Kelly & Jason

On the 28th day of September I was given the pleasure of photographing Kelly and Jason Salt Lake City Wedding.  What a happy day!

 

St. Peter & Paul Orthodox Church

With my recent find of the Cathedral of the Madeleine, I started out on an adventure to uncover other religious treasures located in Salt Lake City. Just 3 blocks South East of the epicenter of downtown is a small hidden masterpiece. Walking through the doors of the chapel you come across a painted blue sky surround with beautiful icons reminiscent of the byzantine era.

Cathedral's South Facade

Mesmerized by the interior of the Cathedral of the Madeleine,  I went back for a second trip to photograph the beautiful details laid in stone. Above the main door of the Cathedral lays a intricate facade. It amazes me that there is such talent that can carve this massive art by hand.

The Cathedral of the Madeleine

  

Located in downtown Salt Lake is a stone Cathedral with massive gargoyles. When one walks through the doors they stumble across an overlooked treasure in the community. The interior is exquisitely painted with rich colors and massive murals.

One Image...or Three

Oh the art of Architectural Photography. This one image of the Exterior of a House is actually 3 images. The first for the exposure of the house, second the exposure for the interior lights of the house and third the exposure of the sky. A lot more work than you would think!

Tower

I went up to Salt Lake to photography the Galvin Ice Arena. I've heard about this arena for a while but never have seen it. When I went to photograph, I came to the realization that the arena was a lot smaller than I anticipated and at the time it was way too busy. So as photographers must always be, I had to be flexible and decided to get a few night shows of the federal building's clock tower.
