My favorite holiday!

Christmas may seem forever away, but planning for your Christmas cards should start early. The earlier you start the more likely chance you'll be able to be booked with the photographer you want, have enough time to get a really great picture, and be able to print all the pictures/cards you need. I know it's not even October, but if you'd like to set an appointment with me for Christmas pictures, you can leave a message, use the appointment app to the right of this post, or email me at burnedimagesphotography(at)yahoo(dot)com.

the hubster

I'm trying to train my second shooter :)
BTW, these are all his!

Way to go Mikey!

who wants free stuff?

I'm giving away a free print! When I reach 200 facebook fans, I will have a drawing to pick the lucky winner. I will select 5 pictures from which the winner may choose. You can become a fan HERE!

sunset

Not to be partial, but Idaho and the coast of North Carolina have produced some of the most majestic sunsets I've ever seen. I'm so glad I was able to get off work a little early tonight so that I got to see this:

Our stake center.

The Teton Mountains

bear world

If you are ever in the Idaho Falls/Rexburg area, you MUST see Bear World. It's punishable by law if you don't...ok, it's not, but it should be! You can either take your own car through the park or ride on a open truck. If you ride the truck, you get to feed the animals and they come right up to the truck. If you're in your car, for the most part, they don't bother you. Either way, it's an unique experience.

Black Bear

S/He's begging for food.

For an extra fee you can bottle feed the cubs

They have a petting zoo with goats, peacocks and peahens, deer, and geese.

White Elk

Grizzly Bear

ririe

I took a ride with a lady I know through the town she lives in. There are so many interesting and old buildings there!

This was an old house we drove by.

Another old home. We suspect the house was built in 1910.

This landscaping is in front of the last house, just a couple
pictures down in the post.

The family that lives in this house has spent the last 10 years
restoring it. Not the iron work around the balcony...

The mom created the ironwork in the previous
picture from pieces that started out like this.
She blasted it, welded it together, then painted
it until she got the results in the previous picture.

the G's

I've met some pretty awesome people while living in Idaho, but the G's are some of the best! They're leaving soon and I had the privilege of taking some pictures for them.
