I don’t know about other people but leaving a house is hard for me. When Trent and I were first married he wanted to move into a 2 bedroom from a 1 bedroom apartment and I didn’t want to because I had just finished making the one we lived in our home and I felt […]

When we shot these photos it was the rehearsal night for the Mesa Temple Easter Pageant Jesus the Christ. There were lots of people dressed in costumes rushing back and forth from the parking lot area to the huge lawn area out front. At one point a small heard of Roman Soldiers walked past and […]
