It appears that the last shreds of summer are quickly turning into chilly evenings and painted leaves... Fall is quite beautiful out here in good 'ol Utah, it's a shame we don't have more than 2 weeks of it :) You can almost smell the frost thinking about settling over the valley. In lieu of shorter days and snow covered mountains, I am scrambling to fit in any portrait work that needs to be done before we have to bust out snow shoes to get around. Typically the blanket of winter lulls my photography company away from portrait and wedding work; however, I have a feeling this winter I might see more bookings than last winter. Even though outdoor photography will see a sharp decline (sans landscape/skiing shots) I am thoroughly looking forward to exploring the unique architecture that surrounds SLC. Admittedly I normally steer towards the great outdoors for portrait work, but this year, I am actually excited to be forced to manipulate creative lighting within Utah's ever present dichotomy of interests which seems to integrate itself into the physical structures themselves here (maybe more so than other cities?).
Anyway, rather than rambling on and on... because this post seems like it has the potential to do that... I say, enjoy what warm weather is left! Get out and play in the leaves- rake a big pile then throw it around! Carve some pumpkins! Remember what fall felt like when you were a little kid? Take some time to slow down, put away your to do list, ignore gas prices, and have a fall play day!
