lately i have been wondering what to do with my life... For the past 4 months i have been looking into colleges and contacting other photographers in other states, trying to find a job as a nanny, or any job at all. I have lived in Utah for almost 21 years now and i am ready to get out! I have ruled out art schools because lets face it.. those are just too expensive, but i had a lovely chat with the wise Nicole Hill. She told me just to find a photog i love in cali, work for them, attend a community college there, and get my degree. Mother thinks i should go to New York and do the same. Hmmm i love both CA and NY. I guess it all depends on housing, a job, school, money... you know just the little details. haha. So i am stuck. And in a rut. I am ready to get out on my own and live in another state.

{Even though i will miss HER!}
So the question is would i make a better beach bum, or city gal?

malorie + kevin

One of my good friends got married a couple weeks ago. Tear. And i took a few pictures of the lovely couple at the temple, and at the reception. Let me just say this. Such a gorgeous reception. It was all vintage. Right up my alley! Everything was so creatively done, i was amazed.

arial

Little miss GORGEOUS Arial is going to compete in hopes of coming the next miss Utah. I'd say she has no fear. She'll win for sure! I mean just look at these pictures, she has the perfect features for peagents. So this is a funny story, her mom found me via facebook and wanted me to do some portraits of her daughter, little did i know she is lil sis' dance teacher! Oh and also on this shoot we found out we live just two neighborhoods away. Oh how this world is so small. Well i can't post all of these pictures, because they are using some for the peagent. BUT i can post my favorites. HOORAY.

ok hi, i think this is my favorite!
