after a morning of camera talk....good stuff....we went on an adventure.
we rode a ski lift up to the top of the mountain (i think we were in deer valley...) and took pictures.
hysterical isn't it???
wendy is rad.
i call this "meg in the mountains"
:)
tyler and wendy rented a canoe for our mountain photo session....it was a wild ride up to the lake.
and when we got up there....MOOSE!
whoa.
so cool.
don't see that in kansas!
this was our destination..........
anna and dave have been married for three weeks.
they were GREAT sports...13 photographers shouting out "look here!" "touch his arm!" "KISS!"
and just for fun i thought you'd like to see a little behind-the-scenes....
HA.
i am having an AWESOME time.
for real.
surrounded by super sweet photographers who want to learn like me is such a cool place to be.
and this house is crazy amazing!
i feel spoiled.
big time.
more to come.......
What gorgeous scenery!
I like 'Meg in the Mountains'!
Moosen! - Have you ever heard Brian Regan's bit on that? My son do him is even funnier!
Have fun & learn lots!!

Great photos of beautiful places! I especially love the birch trees in the ski lift photo - remind me of northern Minnesota and Michigan.

When we did our tour of New England a couple months back, we were on constant lookout for Moose. There are signs on the highways everywhere(so different from New York State where the worst you have to watch out for are deer or cow crossings(or of course snow mobiles, hah!). LOVE that you actually saw some!
Im so glad to hear youre having a wonderful time!

I do believe team blue Lilly are the coolest people I've ever met. Tell them bonjour from the Rice's in Paris!!!

Aww, you are making me so homesick! I grew up in the Utah mountains, seeing stuff like that in my backyard, practically. (Moose, elk, deer, coyotes...) Now I am living in the flat midwest. Love the trees, but miss the mountains! Enjoy that cool mountain air for me.

I am jealous of you.. had Blue Lily do our photos and just got them back this week. I LOVE THEM. I am saving my pennies to go to a GO PRO in 2012. And from your pics (both times you have hung with them) I am so staying in the party house.

I'm crazy jealous about your location . . . every where you turn in Utah you see a pictureperfect landscape to shoot pics of. Deer Valley is beautiful. How i miss that state!! So glad you are enjoying it.

Weird engagement photos is RIGHT! I admire people for stepping outside of the box...but that is a BIG step!
I love your outfits! You always inspire me on things to wear! Great blog!

Meg...these are gorgeous. You inspire me to challenge myself to grow as a photographer...Blue Lily one day?

What program do you use for editing? How do you get the dark-ish edges that seem to make your subject "pop"???
Posted by: Melissa | August 29, 2011 at 01:03 PM
