Mike, Ally, and me
Photo by Tamera Goldsmith
Red Rock Canyon Open Space

November 23, 2008
As I mentioned a couple weeks ago, my friend Tamera and I traded portrait sessions. You can see the photos I took of her and her boyfriend, Pat, HERE. I just realized that I never posted the ones she took of us!
Mike and I live really close to Red Rock Canyon, and we go there many times a week to hike with the dog. It has become a special place for the three of us, and I now consider hiking there to be my favorite thing to do in my free time. I’m really excited to have photos of us in our favorite spot.
Thank you so much, Tamera!
This one is the cover of our Christmas card this year. 
When we first adopted Ally, she was afraid of heights. Now she is an enthusiastic rock climber.
Finally Mike snapped a picture of Tamera and me.

Wow, she took some pictures of you two! =)
AH ha, THAT’S where the gorgeous new photo of you came from! Love them. And what a great Christmas photo.
Love these!
I think number 4 is my fave – of your dog out front and you two holding hands. Sweet!
I’m gonna do this “trade gig” with photographer friends of mine!
Yep!
it’s so interesting to see pictures by others besides you and mike. there is most definitely a stylistic difference and i don’t even know anything about photography!
I especially love the first one behind the cut. You guys look great!

Aw thanks
Thanks! Those rock formations are fascinating. They used to lie flat and were covered by water, before the land dried up and the rocks shifted. You can see the swirling indents in the rocks that were caused by waves.
Re: Love these!
I love that one, too. Ally wouldn’t sit there for long, but thank goodness Tamera managed to capture it before the dog got restless.
You should definitely do a trade, too!
That’s nice of you, thank you!
Thanks! I keep considering cutting it all off, and then I change my mind. I’m not sure what to do with it at this point.
That’s very true. That’s why it’s important for people to choose a photographer based on artistic style rather than prices or products. Every photographer sees the world a bit differently.
Ha! Good, because I’m not really up for letting you pluck them out.
Thanks so much!
Thanks! That picture really captures us.
I love those rocks! There are tons of them in that canyon, and it’s great fun to jump around on them.
oh, hey, I’ve never noticed you had green in your eyes
