Ice Climbing


I was up Provo Canyon in Utah a few years ago watching people cliimb the ice on and around Bridal Veil Falls. This was a good winter for it. Water seemed to have come out of every crack in the mountain and frozen on it's way down to the bottom. There was tons of Ice and alot of Ice Climbers.


I love this picture because it shows the vastness of the ice and smallness of the man climbing it. Still he just kept focused on what he was doing and climbed.

August of 2006 Kings Peak, Utah


My wife and I took a Backpacking Course at the University. As a class we did a 3day and 2night backpack trip to Kings Peak.

I didn't take my tripod with me because it would weigh too much. So I used a steady rock to set my camera on and then take the shot. Sunsets tend to come and go very quickly. You need to be set up and ready to get the shot that you want.

Let me know what you think. or If you have any questions ask away.

The Beginning

Here goes folks.

This is a new blog dedicated strictly to my photography. Well, there may be some other subjects that pop up here from time to time.

One of the goals of this site is to get feedback (Constructive Criticism) on my photography. Most people are afraid to leave comments or too busy to leave comments. If you are here looking at this take a moment to comment on the photos in each post. Tell me what you think about the photos.

For example: I like the colors. I think you should have put more of them in the picture. I wish my photographer was a good as you.

This is not a place to be cruel though. If offensive or otherwise rude comments are found then I will have to start up comment moderation. That is something I don't want to do. So please be kind. Constructive Criticism is what I am looking for.

So keep an eye on this page and soon there will be photos to critique.

Don't forget if you are looking to either have a portrait done or to purchase anything you see here on my blog leave your email address in the comments and I will contact you.
There is a scripture in the Doctrine and Covenants section 130 verses 18 -19 that reads: "18-Whatever principle of intelligence we attain unto in this life, it will rise with us in the resurrection. 19-And if a person gains more knowledge and intelligence in this life through his diligence and obedience than another, he will have so much the advantage in the world to come." That is the reason I am living in England and attending the University for the Creative Arts in Farnham. I am working on a MFA in Photography in order to further my secular intelligence. Additionally I am learning more than I ever thought I would about having faith in God and where he leads us in life. I graduated from Brigham Young University Idaho with a degree in Recreation Management and a minor in Photography. If I am not photographing, then you can find me running, mountain biking, or spending time with my family.
