I am back !!!

Hey !!! I am BACK !!!!. It took me a little while to catch up most of my work (and even now, I am not done yet, but I could not wait any longer).

The trip to New York City and Washington DC was super amazing... especially because I saw my sister Danella, Ervic and their family and one of my brothers, Alonso.
I know that time flies and probably I won't be able to tell you all my experiences while I was there, but I think it's enough to say that I couldn't ask for better hosts, my siblings are the best in the entire world!!. I love them a lot... to all of them!!

Now that I am back, I can do, once more, my job... taking photographs!!! Capturing important moments in the life of my customers!! I feel super blessed to become an important part in the life of my friends (regularly called "customers"). This is the case of this family that I took photographs yesterday; this is a beautiful couple that I did take their wedding day about 1 year and a half (including Bridals, Engagements, Family session (twice) and more). Yesterday I took photographs of their first baby girl: Hallie. It was a great experience for me... Thanks Jeremy and Rachell, I had a really good time.









The day before (the 18th of March) I went out and took some photographs to a almost married couple: an engagement session in the mountains. Burkell and Curt did a great job hiking and walking and hugging and kissing (which are important parts in my engagement sessions). We went into several locations around some mountains close to my studio; and we had a great time as well.







Well, I will be posting some of the photographs of my trip to the U.S. east coast little by little, but now I will post some of the photographs that I took yesterday and the day before. I hope you enjoyed them.

Take care you all, and send me some comments. Bye, bye.

A new day in the east !

Hello to everybody. It's great to have computer access again. Though, I won't be able to write for long, since I have come to a different area... as a matter of fact I'm no longer in New York City but in Washington DC. I arrived yesterday night.

We are design to go out and visit the most "historical areas" (the National Mall) in the next 15 minutes, so in the mean time I want to upload some of the last images I took in the Manhattan area in NY.
















I hope you love them as much as I do.

See ya later!.

From New York City with Love

Well, here I am again, and this time from the heart of New York !!, well, Actually I am residing in New Jersey, a bout 1 hour from New York City. As a matter of fact I already went two times to the "big apple" and spend some quality time with my camera... am I in Love or what?. Well, I have to confess that I love my camera A LOT!!.

Passing to a more adult-ish conversation, I want to tell you that I am having a blast here in the east of USA, and though I am most of the time away from a computer, I could have access to one and that's why I am going to add at least one image. I hope you like it.

Another thing I want to mention is that New York City is impressive... and I like it !. Though, as much as I liked it, and the possibilities are (probably) bigger around here, I still love my dear calm and tranquil Utah... probably because the moutains and its people.

Well, I leave you now with this image that I took one of these nights while I was hiking in the New Jersey border of the Hudson river, having a nice look of the Manhattan island. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.


Take care and I will write you again soon.

I'm going to New York !!!

Well, that's the truth... I am going to New York City !!! and I am SOOOO excited !!. I'm going to see Danellita & Ervic, my sister, her husband and their family and staying in New Jersey for a week, and then I'm going to visit my brother Alonso in Washington D.C. and stay with him for 4 days... I think is going to be phenomenal !!!

Sadly I am traveling by myself, since this trip is not for just pleasure but for business (70% of it). My wife and kids will have the chance sooner than they expect to go to New York City and see their cousins and family.

The business that I am going for is really interesting, I am adding a new line of service to all my wedding customers (and others that may be interested as well), by bringing some specialties for Kitchens for brand new couples homes (and for the families and guesses who want to give some gifts to the new couples). This new line is a TOP of the LINE kitchen equipment, that are not just beautiful looking, but long lasting and super high quality products.

Well, enough with advertising... I am going to NEW YORK CITY !!!! can you imaging? the dream of all my life as a photographer !!!. I'll bring some hundreds of photographs of my entire trip. As a matter of fact, I think I will have to post them in several different posts... well, we will see. I won't have a computer with Internet access, so I think I won't be able to post anything while I'm there, but I'll have my phone with me so my family and any of my friends, (all my customers) want to call me while there).

Now, I am adding some photographs from Ogden city, that I took some days or weeks ago. These photographs are part of a self-project about the "still standing" old structures in my home town: Ogden. Enjoy them and comment on them as well.

Well... this image is the Municipal cementery in Ogden (obviously enough). Though the interesting point that I am making in this photograph is the age of these small edifications... probably the oldest in the whole Ogden area... even older than any other building around.

This building is the first LDS chapel constructed in Ogden; I believe was erected back in 1910 or so... and as a matter of fact this building is 100% functional, serving for 3 different wards and LDS branches.

This is the Saint Joseph Catholic Church in downtown Ogden in a cloudy day after a snow storm. Again, this building was erected back in 1910's or so and is fully operational. And this building is one of my most popular areas where I go to take wedding photographs, since there are more than a few weddings there in the summer.


This building has being constructed (I believe) back in the later part of 1800's and currently serves as the Municipal building for Ogden City, where the mayor's office is. As a matter of fact, my studio is exactly in front of this marvelous construction... in front of the mayor avenue in Ogden, the Washington Boulevard. This photograph was taken during a snow falling afternoon.

I hope you enjoyed them; comment on them and tell me what do you think as well.

See ya !!.
