We recently adopted a puppy from the humane society – her name is Luna. As far as we know, she is a Weimereiner/Labrador mix. She is definitely cute! Our Labrador Sage is starting to get along with her now too.

I met Megan and Mike for their engagement session at their home up in the Avenues neighborhood of Salt Lake City. They live right near City Creek Canyon, where they often take their dog Lady for walks in the woods. It was on one of these walks that Mike proposed to Megan so it was a great choice of location for some photos. Lady was not interested in sitting still for pictures that evening!
Megan and Mike are friends of ours – Megan works with my wife Leah and Mike is now essential to the functioning of Michael Tallman Photography. Without him, I would still have a pile of paperwork on my table and no photographs would be coming out of this computer! Mike does a great job on my very complicated tax returns.
Megan and Mike are having their wedding in May at Log Haven. Family and friends can see the rest of these photos and order prints here.

I photographed the Donnellys again this past fall at their home in Sugarhouse. I had a session with Claire, Ryan, Michael and Drew a year ago as well. It is really fun to see these boys growing up!
Drew looks especially pleased with himself for dumping leaves on his older brother Michael:

Our friends Kate and Kyle just had a baby girl, Anna. It took Anna a little while to open her eyes, but once she did she stayed awake the whole time.
Anna even modeled the hat that Leah (my wife) knit for her. Leah is thinking about quitting medicine to knit full time. What do you think?
Congratulations to Kate, Kyle and Anna! Prints are available here.

Lauren and Greg are our next door neighbors and good friends. We couldn’t have picked better next door neighbors, and we got to know them quickly thanks to our dogs – Sage and their dog Chewey are best friends. Leah and I have had many impromptu dinners together with Lauren and Greg due to how close our 191Xs era bungalows are. If Greg has a tasty leg of lamb on the grill, I can smell it from my front porch. We’ve got each other’s keys in case either of us run out of toilet paper or eggs. I don’t think we would know them as well if we were living in the type of houses that are being built today.
Lauren and Greg needed an announcement picture so I offered to do one for them if they would be patient enough while I fiddled with some new lighting setups. I would much rather find good light than make it myself but I am always trying to add options. We took these pictures half way up Little Cottonwood Canyon at dusk. Lauren and Greg are getting married this September. I’m totally bummed that I won’t be around for their wedding, because I have another one to photograph!
The picture below is Lauren and Greg and another friend Rick skinning up the ridge to Silver Fork Bowl, in between Big and Little Cottonwood Canyons. This was taken on one of the rare sunny days during our winter long snowstorm. I think we left the house at about 10 AM that morning – life is tough in Salt Lake City!
