Libby and Joe: Sneak Peek!

I shot Libby and Joe’s engagement session a few days ago and I haven’t had time to edit them all for a proper blog post. So….I have this one awesome shot to hold you all over.

P.S. I’m driving to LA tomorrow and I’ll be there for 3 weeks. If anyone is looking ahead for a Spring photo session in Utah, I will be back the last weekend of March (and possibly into the first week of April) and also near the end of April. Don’t let this whole 2-city thing scare you ;) I’m very flexible in my scheduling and as long as I can get 2-3 shoots in a weekend, I’ll come up. Be looking at your calendars so that I can fit you in :)

Jeanette’s Vegan Cookies

I don’t actually know the real name to these cookies because I got this recipe from my friend Jeanette way back in high school and I’ve just always called them ‘Jnet’s Vegan Cookies’.

But, if you are craving a healthy, delicious snack, then you should try these! They are seriously addicting and I can’t get enough of them.
I actually made them for my drive back to LA tomorrow. It’s going to be a fun drive ;)

1/2 T canola oil
1 1/2 T warm water
3/4 c brown sugar
1/2 c white sugar
1 well smashed banana (ripe)
1 t vanilla
1 1/2 c flour
1 t baking soda
1 t cinnamon
3 c quaker oats

Heat oven to 375.
Mix ingredients in order (I mix every time I add in something new).
Use ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake 6-9 minutes until it’s starting to turn a light brown.
Cool 1 minute on baking sheet & then move onto cooling rack.
Store slightly covered.

Hope you enjoy!

Amanda and Jason

Amanda and Jason went up to Park City during the Sundance Film Festival last year for their third date.
We thought it was a fitting place for their engagement session. It was only 20 degrees outside when we began the shoot. Poor Amanda was freezing, but man did she look gorgeous and stylish! I love her polka dot skirt and red heels. Luckily the sun was out, so it made it a little more bearable (at least I thought it did).

Congratulations on your engagement!

New Music: Bon Iver

I recently came upon the song Blindsided by Bon Iver.

The more I listen to it, the more I want to play it.
I love the simple guitar melody, almost haunting in its beauty.
It has a melancholy to it that is palpable and intense, quickly immersing me into a state of deep thought & contemplation.
This is the song I share with you on this Sunday night.
