senior pictures

i was asked to take senior pictures of this lovely girl.  this was my first attempt at senior stuff, but she was really cute and ate up the camera.  i don't think i'll make this a habit, but it was fun practice anyway.

happy v-day

happy valentine's day from this kid! (and me too, i guess)

 hope you'll forgive me for these one day, jorel :) mom loves you!

bryce canyon early morning

bill called me up to go to bryce canyon for an early saturday morning.  we almost missed sunrise, which is why we went so early! but we got some good shots anyway.  his are way better than mine, but i'm definitely getting better, i hope!  i'm pretty critical so i'm trying to give myself a little more credit... these ones were taken at inspiration point and sunrise/sunset point and trail.

canyon overlook

my photographer buddy, bill and i went up to zion one night to takes some pictures.  jorel came along too.  he was saying some funny stuff.  he tripped over a rock on the trail and then said "we need to jump over the trippy parts."  then we walked through a part where the rocks were a little close together and he said "ooh, this is the squeezy part!"  it's too bad you couldn't hear it because the way he says it is just so darn cute.  anyway... the first two are up from the canyon overlook trail, the last one is of the watchmen
