Just in case you've been wondering what I've been up to, head over to the Client Blog.
This image, and many more to come, were a request from someone who is familiar with my work who wanted pictures of her grandmother in the style of my unmadeup project. I was more than happy to fill that request!

within walking distance: LDS conference center

Hopefully this picture shows, even just a little, what an AMAZING building this is. Regardless of your personal religious level or affiliation, the architecture not only ROCKS but it is a great tribute to the faith of those who gather there.

p.s. this is the first picture T told me was quote "really cool." He wants to print it and put it up in the house. Hooray! (I feel the same. I LOVE this picture. Probably my favorite from the series so far).

within walking distance: new favorite place

W has a new friend. His mom and I have started walking together a few days a week. I can't get enough of this picture. I think I am going to do some fun things with it and put it up in the house.

This is all beside the point. I have a NEW favorite place. It has views like THIS:



and THIS:



And on the walk home I get to see THIS:



In case you were wondering, I LOVE Salt Lake City!

within walking distance: texture and color, oh my!

I LOVE this picture. Totally worth backtracking to get it.

as a side note, I'm really glad we don't live in a building that has shower tile on the outside. Its a little tacky.

within walking distance: enabling imagination

I know I already did a post about the Salt Lake City Main Library being within walking distance (it still is, though farther away), this is my FAVORITE place INSIDE the library (and W's too). Its in the children's area, and it has a skylight (so, the most BEEEEAUTIFUL light). It is a magical place. I hope someday we have an attic that is just as much fun!

within walking distance: masonic temple

Back in the DC area, there is a BEAUTIFUL masonic temple in old town Alexandria. It is a landmark that I was used to seeing regularly. I didn't realize how much I missed it until I started walking by the one here in SLC regularly. Though, I will say, the sphinx-y guys in the front remind me of a certain statue in Gilgal Garden.

within walking distance: eagle gate

Did you know that this gate (which is over State Street at South Temple) was originally made of wood and was atop a wall around Brigham Young's property? I think it is pretty cool. Glad I took the time to actually LOOK at it.
