Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back. Most of you probably don’t remember the song but it brings back lots of childhood memories for me. Yes, I must be getting old. It is bound to happen to all of us eventually. I have lots of fun and exciting things coming up in the next few months. Lots of weddings, engagement sessions and bridal sessions. The last bridal show I participated in was so successful that I have decided to do it again. It will be at the Southtown Expo Center on April 17th. Here is a link for more info http://utahbridalshows.com/. I hope to see some of you there.
Well, on to the task at hand. I met Stacie, her mom and her friend at Temple Square in Salt Lake City to shoot her bridal pictures. It was cold and rainy. Most brides would call it their worst nightmare. Stacie was awesome! Not one complaint and she had fun. If you look closely below you can actually see raindrops streaking down and goose bumps on her arms in some of the pictures. Enjoy and feel free to comment below and/or share this post via your favorite social media outlet

Here we are again. It has been a crazy year so far. I don’t think I have had a chance to breath since the new year started. It has been a great year so far though. Many great things happening and a lot of accomplishments. I am trying hard to stick to my two resolutions this year. They are very broad but that is working for me. How are you doing with your resolutions?
The bridal show back in January was a big success. I owe a big thanks to Brett and Dustin for helping me out. I couldn’t have done it without them. I got a lot of bookings and met a lot of fun people. I think this is going to be a big year for Legend Photography!
On to more important subjects, I went out with Brett and Heather last Saturday to shoot their engagement session. We started in downtown SLC at 8am for the first hour. It was really cold! My fingers went completely numb. It was worth it though, we found some cool new locations and got some great results. the light was perfect. After the first hour we went up in the hills above downtown. Once again, another awesome new location. It was warmer, although you can’t really tell by the goose bumps on Heathers arms. I can’t believe they both decided to finish the session in t-shirts. crazy-ness! What you see below is not for the faint of heart. There is kissing! Hope you enjoy.

My new years resolution is to be more determined and focused. So far so good. I am working on improving everything in my life. Working out more often. Spending more time doing the good things and less time doing the things that waste time. Hope I can keep it up and keep improving. What is your resolution?
I am very excited to be bringing in this new year with my first ever bridal show at La Caille. If you have never been there, the place is magical. It is gorgeous!

The Boudrero family lives in our neighborhood and are our good friends. Their 10 year old son Dallen is a wonderful, kind boy. He was one of my scouts and I loved working with him. Dallen developed Autism as a young boy. I have always felt a close connection to Dallen. I believe part of that connection is that my nephew also has Autism. There have been some new treatments in the last couple of years that are helping dramatically and even curing this illness. Dallen’s parents want to give him the chance to see if these treatments will help him. It is going to be very expensive. Myself and others want to help with this burden. They are having a fundraising luncheon and silent auction. Please read below for the details. I believe we can make a difference for this family. Come have some pizza for Dallen. Thanks

I had Piper over for some fun a few days ago. She is a darling baby. Very happy and content. After we shot these we went over to the park to shoot her whole fam. I am still working on those but wanted to get some of these up before I hit the sack.

Well, we had a great Thanksgiving. I had lots of free time and as usual I did not get as much done as I wanted. That is just the way my life is. Never enough time for everyone and everything. Lots of things I keep telling my wife I will get done that keep getting postponed. Eventually I have to get caught up, right? On that same note, I posted a teaser for this family session a while back and promised the full post. This is it. This family was a lot of fun. Their daughter is turning 8 and getting baptized so we took a few of her in her baptism dress. They turned out great. She was an excellent model. On to my favorite part, the pictures!

I just finished designing this album of Matt and Katherine’s wedding at the LDS Temple in Salt Lake City, Utah. I am using these to order a sample from my new wedding book vendor, Kiss. As soon as they arrive I will do a post of the final product. I ordered a 12×12″ and a Little Kiss 4×4″. They should be here in a few weeks if anyone wants to see them up close and personal. I can’t wait to see them! I will be designing another book soon and will post that one as well. Thanks for looking….
I have been a little backlogged the last little while and my personal projects, like this blog, have had to take a backseat to more important things. Mike and Hillary met at their work. They quickly became best friends. What better thing, than to marry your best friend. I am that lucky.
We shot their engagement pictures back in June at Snowbasin, Utah. It was gorgeous! It was also raining most of the time. These two were troopers. They got wet and muddy and smiled through the whole thing. I believe it was worth it. The pictures turned out fantastic. I am going to keep these short as I am working the engagement, bridal, and wedding all into one post.
We shot Hillary’s bridals in August. It was hot but we started early enough that it wasn’t too bad. Hillary has the most amazing personality. She is always happy and has a great outlook on life. We met in North Ogden at The Barn golf course. I am a big fan of ivy in pictures and luckily I found some.
The wedding was on September 5th back at Snowbasin. I had not been up there for a long time and had not seen all of the changes brought about by the Winter Olympics back in 2002. A lot had changed. It is a really nice place. We traveled up the gondola to the Needles Lodge for the ceremony. The view was majestic from the patio where the ceremony was held. After the ceremony a small storm front moved in and it got a little windy. Not much fun for pictures. Back down the gondola we went for the dinner and reception at Earl’s Lodge. The food was delicious. The reception was fun. Hillary’s nephew was a riot. He liked to see if he could get his hands up in front of his face before I got a picture. Looks like I won and I hope he likes seeing the proof in this blog.
