This is only the second time I’ve been up Big Cottonwood Canyon.
The first time was on a film set at night in winter, so that probably doesn’t count.
I went with a friend Beth and another photographer Jeffrey.
You can see Jeff’s work on flickr
All of my pictures from the event, keeping in mind I don’t know how to be selective are on SmugMug Gallery
I have set it up so the first 40 and then the first 80 are the ones that I prefer the most. So that way you don’t need to look at all of them.
We made 3 stops and throughout the canyon the fall colors were in various stages of brillance, but in most spots the trees were now devoid of leaves for the year… sad.
Lots of pictures of Aspens changing color
A Bunch of Pictures of the Storm Mountain area
I went crazy on taking pictures of this frost on the grass
Silver lake up at Brighton was partly frozen over.
This is where I actually placed the camera on the lake to take a few pictures.
The moon when we set off on our adventure was still full and hadn’t set yet.

Their wedding is December 27th, we did bridal pictures (and pre-wedding couples pictures)
We went to the same canyon that i did the other 15 photo shoots last month…
Well the leaves have all fallen but it seems that even so it just makes things a little more challenging…
and that makes it fun.
Props to the couple, her sister and cousin for staying out in the cold for a couple of hours and helping misty maneuver in her dress in the middle of a forest.
No matter how much you play with the pictures afterwards the pictures still retain the unique colors and lighting of the time of day/place and season that you took them.
I look forward to their wedding in December.

I know a lot of these kinds of pictures (specially of guys)
tend to be more serious, but I tried to throw in some smiles as well.
And even though it was all about the fall colors… I ended up liking a lot of the BW.
And I’m not a hard core B&W fanatic.
