I was going through my pics from this year, and ran into a little series of refection shots of me and some friends. Thought I would post a few just for fun :)

8/21/06 Heidi (Anglesey on iStock) called me up today and asked me to go for a drive with her to look at a cool spot for taking photos. So while we were driving, I could tell Heidi was a little anxious, lol. I wasnt sure what was going on, but I knew something was up! So we pulled up to a building, and she says wait here... and then went upstairs to grab something. Then we went downstairs and she opened the door to an empty studio space. She says its ours if we want it!! I couldnt believe it!! OMG... I think I am still in shock... we will be opening our very first portrait studio in down town SLC, Utah! We hope to have it up and running by the 1st of September... I will post some pics as our studio develops.

This is part of our new studio space. We worked
on it from about 9 am until about 9:30 pm today. It only shows a corner of the space to the left, but I just wanted to show our nifty paint job.
It will be so much fun getting in some track lighting, prints and some lighting equipment!

We got a new lighting kit and tested it out on my little sister today. I posted an example pic on the right. Tomorrow is the big day to start moving stuff into the studio! We are so excited, but still have sooo much stuff to buy and do.

We spent another 6 hours today painting, cleaning and moving some stuff into the studio. We decided to go with black instead of green. We are both ending up sacrificing items from our own homes, lol. I think it is coming along beautifully!

The lights are in the studio, and we tested them out today! YAY! I am starting to look into backdrops and props.... they cost so much freaking money, so I am also looking into making my own. We will see. I know I could make some cool stuff, its just a matter of finding the right materials.
Today we played around with the lights in the studio a little more. I also tried making my own archway prop, lol. I plan on getting some fake vines and wrapping them around it. I just happened to have a friend that works for a foam recycling company and I can get as much as I want.
