Are you getting ready for spring? I sure am! This past weekend in Logan was a gorgeous 35F and sunny so I took off with some good friends to shoot some portraits with a bit of a spring feel to them. Although it was a nice balmy 25F and breezy when we finished the shoot Austin rocked. She is so talented and such a hard worker, I always love when she's willing to work with me. Go check out a lot of her other work on her page on Facebook!

 I have tons of fantastic clients and friends here in Logan, but one of my favorites to get a call from is Mark Anderson at Anderson's Seed & Garden. Mark and his wife Ronnette are absolutely fantastic and their business is top notch! They both know so much about gardening and growing and are so willing to share their knowledge and help others in any way they can.



Mark bought Anderson's Seed & Garden from his mother in 1999 and since then they have more than doubled the size of the store as well as added some greenhouses behind their building. Mark and his team offer some the best products in the Valley but what a lot of people don't know is that they also offer a range of great services as well! From yard care, to consultation and pest control, Mark is your go to guy! This spring when you're getting your yard ready to be beautiful for summer stop by and chat with Mark. If anyone knows how to build a beautiful yard in Cache Valley, it'd be Mark and Ronnette. 

Somebody gave me a vintage looking coke bottle a few weeks ago, and well, I don't drink coke, so today I threw some water at it! Let's look at how!

A few weeks back I had one of the funnest shoots to date. I was contacted by a good friend of mine, Brent, who owns Rescue 1 Studios a video production company in Logan. Brent was going to be making a new set of promotional and advertising material for the North Logan Fire Department and was looking to add some photography to their videos. So we spent the morning with North Logan FD running through some training drills and capture video and stills for their recruiting programs. The guys on their team are seriously top notch! I had a blast shooting with them and getting to know of few of the firemen and women. 












A huge shout of thanks to the firemen of Logan and elsewhere for the hours of training and time they put into what they do. I know they love it, but we're grateful for you!

Nick and Melanie contacted me a few months back asking for some new photos, they've been married just over a year and it was time to get some new images for their wall! Of course, being December 11th we had to drive over 30 minutes to find any snow (tangent: What is going on with this winter!?). But we found a nice little area of snow and were able to make some gorgeous wintery images for them! Here are a couple of my favorite pictures from their session! 






When you're looking for new photos for your wall go check out my website at www.endless.photography and give me a call! I'd love to help you make some personalized images for your home! 

Thanks!

I work with HomeTown Values Magazine every month ensuring that they have a kick butt cover photo for their Cache Valley Issue! I look forward to this shoot every month because it's usually one of the funnest shoots of the month! We're always trying to create a new and captivating image for the magazine and I believe that photo on the front has a lot of impact on who picks up the magazine. For the January cover we are working with Complete Nutrition of Logan! Last night I managed to talk them into hiking over 4 miles and 1,200 feet in elevation gain to get some killer shots! Be sure to check out the behind the scenes shots below as well! 

James and Jessica rocking their Complete Nutrition Gear at the top of the cliffs in Logan Canyon!

Seriously, These two are epic and were a blast to shoot with!

Behind the Scenes, and a huge thanks to Nikki for shooting these and helping get my gear up here!

If you know me, you know I'm terrified of heights... bah! That's as close to the edge as I could get!

For December 9th, there wasn't much snow that high up, but it did make the hike a bit slippery!

Over the weekend I set up a fabulous group shoot in Logan with some incredible models and photographers. I love working and collaborating with other photographers, which is why I organize the Cache Valley Photographers Club every Wednesday in Logan, there is so much value in working with other photographers. This past week I spent time working with these two wonderful models, Mandylyn and Christie. They both are killer talented models who were a blast and to work with!




The dresses for the shoot were provided by Gown Town and we had two amazing make up artists, Tia Montgomery and Carrie Purser.

Eric is a great friend of mine (actually, he's my second cousin!), but we've been great friends since, whew, I dunno, forever. But after our missions we both came up to Utah State and I spent a few months the summer before I got married rooming with him and some of our other high school buddies, and we had a great time. He is seriously one of the most adventurous and fun guys I know, and guess what!? He's getting married! In like a month! Anyway, I had a blast shooting his engagements with his gorgeous fiance, Nichelle, who, I have learned is a famous blogger! Heck, I follow her blog, and you should too! Anyway, they are a great couple, and we had so much fun taking pictures, shaking blossoms off tree's and watching Eric fly down the path like a ninja! But, on the to picture!
