needles. p.s. don’t faint. / utah wedding photographer

it had been a month since my last allergy shot. and today i finally got back on track. i remember when i went to see the allergist and they poked my back with extracts from every plant that’s poisonous to my body. and of course the skin on my back swelled into dozens of...
a hammer and some place serene / utah wedding photographer
dear yan,
i took some time to meditate today. i went to the serenest place i know and felt at peace. we all need time for something like that. and surprisingly it’s not unlike the feeling you get from doing some hard physical labor. today i was hammering and sawing and lifting, working on the studio...

the other day when i asked you how many copies of my album we should order i was thinking somewhere around 300. you know, something modest, but enough that we could still distribute them over the next couple years. so i was a little surprised when you said 50. and at first i wasn’t...
mama bear | utah children’s photographer, boise children’s photographer
i don’t know about you, but I thought this was a photography blog? hehehehehe. okay, okay, you busted us. sometimes we like to just write. and sometimes its a little too easy to click the ol’ “publish,” tab before digging around for some fresh photos to post.

dear yan,
thanks for the lovely introduction. you and i both know that by “encouragement” you meant that time when you sobbed on my shoulder and said “i quit. i quit. i quit!” but i helped you see the beauty you possessed inside; i gave you a sense of pride. or maybe you were thinking of...
