Good things happen when you hang around Courtney. Are you like me? Do you like people that laugh easily and can make you laugh and that when you are around them, there’s an overall sense of joy and that everything is going to be ok? If you like people like that then you’d love Courtney Kendrick. I know I do.
Courtney has been using a headshot I took of her last year when she had blond hair. Now that she has brown hair, it was time for a new headshot. That’s where I come in. I drove to her house on Saturday and we had a great time. She doesn’t know this, but if it wasn’t for the appointment I had scheduled immediately following her portrait session, I may have stayed at her house all day.
They laughed, they danced, they strutted like divas. Then they left and I thought, wow, those ladies must have a lot of fun together.

Justin Hackworth photographs people that laugh, smile or frown and he wants to photograph you. Want great pictures AND a great experience getting those pictures? We should talk.
Heather and I have at least two things in common. We’re both photographers (her blog here) and we both grew up in Rexburg. That’s why we get along so well.
Thanks, Heather.

Interested in getting authentic photographs like this for you and the people you love? We should talk.
Who says you have to live in Provo to be photographed by me? And who says you have to be engaged? These two have been married three years and they live in Tennesse but had the good sense to give me a call when they found out they’d be here for a quick visit. Thanks Stephanie, for letting me photograph you two. It was great to meet you.

Justin Hackworth photographs happy people in love and wants to photograph you. Getting married? We do that, too.
Steve Clark is running for the mayor of Provo this fall. Earlier this week he announced his candidacy and today he came by my studio to be photographed. I was really happy to hear about his vision for downtown Provo, especially since my office is in downtown Provo. My favorite part is when he said there would be jet packs for everyone by the year 2015. (Just kidding. He didn’t say anything like that).

The 30 Strangers project will soon be over. But what to do about all those people that still wanted to participate after the 30 spots were filled? (We filled them in about 2 hours). Well, we came up with a great plan and a super deal. Interested parties still have a little time to get in on it. Let me know if you’re interested and I’ll give you the low-down. That’s what Jenna did. And I was so glad she did, too. She’s a photographer, too, and I always love meeting other creative types.

Want pictures like this for you and the people you love? We should talk. Getting married? Give me a jingle. I’ll catch you on the jangle.
Krissy is an opera singer. When she came to the studio I got her to sing for me and now I want her to be famous, too, because I think the world deserves to hear that beautiful voice of hers.
Last week we announced our 30 Stranger project coming up in April. I can’t wait. Well, once Gabrielle and Stephanie mentioned it on their blogs, it only took a couple hours to fill all the spots. (Last year when we did it in two days, I thought that was fast–but two hours? Wow. What’s going to happen next year?) And what to do about all those people that still want to participate, but contacted us after the 30 spots were filled? Well, we came up with a great plan and a super deal. If you want to know what it is, email me. That’s what Shelah did, because she knows the value of getting stunning portraits of her and her daughters.
Big, big thanks to the Penny Royal Cafe where some of these photographs were taken.
Next week we begin the 30 Strangers project and I’ll be making daily posts as the project progresses, so hang on to your hat. This is going to be great.
The girls soccer team at Timpview High School in Provo is traveling to Africa this summer with a program called Goals for Girls. Justin Hackworth Photography will be lending a hand in their fund raising efforts. More details on that next week. In the mean time, enjoy these images below as well as this slideshow of more team pictures.
The Robisons used to live right behind us. They don’t now, and we miss them dearly. And not just because Julie used to pass delicous food to us over the fence. (The dolmathes were my favorite and she made them from the grape leaves that grew on the fence between our yards). We miss them because they were fabulous neighbors.
So I was happy when they called and wanted some family pictures. Taken January 1, this is my first portrait session of 2009.
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 when I saw that building, I thought, well if that’s not where we’re going, we should certainly stop anyway. Turns out, that’s what Tracy had in mind. I love it when we’re on the same page.
