Platon
Maybe you don’t recognize Platon’s name, but it’d be hard to miss his photographs, as they have appeared in Time, Rolling Stone, The New Yorker, The New York Times Magazine, Esquire, Premiere, Wired and others. I’ve recently posted some details about my time in New York, but the most fabulous part of my whole week [...]

A Photo Editor – Rob Haggart
One of the great industry blogs for professional photographers (mostly magazine, editorial and advertising) is Rob Haggart’s blog. I’ve been reading it for about a year now and love how much information and honesty that he disseminates. If you care about what’s going on in the industry, I suggest you make it a regular stop, [...]
Long Island
We rode the train to Long Island. Had dinner with Kristi and her neighbor Lou. Jordan and Janna were there too. I don’t know how this happened but we slept until 11am so by the time we got up, Jordan and Janna had to head back to Virginia. See you brother. We’re going to the [...]
Mirah
I was hoping to hear more music while I was in New York, but as it turns out, the only act we saw was Mirah. Mellow and lovely.

Gheen and I arrived in New York last Wednesday with plenty of time to walk around and see if there was anyone selling hats in that town. I like the big fuzzy one.
Elliott Erwitt and Alec Soth at PhotoPlus
I’m home now, but all last week I was in New York for the PhotoPlus Expo. It’s a trade show and a series of lectures and discussion groups for professional photographers. On Thursday, I got to hear one of the world’s all-time great photographers: Elliott Erwitt. He was funny and inspiring. He was joined on [...]

See you in a week
I’ll be out of town for a week and won’t have my computer with me. But I’ll have my phone and will check my messages in the evening if you would still like to get a hold of me. xoxoxo
Engagement pictures in Provo – Lisa and Greg
They met like this: Her dad started a motorcycle shop. He hired some guy to run the place. I think that guy knew Greg. Then Lisa was at the shop or something. There was also something about kissing. Listen, the story was complicated. What it comes down to, really, is that in February, Lisa and [...]

Family Pictures – The Valentine Family
“Put your head between your legs.” Those were the first words spoken between Marilyn and Chris. He came to work in the lab were she was in charge. Their task was to dissect rats. That, on its own, wasn’t so tricky, except Chris had rats for pets when he was a kid. Luckily, Marilyn was [...]

Family pictures – The Roach Family
It won’t be long before these guys are moving to Germany. So they came to town to say goodbye to family and friends. While they were in Provo, I think they did something very smart. They made an appointment to get family pictures taken. (I love smart people). Claire found me on Stephanie’s blog. (I [...]

Family pictures – Shep and Tracy
Working as a photographer herself, Tracy had come to this place in Provo before to take pictures. She loved the colors. She shot film, then had it cross processed. So when it came time for family pictures, she remembered this place. I followed her and Shep over. I wasn’t sure where we were going, but [...]

Family Portraits – The Rencher Family
Jaryl is buying some of my photographs that he’s seen over the years and I went to Salt Lake to show a couple different print sizes. We want to make sure we get this just right. While I was there, I was able to make some portraits of their family–something for their Christmas cards this [...]

Engagement pictures – Paige and Mark
I think it’s a good sign when an engaged couple can’t stop smiling when they look at each other. From time to time I’d say, “Ok, now don’t smile for a second” and for Paige and Mark, that was impossible. They’d giggle and try not to smile, but in the end, they’re just so happy [...]

Portrait of a social media and blogging expert
Janet writes on internet marketing, affiliate marketing, business blogging, and social media. She came to my studio because she’s updating her blog and wanted a new portrait to go with it. Two things about Janet really impressed me. One – she knows so much about the convoluted world of SEO and business blogging. A true [...]

Provo Engagement Portraits – Lisa + Ryan
Lisa and Ryan came for engagement pictures. We walked around Provo a little bit, not too far from my office. Then we drove to Provo Canyon. It’s that time of year, so yes, I’ve been there a lot lately. I consider myself lucky. Do yourself a favor, and drive up there this week. Here’s a [...]
