Photowalking Utah

Since I don't think I can technically post what I have been working on in studio, I thought it would be fun to show you some studio shots from last Saturday's Photowalking Utah event. After reading about the group online, my friend, Jessica and I decided to give it a try, and I am so glad we did!

Photowalking Utah is a local photo group that has monthly events and welcomes photographers of all skill levels. The best part: there is no membership fee! It's just a bunch of people coming together to teach and learn about photography. How cool is that? Everyone was so friendly and willing to share! Not to mention the fun lighting setups and trampoline.

This semester I am as usual, loving my classes. My Advanced Studies class is probably my favorite purely because, we get to set up our own shoots. As I mentioned in an earlier post, I will be focusing on food and lifestyle photography. This is a blast!

This past weekend a few of my photo buddies and I decided to go in on some rental equipment. One of the girls, Carly and I went to Farr Better Ice Cream in Ogden. Shooting on location with lights was certainly an experience. While a little stressful, I learned so much and feel the shoot went well. I think it helped that I had such fabulous models. Thanks again Natasha and Kenya!

I am not sure where my next shoot will be, although I do have a long list of ideas and plan at some point to collaborate with students from the Culinary Institute ( I have a meeting with the Program Director this next week). If you have any great ideas or want to model for me, let me know. :)
