Greenhouse Portrait Session with Brigitte Biber

"It was only a couple of years ago that I connected with Morigan, the goddess of art and other things. The raven tattoo shows my gratitude for her. Ravens are magical beings, protectors. I was bouncing around religions. Raised Catholic, checked LDS. But I kept coming back to Wiccan. The concepts that you are responsible for your own doing, you can create your own future, living in harmony with nature, you do not bow your gods because they walk beside you and guide you--really attracted me to it. Spend every day of life enjoying each moment. Soak it all in. Try not to get too frustrated in the little things, and remember that everyone struggles. Just a smile can make someone's day." -Brigitte Biber @brigitte_model

The Lonely Flower, with Kollene Snow | Salt Lake Conceptual Portrait Photographer

I wanted this photo shoot with Kollene Snow to illustrate that idea. Like a lonely flower that blooms, sometimes unexpected ideas lead the way to the next one.

I am no bird | salt lake city utah conceptual portrait photographer

Model: Jesyka Dereta Makeup & Styling: Jesyka Dereta Wardrobe, Prop & Calligraphy: Wendy Hurst Photography: Wendy Hurst Portrait Sometimes when I don't know something, like what to call an image or series, I identify what it's not. Doing so lends inspiration and actually yields titles that resonate with me most often. For this reason a quote from Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte recently stuck in my mind. "I am no bird; no net ensnares me." I also remembered a behind the scenes YouTube video by fashion photographer Joan Allen that I found by accident years ago of a shoot using calligraphy on the skin to add a dimension of edgy elegance. Combine that with a kick I've been on about oversized objects and I knew what I wanted to do. Months ago I draped my dress form, Maggie, with yards of purple cloth I picked up secondhand for a different photo shoot. The shoot turned out okay but didn't fully captured the potential I saw in that &quo
