Spring is Coming

Last spring I had a workshop up in Davis County Utah.

The theme was spring and we found a few people to model it up for us… more along the wedding side of things.

Above wasn’t a model but a real bride… what happened was Andrea Hanks was doing bridals that day and wanted to come join us for the end of the day here in the orchard we were in.

So above is a picture I took of her bride… in fact she was gracious enough to let everyone take a few pictures.

Two reasons for posting these now

- You might ask why post these pictures now… so long after the event? Well two reasons.

First my storage system for pictures died back in late april of last year… it took me about 8 months to get it back online. It prevented me from editing and uploading two photoshoots This one and another workshop. They were both not paid gigs so it wasn’t the end of the world… but that was 6TB of original files and I relied heavily on my SmugMug backup of those files during that down time. So three cheers for SmugMug

Second it’s about to be spring again… so hopefully this inspires some brides, families and people wanting some nice pictures.

This bride had already been married for a little while but got back in her beautiful dress and became the focus of attention for a while.

Below is a picture of her husband that came and supported her.

Turns out that up in a tree is a pretty great place to take pictures from

I do love the interval timer function on Nikons… lets you just go crazy and be creative in a set timed, let’s get this done fashion. No 1…2…3… I’m going to push the button stuff.

Below I’ll finish with some images taken by others at the event (not sure whom as they were all amassed together on my computer) I then edited them up.

    Looks like so much fun! I’m glad you were finally able to get those images back. I have a hard drive myself waiting to go in. (all personal pictures, but very important to me) Who did you finally go through to recover the images?

    I love these pictures! The last picture is stunning! The bride still pops even with everything else going on in the image.
