Several months ago, Kelton saw Shawn up on the stand at church in a suit and with a beard. He said “Dude, your bro just needs a top hat and he’s Abe Lincoln”. So Shawn decided to be Abe for Halloween this year. The costume was too good to not do a quick photoshoot. I…

I forgot that I had these paper mache theater-type masks that I bought a few months ago for a photo idea. I remembered them and today and thought perhaps I’d use them for Halloween… so instead of people taking turns going to the door every time kids came, I donned the hooded robe with this…

I wrote a post the other day and didn’t post it, doh. Kato and I did some driving around today because the weather was perfect (partly cloudy and about 80) and the fall colors will likely disappear soon. This one was from up just south of Milcreek Canyon– we were just kind of wandering through…

Parking lot at work… September 17, 2009 – 8:03pm 35mm – f/7 – ISO 100 for 5 seconds. I had just missed the sunset this evening, but I had my camera so I decided to capture what was left of it, first by pointing the camera towards the west. Much more interesting, though, was when…

beach @ Capitola, Santa Cruz — July 31, 2009. The fun part about photographing this was that this was the first time Dan had been to the beach since we were kids (I was probably 12 or 13 when we went on those family trips to Laguna Beach, which means Dan was probably 10 at…

I like how this came out sorta portrait-like. Another shot from Lane & Kim’s wedding day– I love having excuses to be camera happy. 😉

I took these at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building downtown before and during Land & Kim’s wedding luncheon. Look at this first shot— Addie totally posed for it. It makes me wonder how it affects kids today to be in front of the camera so much. I mean from day one she’s had adoring parents,…

My cousin Lane got married one week ago on August 20, 2009, and I just wanted to congratulate him, along with his bride Kimberly. Lots more photos to polish and post later, but I loved how this one turned out, so I thought I’d post it. I watched as the hired photographer snapped away with…

Been editing a zillion photos from a wedding Kato and I shot a while back (yes, we’re amateurs, and yes, we’re insane), took a break to monkey with some textures and what not in photoshop. =D

At lunch @ Capitola.

This was an exercise in salvaging an uninteresting photo to try to add some interest. Not amazing, but better than it was before 😉 I scanned back through the last year’s worth of blog entries the other day and realized that, for a change of pace, I was actually pretty good about posting semi-frequently, even…

Alright, I had to post these before March is too far gone. Sunday morning I shaved my beard into a foo and wore it to church. Talk about setting your dignity aside, hah. I was sitting up at the sacrament table, and Dan-o was on the bench in front of me (facing me) to pass…

Just a couple pics from a bit over a week ago when three of the Sloan bros had security duty at the Draper Temple dedication. (Just some quick and dirty tweaking of this “portrait” of Shawn… I like how it turned out).

I dug up this picture the other day to show a friend how pretty Havasupai is. This is from a backpacking trip in September of 2006. It was interesting to see pictures of myself from that time… and sort of contrast where I was then to where I am now– two different places, I think.…
