Steve & Amy ~ Engagements

Here is a little sneek peek of Steve and Amy’s engagement photos.  Hope everyone has a happy labor day.  My hubby and I went on our first date on labor day 1999.  We went to La Casita in Springville, then on a hike and later to a drive in movie and watched Sixth Sense.   Hmmm…pretty sure we wont be re-creating our first date today.  NOW, back to Steve and Amy!

Staying Relevant

Before I became a photographer, I used to scrapbook.  But only months after I would finish a scrapbook I would look back thru it and be so embarrassed at how it looked now.  Now that the latest and greatest had come out and everyone else’s scrapbooks looked so much more advanced than mine.  I was constantly disappointed that I had put so much time and money into a fad that changed so quickly.  Needless to say, I gave up on that little hobby. 
 
But what I learned in that endeavor has carried over to my photography a bit.  Last week my work was featured on Utah Bride Blog and the creator and friend of mine gave me the biggest compliment.  She said “Her work is classic but yet stylish”.   For some reason I was shocked that someone interpreted my work exactly like I hoped it would be.   
 
It is very important to me that my work stay classic.  Fads change but a good photograph can be relevant for ages.  
 
On the flipside, it is very important to me that classic does not equal BORING.  I work very hard on this.  My mind is always churning.  Locations. Poses. Angles. Processing.  Keeping if fresh without blatantly copying others or sacrificing my vision.   Now is the time where I apologize for my early years of photography when my vision was not so clear.  I’m sorry for the selective coloring.  I’m sorry for the pigeon toed brides with their skirts up. If you are a photographer and you have been around for 5+ years, you know the pose I’m talking about (O: 
 
ANYWAY, enough of my ramblings.

Matt & Alex

These two laugh all the time.  It was refreshing.  They are totally in tune with each others sense of humor and it was a blast hanging out with them.

Brett & Katie

To me, one of the biggest compliments as a photographer is when someone refers their friends and family to me.  There just arent words for how good that makes me feel.  So, thank you Cami, who sent her beautiful sister Katie and fiance Brett to me.  We did some field trippin’ around downtown SLC to find these fun locations.  We had awesome luck with the weather and only got rained on a little. (O:  I am so excited to do bridals and wedding all coming up within the next several weeks.
