I’m trying to win a seat at a workshop given by the ah-mazing Julie Parker. Its a bit of a popularity contest, so I’m now appealing to all of my blog stalkers. 🙂 Would you go vote for me please? I’m about half-way down the list and voting ends on Saturday, Feb 5th. Thanks!! http://julieparkerphotography.blogspot.com/2011/01/vote-vote-vote.html

A few years ago I attended a workshop that gave me access to a private forum with photographers all over the country. It was my leaping point for photography and I’ve learned business, marketing, photo critiques, the works. Late last year, those on the forum decided it was time to hold our own workshop! We’d get together, […]

    Sounds like a fantastic event. To say I am jealous is an understatement! Congrats on having a fun outing, but more importantly a great network of fellow professionals with which to grow & share.

This was my super cute pre-Christmas wedding couple. Although it was cold outside, Tara was a trooper and their wedding day was fabulous! I took their family formals inside the Joseph Smith Memorial Bldg after everyone had warmed up with a little hot chocolate. Something I’ve never done before, but I love the way the […]

    So beautiful! So glad I got to second shoot with you, my favorite is the Christmas tree shot, I knew when you took it that it would be amazing!

  • Kylene Cleaver - January 28, 2011 - 10:12 am

    Oh Jess these are just lovely! I simply adore images at the Salt Lake temple. One day soon I will have to come out and second shoot with you 🙂

  • Karen Bourne - January 28, 2011 - 7:02 am

    The pictures are all beautiful. I really like the one of them on the couch sans hot chocolate (the hot chocolate one is cute, too, but the other one is just so classic and beautiful). I also love her colors…so warm.

This is both good & bad as I’ve worked & met with some great clients, edited crazy amounts of photos, and been designing an overhaul of my business, yet had little time to update the bloggity-blog. Poor thing. Anyway, I’m off to good […]

The holidays are such a perfect time for a proposal. Now that things have settled a little, we’re all back to “real” life, I want to hear your story! And, to kick of the New Year, I thought I’d hold a promotion: January Wedding Promotion: If you book your wedding with Picture Me Mine before […]

The in-laws have left, daddy went back to work, so I guess its back to “real” life. I’m not ready. I really could take next week off and just lounge around in my pajamas. 🙂 I loved Christmas this year. Our Christmas season included cookie making, player piano caroling, relaxing at a cabin, snowmobiling, shopping […]
