I had always heard the winter in Russia was the best. People would be so curious as to why I was in Russia during the summer because winter was so much better and so much more real. I had hoped that one day I would return to Russia for the famous winter, but never thought […]
Dearest everyone. Sorry I’ve been MIA for a little while. I’m off to embark on a mini-adventure and in order to prepare for that, I needed to disappear for a few days from the blogging world to get ready for this trip. However, soon I will be back and in action and in a new temporary location. […]
Sundays are my favorite. My restaurant is closed, most of Utah is closed in fact, resulting in leaving me to sit at home and work on things here that I have been meaning to do all week. The best part of the productivity (or oftentimes, lack of) is the brunch that happens to kick off […]
Christmas is still happening in my world. Not the music, the decorations, or anything like that. Just the gift giving. Making up for not exchanging gifts with friends and roommates a a month ago, I feel like Christmas is still discussed daily. And for that reason, I don’t feel bad posting photos of the best […]

If it’s been a while since you’ve been over to 22 W. Center Street in Provo, I highly recommend making your way over for lunch or dinner sometime soon for some great […]

I am currently working on finishing up my BFA project so I can finally get that diploma of mine. For my project, I’ll be finishing up a series I begun about two years ago, photographing towns in Utah with populations of about 800 people or less. Rough scans, but I thought I would show a […]
Image taken at the JW Marriott Hotel in San Antonio while scouting a location for family portraits. Oh, was this location beautiful. I would photograph there again any day. Plenty of good spots, and indoors, so we don’t have to worry about the terrible Texas heat or frequent rains. And did I mention it was […]
