Movement study: portrait and dance photography.

Carter reached out to me several years ago about doing a photo shoot... but the timing wasn't right but we finally got the stars to align in May of 2024. Carter came from Nashville, Tennessee out to Utah

A group of youth aerialists were in Utah for "Aerialympics", an aerial arts competition run by a local aerial gym, and they wanted to do an outdoor photo shoot since they're from Florida and

A FOLLOW UP TO THIS POST WITH MORE PHOTOS... In that last post, I shared photos of AliceNicole during sunset and blue hour, and one with the stars, but for this one, I've got some photos of her dancing

Kaia was one of the dancers in a large group shoot from September 2022. Not much of a story for this shoot other than it was an amazing night, with some incredibly talented dancers, so let's cut to the

A few weeks back I shared this post about Ashley, well the other dancer for that shoot was Sarah, who came from Seattle. Sarah initially reached out to me in 2017 when she was living on Hawaii teaching

Ashley traveled from Chicago to Utah to come dance with the stars She flew in on the Saturday that we were supposed to shoot but her flight was delayed 3 times throughout the day and she didn't arrive

August and September 2022 was a busy summer for my Dancing with the Stars series. It started out with Autumn at the Spiral Jetty. We had a rainstorm come through the day before and the day of this shoot

Remember my scouting trip from last May? Well, it was to find a location to do aerial photos in the summer or fall. I didn't get a chance to make it up there again in the summer, as most aerialists wanted

Let's start off with a photo, but follow along for the story... A few weeks after my dance shoot with Kara and Estee I was itching to get back out and photograph a dancer out at the Spiral Jetty in Utah,

I made an earlier post about a photo shoot with my friend Kara at the Great Salt Lake last summer, well this part 2 with photos of the other dancer, Estee. These were shot natural light during blue hour

You may have thought I had fallen off the face of the earth... since I haven't posted anything since August, but it turns out I've been really, really busy with work, photoshoots, travel with family, some

DANCING ON CLOUDS A few weeks back another photographer and I were talking about getting together to do a small group dance shoot, then a week later he put it together. He had one dancer lined up and 3

I meant to post this set earlier in the week but I've had nearly no time to put it together. It's a follow up to this post and also this post about my sunset and stars photo shoots with two dancers both

I know, I know, this is the same title as the last post just spelled differently but guess what? I shot with two Summer/Somer's at the same shoot, and believe me it was confusing as all get out. I have

The same night that I did the photo shoot with Kara (post here) she had her friend Asher, who I've shot with before, come along for some photos as well. Funny story is that Asher was coming alone a bit

Don't hide the real you behind clouds of darkness; let your light shine as brightly as the star you are inside! Here's a few photos after the stars came out and the clouds cleared for my shoot with Somer.

Back in September I did a pole photo shoot with local studio owner, Somer Ahonen (get it, Somer Sunsets??). We shot during one of the best sunsets I'd seen all year, then late into the night for some Dancing
