RaShea Jenkins Photography

So, first of all, I've changed my blog, it's now at sheadaisy.wordpress.com for those that want to know. I post a lot of sneak peeks, so it will have more updated photos than this site does.

So, that's change number 1. Change number 2 is still in the works, I am getting a much better website (huzzah!). The web address will be sheadaisyphoto.com. You can actually check it out right now if you want, but the homepage is the only thing that's done so far, so none of the links at the top of the page will work. Pretty awesome so far though, right?

(P.S. input, whether positive or negative, is always appreciated).

Change number 3, I'm moving back to Sandy soon! I currently live out in Magna, and although I don't mind living in Magna, I hate the commute to work and school. I'd like to minimize driving because, let's face it, Utah has some crazy drivers. I'm no saint, but I don't go 80 through a 55 construction zone weaving in and out of lanes either :P.

If you like what you've seen, definitely follow my blog, I'm working on a project that will be different from my usual, but very cool!

So last night my family celebrated my niece's 14th birthday at my parent's house. I love my niece, she's kinda funky and funny and is my overall buddy. It was a fun day, what with it being unbearably hot one moment and raining and windy the next (we had the party outside, forgot to mention that). But after the few minutes of rain and wind, the weather cooperated with our celebrating. I gave my niece a t-shirt from her favorite show, and made lime rickeys (which I now feel quite proficient at doing I might add ;).

It was good to visit with my family, it's rare that we get everyone together (we were still missing a few members this time), but it's always much more fun with my brothers' joking and my sisters' sarcastic remarks, not to mention the great food everyone brings. Pretty sure the lime rickey was everyone's favorite today though... (wishful thinking much?)

I think the icing on the cake was when my husband and I were on our way back home, we stopped at the Great Saltair to see the sunset. Luckily I had my camera and tripod with me, and also an old school all manual film camera for my husband. We're going to get his film developed asap. But it was an amazing sight, to be sure. If anyone needs a good place for a date, think, or pretty much whatever, go to the Saltair just before sunset. Take your camera and make your friends jealous too ;)

I've always loved photography, and I'm so happy that it's still a huge part of my life. The greatest thing now though, is that I get to share it.  There's something about catching that moment between an engaged couple, where they're so excited and in love with each other. Then there's bridals, where the bride gets to be a princess full of grace and lightheartedness. Then, at last, there's the wedding day, where both bride and groom are filled with a happiness and excitement for their new life together. And I feel so lucky to spy in on that and capture it for the couple to cherish for the rest of their lives.

I just thought I'd post a little more on this site in case people want to get to know me a little better.

What a crazy summer it's been. I was lucky enough to get married myself on June 12 (thank goodness it hardly rained during the day!) and now I sympathize with every other stressed bride out there. It's tough! But in the end it's all worth it., I promise.

I've been swamped every since I came back home, so if you call me or send me an e-mail and I don't get back to you right away, I'm just a bit busy getting a bunch of portraits and engagement sessions going. But don't worry, I'll get to you as soon as I can (usually within a couple days).
