Family Portraits at the Bonneville Salt Flats



In May, we went out to the famous Bonneville Salt Flats with some friends and did a family portrait session. Here are our favorites from our family. Rhett did such a great job but we didn't anticipate the salt to be SOOOOO pastey and sticky. It was like scraping off bad decorators icing once it dried. But we all had a good time.









This one I am printing on a Gallery Wrap type canvas at about 30" wide by 20" high to hang in our house on the main floor. We did a huge long cool portrait print that we hang in the family room in the basement a couple of years ago. But I decided we needed a bigger one of us (besides the 8x10 on the shelf) on the main floor so everyone can see what an awesome photographer my husband is.

So cool! And what a great idea to go "on location". The light looks perfect too.

I love your family pictures! We need new ones desperately and we're doing it this fall-no more excuses! I agree, your location choice was amazing! Btw, hope you don't mind that I hopped onto your blog!
