More Edinburgh...

Here are a few more pictures from the past few days. We're sad that our time in Edinburgh is almost done, because it has gone by so fast! But we're excited for all of the other places we get to visit too. Please excuse the not so pro picture editing, I just wanted to get a few more up.














This is Todd and I at the top of Arthur's Seat, the volcano that Edinburgh is built around. The hike was quite a feat for me!! Sorry you can't see the city ver well in the background, but it was BEAUTIFUL!!!














Yesterday as Todd and I were leaving our sweet hostel, we came out to find a full on Bagpipe Band and all these soldiers outside on the street! It was a very exciting morning for us.














The neighborhoods here are so adorable!
























The is the interior of St. Mary's Cathedral. The churches here are AMAZING!

Edinburgh

























Well, so far Edinburgh has proved to be one amazing city. Todd and I have been able to walk a lot and see so many beautiful things. I have only been shooting with film so far, but here are some pictures Todd has taken with our other camera...

Tom Riddle's Headstone- Yes Voldemort is real...
















Our home in Edinburgh, The castle rock hostel
















Our tour guide Ronnie
















The Edinburgh Castle from our hostel
















The windows above the word 'furniture' is the cafe where JK Rowling wrote Harry Potter. We ate there last night, and it was delicious! We'll definitely be going back.
















They have the most beautiful cemeteries here!
















Our first picture together in Scotland!
























This was a big find for us, seeing as I come from the Turnbull Clan. We'll be visiting the town they came from next week, so imagine our excitement when we saw this- across from Tom Riddle's Grave!
















I love their advertising here.
























More cemeteries- they seem to have a lot of leaning trees here as well.

We're here and it's cold!

Hi Friends, here's a quick update. Todd and I made it to Scotland yesterday, and man it is not the summer weather we wanted, but that's ok. Edinburgh is an amazing city, and we've only seen just a fraction of it! This morning we went jogging around the castle here, and although I only made it a mile (very sad, I know) the scenery is a definite improvement over 9000 south. I promise to post some pictures soon, and hope to keep a more detailed log of what we're up to.

Matt + Sayward























This past weekend I was able to take my brother's engagement photos. They were both great to work with, and it was a lot of fun to do! They are having a vintage theme for the wedding, so that's what we were aiming for with the pictures. Enjoy!

Antelope Island












































This past week I went to Antelope Island to help my friend Tempestt. It has been a really long time since I have been there, and I was pleasantly surprised! We even saw a buffalo right on the side of the road. These images were taken with my Ansco Shur Shot

The Barber Shop










































































































































 Last weekend I was roaming SL and came across this old barber shop, which actually isn't a barber shop at all anymore. The man in the photos is Ralph, and he is an artist that has created a while new world inside of these buildings. He was nice enough to show me around and let me take as many pictures as I wanted. I was able to learn a lot, and am proud that I have actually started incorporating people into my images!

SLC Half Marathon

























































































































































































This morning I was able to go to the SLC Half Marathon to cheer on my sister-in-law and cousins who were running. It was so fun to be able to stand on the sidelines and takes pictures, and it also got me really excited to do our half in August (Todd and I are going to run the Logan Half again this year)
