We're Animals about Cooking!

Last week Steve got to go to Hogle Zoo with Chef Todd Leonards culinary class. I'm sure there was a good reason for it and I'm sure it had nothing to do with wanting extremely fresh exotic meats.

This is Chef Todd Leonard, CEC.
This is Todds class hiding in a cave. There are a lot of scarey wild animals to hide from at the zoo.

It was such a traumatic experience, they needed a group hug.

This photo is of a rare species called Tellingasneakysecret-o-saurus.

Don't ask what Todd is doing here. Steve even told him where the public restrooms were.

Nice shot of the, um, giraffe.

Keep this little critter in mind when you view the last photo...

Man, these people really like each other!

I hope they washed their hands (and head) before preparing the food.

Remember the cute critter in the photo above?

Family Photos in the Fall

In November we took some family portraits of Kenny & Linda and their girls. They have a huge backyard with trees and leaves everywhere... it was perfect for portraits in the fall. They were such a fun family to spend time with and take photos of. The whole family has beautiful smiles and it wasn't hard to capture the fun spirit everyone had at the photo session. It was great. Here are some favorites...

Ron + Tiffany

Last weekend we were able to take Ron & Tiffanys engagements. We first went to Memory Grove and took advantage of the bridges, streams, and matured trees that surround the park. Then, we headed to Antelope island. We wanted to get a few "beach shots". When we got there, though, the Salt Lake was perfectly still... it was like glass. While we didn't get the best "beach shot", we did get some really cool lake shots. We really like the results of all the photos and it was soooo hard to pick a few to post, so I picked a lot. :)

September Snow

Saturday night we met up with the Henry's and took some family portraits. We met at a beautiful home in Sandy that had an amazing yard with trees and a pond. We were really excited. Then, wouldn't you know it, it snows...in September! So, we had a change of plans and took the photos indoors and on a covered balcony. We had so much fun! The boys were great at posing and knew exactly what to do when a camera came out. Everyone was relaxed and had a great time. Here are some of our favorites from that night...
