Richie and Liz are getting married! I had a great time plowing through the snow with these two today, and Liz is a trooper! She was laughing and have tons of fun despite the 3+ feet of snow and even a bit of rain! These two are so perfect together and Richie treats Liz so well, every time she'd sink in the snow he was there helping her out as fast as he could. I'm so excited to be shooting their wedding in just under 3 weeks!

Thanks to Lauren for the help with lighting and the behind the scenes shot!

Until next time,

Jasmine won a giveaway I recently did with Jessica Nelson Makeup Artisty and Freckle Farm. Today we trudged through waist deep snow, dodge cop cars (yes, we got pulled over, no we didn't get a ticket...) and finally got up in the mountains out of the smog in the valley's of Utah. It was an absolutely beautiful day and these two are perfect for each other. They met on Tinder, which apparently is like the place to meet now, and are set for a wedding together at the Ogden Temple in April.

Last night we opened the doors of our studio to any local photographers, models and make up artists to come and use our space and shoot, mingle and network together. It was a great time, and I met some amazing new people. I didn't take many images during the event (since I can shoot in my studio any day I haha). But I did have to snag a few of Kaylin eating her donut and Jesse Walker asked for a new headshot, so of course I had to shoot those as well. Jesse is also a local photographer and is working towards his Ph.D at Utah State University.

Until next time,

It's time to find another intern! I love bringing in interns during our busy season. For the intern it's a great way to learn about photography, small business and how to run a photo studio. For me, it's a great to have a helping hand on jobs, around the studio and at events. If you're interested in starting a 3 month internship with us, let's go over some basics of what to expect from the internship.

Why Should I start an internship with Endless Photography?
A better question is, why shouldn't you? Internships are a great way to learn the business of photography. During your time here you'll be able to learn and work hands on in our studio. You'll learn how to shoot portraits, weddings, events, product photography, and more. I'll show you my editing and shooting techniques. If you want to learn photography fast, this is a great opportunity for you! You'll also get full access to our studio and equipment to practice and learn during any downtime in the studio. If you're in High School or at Utah State, a lot of time we can get you school credit as well.

What will I be doing?
As my intern you'll have plenty to do, but here is a rough list of what I would expect you'd be doing.

-Assisting in the studio and on location with portrait shoots
-Second shooting weddings and events
-Helping to run, clean and maintain the studio
-Networking, advertising and social media
-Possibly some editing and culling
-Anything else that pops up as needed

How long will the internship last?
In the past all my interns have stayed on for at least 3 months, for this spring I'm looking for someone from March 1st to June 1st. If you'd like to extend the internship and things are going well, we can discuss that possibility. On a normal week, I could bring you in for 10-20 hours a week, depending on your schedule and availability.

Is this a paid internship?
Normally I don't pay more interns for most of the day to day and smaller jobs that you're invited to come and assist on. I do however offer to pay you for any larger jobs or events that I have you second shoot for such as weddings, commercial gigs and others. There is the chance for a part time job at the end of the intership, depending on how things are going and how business is looking.

If you have any other questions, or would like to set up an interview to come by and see apply for the internship, send me an email at mike@endless.photography.

Thanks,
Mike Johnson

As photographers lot of time we get stuck thinking we need to have the best gear to get great images, and that's not true. Sure nice lenses and gear make getting great images easier, but they still don't do it for you. For years I shot with only one or two cheap ($75 or less) speedlights at weddings, commercial gigs, and portrait sessions. Even now the speedlights I use most of the time are only $150. In this class we'll teach you how to use just one cheap speedlight to get great portraits. We'll cover the basics of settings, where to put your light, and how to shoot events with a single speedlight. All of the equipment we'll be using for lighting in the class will cost less than $150. This is a great class for anyone looking to get into off camera lighting without spending a lot of time or money to get the basics down.

During this class you'll be able to learn:

-Finding the right camera settings

-On camera speedlights

-Bouncing Light

-Reflectors

-Working with wireless triggers

-Mixing ambient and flash

-Light Modifiers

-Adding a second light

-Working with your subject to get great portraits

-Hands on shooting with a professional model

Date: March 12th

Time: 9am to 1pm

Price: $50/person

What to bring:

-Camera/Lens

-Batteries

-SD Card

-Tripod (if desired)

-Speedlight (if you own one, otherwise you'll be able to use mine)

-Light Stand, Triggers, Umbrella (if you own them)

Braden and Sam are perfect for each other. They both love the outdoors, pushing each other in the snow and spending time together. They met last fall when Braden brought his dog, Charlie, to a YSA activity, and how can you not pet the dog in the room? Turns out that Braden was Sam's TA for her Wilderness Trek class (now this is a college class I'd take!) and since then they've fallen in love and are set to have their wedding in the Provo City Center Temple on April 30th. Check out their dancing-snowball throwing-winter wonderland-engagements below!

Until next time,

Julian is a fantastic model and an all around great guy to be with, we had loads of good laughs and made some great images. Check out some of my favorites below:

Freezing temperatures, rain and wind didn't stop Derek and Karina from having a blast on their engagement shoot tonight. Derek is from Idaho, Karina from Washington and they met last year at Utah State. Since their first day (which lasted all night and ended with a sunrise dance) they've grown to love each other and are on their way to getting married May 28th. I'm honored and excited to be shooting their wedding and bridals this spring. Their engagement shoot was full of windy kisses, snow dances and even a snowball fight. Check out peak of their snowy engagement shoot below!

Until next time,
