I love Salt Lake City




A couple weekends ago I went to Salt Lake City and I was reminded how much I really like Salt Lake City. It has all the positive aspects of a big city and yet it  does not have some of the negative ones. 
Top 5 reasons I love SLC
1. It's pretty clean for a city
2. The Avenues... a cool housing district
3. The roads are on a grid system 
4. It has diversity of people 
5. Great transportation
6.Great Farmer's Market in the summer.


That is actually 6 .

I really love this

Kim




This is my friend Kim. We intern together at the Springville Museum of Art. She helped me out this weekend and modeled for me. Look how good she did... and her first time too. Here are a couple we took at the lake... most of the other ones we shot were shot in my garage. These ones are just for fun but the other ones are for my final in my photo class. I will post the others soon.

Romance





Today I was thinking about the kind of pictures I like... the pictures that seem to draw me in, making me want more are the soft dreamy whimsical romantic pictures. If you know me at all I am in no way a romantic and in many ways a cynic. I looked up the definition of cynic as I was typing this and here it is.... one who believes that human conduct is motivated wholly by self-interest. Isn't that a sad thing. I think somewhere in my weird little head I have the thought that people who are romantic are weak and ninnies and to be a cynic is smart and strong. I don't know where those ideas came from and somewhere deep down inside me I must have some romantic in me or else I would not like these kind of pictures.P.S. My grammar sucks... I often use run on sentences and only use commas when I think it looks good. Please forgive my poor writing skills.

New images



Here are some new images that I have been working on. I recently learned a new technique in photoshop that helps you layer images and I went layer crazy.
