Utah Portrait Photography – Olson Family

Get this. After we sat down for a few minutes to talk so I could get to know the Olson’s, we went in the studio to make some portraits and I turned on the music. I selected Mates of State, the Re-Arrange Us album. The parents stared at me like I was from another planet. Then Dan said, “How did you know this was their favorite band?” These kids love Mates of State? Well now, this is going to be fun.

Seriously, what family wouldn’t want photographs like this? Look at that image #3. That’s one of my favorite portraits I’ve taken in a long time.

Justin Hackworth photographs happy families that like Mates of State, Rilo Kiley, Tegan and Sarah, Passion Pit or Tuba music and he wants to photograph you.
