Photo of the Week


Today my photography team and I had the opportunity to shoot Kailee and Josh's wedding at the Salt Lake Temple. It's much more fun shooting there in the winter as compared to the summer. It's not nearly as busy! I was noticing spots to shoot where I've never noticed before. Hence, the above image. I saw this spot and decided to take advantage of the fire hydrant...(that doesn't sound right). Also, there was an interesting beam of light being reflected on an extremely shallow angle. You can see the tree on the left casting an awesome shadow and casting it only on the wall, not on Josh or Kailee. As you can see, the photo turned out great!

Photo of the Week


In the above image we have my two brothers, Rhett & Brandon, and their friends Brad and Jake. These mentioned individuals work together at a cabinet and entertainment center shop, Regent Custom Cabinets. They commissioned me to come down to their shop to shoot some products... well, we got carried away.

Photo of the Week


in the above image we have a business head shot that I shot the other day. The reason this is the photo of the week is because in the above image I tried a different technique other than my regular method of shooting a business portrait. This time I used only one light, rather than four, and a reflector. And I must say, I think it turned out great! The image was shot at 200iso at 1/125 @ f4.8 and I'm proud to say that this image is straight out of the box, no photoshop adjustments.

Photo of the Week


In the above image we have a portrait from a wedding I shot last summer. The image was shot at iso 200, f/16 @ 1/125. I usually like to use a smaller aperture like f/16-22 on bright sunny days at this particular location. It helps bring both the couple and the temple into a fairly wide depth of field. And with the help of a fill and a team of reflectors we get the photo of the week.

The wonders of Photoshop


It seems like ages since I've posted anything on here. Again, I'm sorry for not posting on a regular basis. I'll try better this year =)
In the above images we have a before and after sample of a photoshop job I did for a loyal customer. I'm kinda proud of the final result, so I thought I'd share it with you. Restoration work is one of my favorite things to do in photoshop. So if any of you out there have anything you would like restored, I would be more than happy to do it.

Photo of the Week


You probably recognize this family by now. They not only appear in my portfolio on a regular basis, they're also my best clients. The image was shot at 1/1000 @ 400iso. In Photoshop I adjusted the color and levels to my liking, add a great brick wall, a cute couple and an adorable toddler... and you have the photo of the week.
