Okay, just so you know, I did not forget this blog. It's been a very busy month and I haven't had much time to download photos and edit photos for fun stuff. I also started school for my criminal justice degree, which surprisingly takes up alot of time. I have two papers due by wednesday and I haven't studied the chapters yet.
Anywho, I have some projects I am working on right now, such as:
-Graveyard photos (I am halfway through editing them. They look awesome.)
-Portraits taken up Big Cottonwood Canyon.
-ATC's I have been trying to do on Photoshop (not easy)
-I am going to scan in some drawings and such that I have done, or maybe just take photos of them, and also scan in some pictures I've scrapbooked physically. It's fun to scrapbook physically on real paper, but then its also fun to do it on photoshop. Getting the sizes right is hard though.
-Flower photos I took at my Grandma's funeral on April 16th. Those will be hard. I am going to print out all of her pictures I have and make a memorial book then I will take pictures of it and show you guys. I'm just waiting for a time when I can do it and not cry all over the pictures and elements.
Do you guys have any requests? Any challenges you want to do? Pictures you want me to post here? Just leave a comment and let me know!
Anywho, I'm going to go study, have lunch and off to do some other responbilities I have. Yay.

Funeral Photography
People have been doing funereal photography for years. Back in the late 19th century, early 20th century, most of the photos people had were of them after they had passed. That is still a tradition, although not as popular as it once was. (Morbidity plays a significant part of it's "taboo". They think it's morbid and want no part of it.)
I took some photos at my grandmothers funeral today. Well, a few, mostly of flowers and such, between the crying and participating in it.
What's your take on funeral photography? Taboo or tradition? Where do you draw the line? I will have some flower pictures posted soon. I am still trying to get things going with my Grandma's memorial I'm working on. (Time and money play a part there...)
Anyway, besides the funeral pictures, we are going to be doing some engagement photos for my sister and her fiance saturday afternoon, possibly sunday. I'm excited because I'm going to get some photos done as well! My dad is the wonderful photographer, although I might have Bri or Mick do some as well. (My mom will do some if she is feeling well enough to go. :)
So, many many pictures to do. (I am still behind on the Mt. Olivette shoot we did in January... I think it was January... hmm...)
Anyway, I will think up another challenge for you to participate in soon! Have a good weekend and happy shooting!

My Grandma, Rileys Great Grandma
Hello. I am going to be working on a special project over the next week for my beloved grandma who passed away at 6:50 last night. She was a very special woman and I want to make her a tribute that shows that. We were all there with her, so she wasn't alone. She hadn't been alone through this whole process. Someone was always there with her. I will be away while completing this project, so just be informed I have not abandoned this blog. I will see you all later.

Riley and Grandma
This is my niece and my mother, two of my favorite people. These are the two most recent photographs I've taken and I dont get the oppurtunity to take photos of my Mom very often, let alone the two of them acting uninhibited. I wish I could get more photos of them like this together. Enjoy the portraits!!

Smile!!!
Both photos I had turned into black and white photos and then faded it slightly back into color. Makes it look heirloomed. At least I think it does. Have a wonderful day!!
Spring!!!
Okay, so here in Utah our spring consists of insane changes between 60 degrees and sunny to snowy and 25 degrees. I also took the flowery photos for the challenge I presented because, honestly, there was NOTHING blooming at all when I offered it.
Anywho, here are the photos: (Which, I really like. ^_^)
