Its not my fault...

Wow, I can't believe I let two months pass without a blog entry! I do have a good excuse, though. Steve's computer totally crashed in the middle of January, so we've been sharing a computer. Since he spends most of his time editing photos, updating the website, etc, I don't get a lot of time to do my own thing anymore. Steve is out late tonight, so I actually have a whole half hour before he gets home. I don't have enough time to do a regular entry, so here's a quickie of whats been going on in the cypertphoto world...

In February Steve took Tiffany and Chris' reception photos. They were the so genuine and sooooo nice. When they looked at each other you could feel how deeply they felt about one another. It was great.

Steve also took Natalies Bridals in February. Her dress was gorgeous. It kind of had a retro look to it with layers and lots of detail worked in. We took her up to the state capital for most of the time. I think it was the perfect setting for her personality and her dress. Then we made her freeze for about a half hour while we took photos down the street from the capital at a park. Freezing was worth it, though, as those shots were some of her favorites.

March has been a busy month. Steve took Natalie and Dallas' photos at their ceremony and reception. The reception center had this great stair case and a piano in the corner of the room, both of which were fabulous to work with and used many times for photo settings. It was fun to be a part of their entire wedding experience - the engagement, the bridals, the ceremony, and the reception. We wish you the best Natalie and Dallas!

We took Tiffaney (not the same Tiffany as above) to the Salt Lake Marina and Saltair on Saturday for her bridals. It was a beautiful day - the sun was out, the sky was blue, and it was really COLD! Poor Tiffaney was a great sport though. She just grinned and took it all on. I hope she had as much fun as we did.

Then, this Saturday, we have some engagements to take. And when April starts we have even more going on. It'll be great. And hopefully we'll have our new computer by then. We've done all the research and have narrowed it down to a couple different ones. As soon as we have it and I can spend more time updating the blog, I'll post some pics of all these fun events.

Tiffany's Bridals

So, I usually go with Steve when he has a photography session because I like the fun and excitement...especially with anything that has to do with a wedding. Last weekend Steve had an appointment with Tiffany - a gorgeous brunette with a big smile. I was sooo excited to go. And then I found out on Friday I had to work on Saturday. And you know what I had to do at work? Learn about the different forms and filings pertaining to taxes. Yawn. I was so bummed that I couldn't go with Steve to meet with Tiffany!

Anyway, as soon as I got home I made Steve show me all the pictures and I love all of them! And to make matters more depressing for me, is the fact that Tiffany was willing to do anything. Serious! Steve had her walking around down town, sitting at a trax stop, hiking around Memorial Grove... she is so cool to do that. Its a blast when brides are that willing to let the photographer 'do their thing'. I wish I could've been there. Do you know how much fun I would have had?

Alright, enough of me whinning... Here are some of my favorites of Tiffany. And if you can't tell, I'm a sucker for black & white.

Natalie & Dallas

Last weekend we had the opportunity to take the engagement photos for Natalie and Dallas. They were such a fun couple! They were up for anything... we took them all over town and up to the top of the Salt Lake Library. It was so much fun. Here are some of my favorites:

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?

Chris & Tiffany

A couple weeks ago we met up with Chris & Tiffany to learn more about them and get to know their personalities. We had a great time walking around Temple Square and the Joseph Smith Memorial Building talking and laughing. Oh! and took some engagement shots. Here are a few of our favorites:

Neir + Neha

On November 3rd we had the pleasure of taking Neir and Neha's photos at their reception. It was an amazing event. Definately one of our favorites. Everyone was ready and willing to get their photo taken and everyone was having a good time. Its wonderful to see love celebrated! Here are just a few photos. I'll post more in the next couple of days, so be sure to check back.

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...
