L is for the way you look at me...

My cousin TyAnn got married April 17th, she (and her wonderful photographer) were nice enough to let me play with the camera. It was the perfect day, and Ty was the perfect bride, she was absolutely stunning.

Kidnapped!

So I'm really liking this kidnapping people randomly and taking their pictures. Over conference weekend we actually had some really nice weather (not the usual raining icky stuff) so I texted Nicole during the afternoon session and picked her up soon after it ended, I love that I gave her like five minutes to get ready for a photo shoot! But the pictures turned out great! She is very photogenic and therefore makes my job super easy! She even took a turn with the camera and did a mini shoot of me, (she took my profile picture). I love that my camera is that easy to run and take such great pictures! So here are the results from the day!

This one turned out really cool, its a big pillar at a church house in Garland.


Colored walls make the coolest backgrounds. I can't believe I got her to make a "serious" face.

This one is my favorite.

Oh and PS for anyone wondering, I recently bought lighting and backgrounds, so keep an eye out for some attempts at inside shots!

Picture Day!

So... I'm starting on a little photography business. Hopefully soon I will get a website up. But for now, I will post some of my recent work. If you know of anyone that would like their pictures done, portraits, family, engagements, anything I would love to do it for them! Contact me for a price list and we can get some options going for you!

Here's a recent shoot I did for my friend Stacy...

A Ball!!!

So a little while ago, my good friend Jeremy texted to taunt me that he was going to a ball... wait, not just a ball... a masquerade ball! So I in turn told him that I wanted to go and he was obliging and sent me the invite! Funny thing is, Jeremy and I were the only ones that really took the whole costume thing in to mind... (Stacy went with us, and had less than 24 hours notice to find something to wear, I think she did a pretty darn good job!) So after driving to Salt Lake we found ourselves in a "haunted" Baptist church... and yes there was a ghost tour and it was a bit too real for me! (especially in the catacombs, that was a bit too much for me, and I really felt that something didn't want us there). After that we just kind of chilled, played with Jeremy's sword (I wish I would have taken my camera in and got a shot of it!) and got some sweet pictures taken. And my mask totally kicked butt!!! Look at my freaking curly hair!!! hehe, it doesn't look like that very often!

Our sweet masks... made by yours truly! Yeah, I'm just that good.

Meg needs...

Ok this is really funny and strange. To do this, you just type your name and needs in quotes in the Google search engine, as in "______needs". Whatever top 10 things pop up you type in your note.

1. Meg needs a drink and to go to the bahamas and find a man.
(hahaha!)
2. Meg needs junk food.
(it says that as I'm sitting here eating sweethearts...)
3. Meg needs to work hard to maintain loyalty of fans.
(I didn't know I had any fans! WOW!)
4. Meg needs a new leg.
(Honestly this is true, I could use a new left leg, break it once and then its never the same)
5. Meg needs the ladies support right now.
(...)
6. Meg needs a gay boyfriend.
(...)
7. Meg needs her butt kicked!
(What did I do?!)
8. Meg needs your number because her psychopathic ex smashed her phone.
(this could only happen if I had an ex! so ha!)
9. Meg needs new blood.
(apparently mine is bad :( )
10. Meg needs a pie in the face.
(Is this pick on Meg day?!)

A bit of advice...

So I have a bit of advice for everyone out there. When you are getting into a car covered in snow, make sure that your wipers are turned off and your door is closed before you start your car... Otherwise your car becomes filled with snow, and your butt gets a bit wet if you are sitting in the car... Just an idea. And yes, I did do this today.

Halloween!

So I realize that my last few posts, and this one are a bit late, and I know I'm a slacker, so we will all have to accept that! lol

So here it is, Halloween!

For some reason I got it in my head that I wanted to be a flapper. And this picture is really horrid, but honestly it looked better in real life, Conly must not take pictures well.

Some of our neighbor kids, I'm really not sure what any of them were supposed to be.

Here are our pumpkins, this was the first time that we have carved pumpkins in about five years.

This was the best pumpkin by far! Can you guess who carved it? haha!
