"band shots"


haha so here is one more post for the night...these are some friends of mine that wanted some "band shots" done of them...seeing as technically they arent really a band, it was really all for fun, and trust me we got some good laughs out of it :]
thanks guys!

ZOO DAY!


You really have no idea how much I love the zoo and how much i just love animals in general. I think that they are the most amazing and beautiful things in the whole world. This week I was lucky enough to go with my mom, sister, and nephew to the Hogle Zoo, and boy did we have a great time. Elephants are by far my most favorite animal EVER...i collect antique elephant statues i have clothes with elephants on them and lucky enough i was even able to find paper made out of elephant poop at the zoo that i have been trying to find forever haha. But anyways i was so excited to take my camera not only for the idea to take some personal photos of the people i love, but also to get some shots in of the animals i love. I really could have sat and took pictures of the elephants all day but seeing as that wasnt going to happen i got some shots of the other animals as well.


The little guy in the first picture is a type of parrot from south africa, he made a really funny noise that caught my attention but also the colors of him and his toy in the cage caught my eye.


The giraffes were a real treat because they were outside and coming really close to all of the people, giraffes would have to be my second favorite animal because of how tall they are and (as shown in the picture, they are knock kneed like me!! im so printing that picture and putting it in my apartment btw.

Then of course there are the elephants, the last picture would have to be my favorite, it was our second visit to the elephant encounter for the day and they finally put some hay up for them to eat, i loved watching this big guy eat with his trunk :]

rain...rain...

Even though it was a really rainy day today down in Price, luckily Becca and I were able to get some really cute photos of her in. Since I haven't done any photos next to my favorite old door for awhile i decided it was time to take some there. The rain is really a pain in the bet when it comes to photo shoots because of worrying about getting your camera wet, but when you have a nice boyfriend that will hold an umberella over you everything seems to work out :]. I've wanted to take a shoot in the rain for awhile and well, today was the day! I really hope you enjoy and make sure to comment!

update update

So I don't really think I have any pics to put up for this post but i just wanted to give you a heads up to what is coming up for me and my blog. Tomorrow I have a shoot with a senior named Kody (yay! a boy finally!) even though its after graduation his family wanted some photos of him so we are taking some of him at the skatepark and around some grafitti (if i can find some). He sounds like a pretty cool kid some im excited for that!
On Saturday morning im taking a shoot of three more girls in just a fun fashion shoot which will we just be something fun to do!
I also just got a text from my best friend Court who's family wants me to do pics of them on June 13th. I am so excited for all these shoots because I thought as soon as summer came around the shoots would die down but they are actually picking up really well.
If anyone wants a fun shoot or any type of shots done let me know and we can figure out pricing and what not, summer is a great time for photos and I need tons of practice and shots for my portfolio.

I can't seem to help myself...



Yesterday I had the great oppurtunity to take pictures of my gorgeous cousins, originally the plan was the just take "senior" like pictures for the one but her sister really wanted some too so we went for sister shots as well :] These four pictures are my four favorite out of all of them, even though there are so many more that i am sure i will be posting later. We first started off in a place near some train tracks up by UVSC, after we headed to my favorite place which was an old abandoned house (that smelled a little like cats). The lighting was just amazing and some more of my fav shots came from there so as soon as they are edited make sure to look back for them. Thank you so much girls seriously when i move up there you are totally going to model for me!

mother's day

haha so this is my boyfriend sam and his little sister morgan, they decided to give their mom a photo of them for mother's day and they asked me to take it. of course im using my favorite chair that doesn't belong to me and the lovely field behind my house. just so you know this pic really shows off their personalities i think its so cute

"hot-mess"

I was at work today kind of bummed that i havent done a photo shoot for awhile and decided to just send out a text to see if anyone wanted to do a really quick shoot. Luckily Jenna, her little sister Megan and her friend Jacki were all in. Basically the theme for the shoot was "hot-mess" i really just wanted to make them look like they jumped in my costume trunk rolled around for a little bit then came out looking fantastic :] this shoot was really fun and luckily i got two more girls who are more than willing to do random photo shoots with me!!!

Joe's Valley


This week i really wanted to do something fun seeing as i just graduated and it is the beginning of summer for me! Also i made this huge to do list for summer and this was totally on it. Joe's Valley is located about 40 minutes away from price and it really popular for bouldering and seeing as my boyfriend is way into that we decided to take some friends and go camping there for a couple of days. It was so much fun to meet people from all over the U.S. (including Canada) and to just relax and eat camp food! I didnt take as many pictures as i wanted to but its all good im sure we will be going again sometime. The top two pictures are of Sam attacking the problem "Big Joe" its a V7 that is so intimidating i dont know how they do it. The third picture is one Sam took of me doing my first V1 haha im proud!! i need to work on these chicken legs and arms of mine bahaha...oh plus my arms look like lobsters from it because of the lovely sunburn i now have.
