can you guess which ones.  I truly hope everyone’s holidays were great and that you all have [...]

Photography Is Your Name

And frustration is your game.Last night I went to Temple Square to take some pictures.  I went alone so that I could take all the time I needed.  Anyway, I waited 40 minutes in the church office “plaza” waiting for the following shot to clear of people.  40 minutes in the rain/snow standing in one place worrying if my battery is going to die before getting to take to the picture I want, worrying about [...]
