I believe I can Fly...

(Yes, I flew southwest... and yes, I take pictures on planes) 


Well, in the last few weeks, I have gotten the opportunity to travel a little bit. It has been really nice to get out of provo and see things "outside the bubble". Its good to get some perspective on life. 

Well, my first trip was to Oklahoma to see my sister graduate (see below). This was a lot of fun. It was great to see family. I dont get too many opportunities to see than often. I have been so blessed to have such a wonderful family! I love them!  

Here are a few pictures of what Oklahoma looks like... not that we will be there too long. My parents are moving down to Texas in a few weeks! 

This was a house, I mean someone lived there and collects these huge signs.... 


Dont blink- you will miss the thriving metropolis of Pawhuska! 


Downtown! 


There are some stretches of road where you can look out and literally not see anything man made... this picture you can- but it is few and far between. 


Prairie Dogs! If you look close you can see about 14 of them peeking out of their wholes! 




There was a second trip I got to go on this last weekend. This one was to Seattle Washington. I was going out there to shadow a professional photographer, Kelly Chandler, (http://www.kellychandler.com/blog/). She has amazing pictures and I really love her work. I got to know her through Natania and Brady Quist. She was their wedding photographer.  

She was great enough to let me fly out and work with her for Mike and Elizabeth Bergs Wedding. There are a few pictures on her blog about it (as seen above)- go check it out. I mean really... go now- and look! It was a beautiful and busy weekend! 

I would have been so lost without a GPS! Thank Parents for letting me borrow it for the weekend! 


This is my rental car.... Kinda sweet huh? 


This is the ferry... 


Me on the Ferry


Natania's BACKYARD....  growing up in Farmington NM, we did NOT get views like this! 

Mount Rainier- from the plane


This was flying back into utah... 




I truly felt like an independent adult! Getting on a plane, flying into Seattle, getting a rental car, driving to the ferry, going back into downtown Seattle to shoot a wedding, did not get lost once, arranging where to sleep and live, etc.... It was great!
