Busy Busy Busy….
Well it's been a while since I have been able to get around to the blog because things have been kind of crazy over here on this end. But I just wanted to touch base with those of you who do visit the site and glance over here at the blog and let you know that we are still here.
Things seem to be warming up here in the northern part of Utah and hopefully it is a sign that spring and summer are coming. With the change of season things start to pick up a little bit more on the photography end of things because people don't mind standing outside in the green and warmth of the sun as apposed to the cloudy 15 degree weather with out the wind chill. So with that we are going to be doing some portfolio work. So for you blog readers if you are interested in participating in this drop us a line and let us know what kind of pictures you would like us to take and we will see what we can do.
Well that's all I've go for right now. I will be touching base back with you hopefully sooner then last time.

Random Things- Iphone Project
Lately I have been so busy running around and trying to get things in order and working and completing projects that I don't have time to take pics. I love taking pictures and sometimes of random things.
So about two weeks ago I bought the coolest iPhone app called Hipstamatic. Great app tons of fun, what it does is it give you that old school film approach to digital photography on your iPhone with a bunch of different lenses and flashes and films. The only thing that I didn't like about the app but smart on their side is that when you buy it (1.99) you get three basic films and lenses and one flash. After that you can go to their store and buy the additional lenses and flashes and films. They come as a set so you spend about and extra three to four dollars to get everything. It's totally worth it though and very addicting.
With all that being said I decided to take on a random things project with my iPhone and the different photography apps that I have (hipstamatic and best camera). As I go through and take pics and I get ones that I like I am going to plop them here on the blog and on to my Facebook account for people to check out and tell me what they think.
Have a great weekend and I will see you guys back here on Monday, possibly Tuesday.

To Ipad or Not to Ipad
Yesterday Apple announced their newest innovation the "Ipad"(love the name by the way) this device in my opinion is amazing. I have always wanted a device that was a little bigger then my Iphone to do the things that I want to do on a larger scale yet very portable.
This device will not replace my iphone nor will it replace my laptop. It will fill that gap in between. I will use it as a device that allows me to keep track of appointments whether they be photo shoots, design deadlines or remembering my anniversary (yes you can do that with ical and the iphone, but the calendar on this one is way cooler). Not to mention the books, movies, internet surfing, and other activities that I do that ipad supports.
But the biggest thing that I am looking at it for is for its photo sharing abilities. Yes that is right it's photo sharing abilities. I want to use this as a medium to take to my clients and put it in their hands and have them be able to look through the albums of the work that we have done to help decided whether or not they should choose me as there photographer.
So I am going to pose a question, If you were looking at me as a photographer and I gave you this device to look over my work instead of an album of prints what would you think? Good, Bad, don't care, this is kind of cool? Let me know your thoughts on this, please share.
