Fall Fashion
“2013, American Fork, Utah. My mother in law wanted a huge family photo. For some reason she put us all in ugly bright colored sweaters in the middle of the summer (90 something degrees) and wanted us all to stand in random spots on the steps and smile. I was on camera duty and so I pushed the timer and hauled it back to my spot but wiped out just as the photo was snapped.”

Vision Quest
“I was recently looking through my parents old wedding album, and I found this gem. My mom said it was the thing to do back then, but I’m not so sure. I am surprised that this type of editing worked so well back then. My mom showed my dad, and his response was ‘That was one of my favorites. You looked beautiful. And you really are always on my mind.'”
