What's a Safari?

Several times each year, we set dates to go to many of our favorite locations across the country.

These include the Salt Flats in Utah's Western desert, Lake Powell on the Utah Arizona border, Utah's Sand Dunes,

Snow Canyon in St. George, Jackson Hole Wyoming, San Francisco CA, and others.

 

We invite you to join us

"Safari Destination Locations"

Waterfall Mania

 Though way up in the mountains, Steven's secret waterfalls actually require very little hiking. Rather in formal, or plain casual, be ready for this fast action location. Rumor has it that a Bear Lake Monster lives close by. For this adventure we require no fear of monsters and a minimum "portrait order" of $250. Picture with Monster additional. Session and travel, 60 poses, $135.

Salt Flats and Drive Fast

 With no speed limits on the Salt Flats, please be cautious and pay me before you go. As a family, engagement, bridal, modeling, you name it, the Salt Flats takes it beyond the sound barrier. With a cool car, truck, motorcycle or your favorite trike, you will be sporting a new hair style in this windows down, full speed ahead location. There is a bonus besides no stop lights for 80 miles. The old WWII buildings and hangers still sports the original paint job. This offers a second location to shoot, one with a a rustic look from your journey to the state to our west. This extravaganza requires a $250 minimum "portrait order". Session and travel, 70 poses, $140. 

Dune City

 Nothing like the wind in your hair and sand in your teeth. Fashionable clothes and stylish pose is always hot in the Sand Dunes. Clients commonly like pictures with their favorite cars or vehicle. If it's a "Rolls", or your "Little Red Wagon", we guarantee you will smile with sand in your teeth with what we can do for you. With a driving time of 1 hour 40 minutes from Provo requires a minimum "portrait order" of $300 for this location. Session and travel, 60 poses, $140. For a bonus, want' a shoot at Steven's favorite Ghost Town while your down in that area? Plan on a little more time and this haunting addition is yours with no fright of additional charges.

Lake Powell

 Wow, water temperature 87 degrees, water smooth as glass, full speed through narrow red rock canyons, towering cliffs 300 feet above on both sides, feels like your in a James Bond Movie. Portraits using the terrain, with your own boat or water craft as a base or prop are a real bonus. Common family portraits on a shoreline area with a canyon backdrop are grand. With a 4 hour photo/boat travel allotment, let us pamper. Bullfrog is often the preferred marina for water activity and sports high steep cliffs as a backdrop. Wahweap near Page Arizona has a more open "Grand Canyon looking" landscape for portraits. If desired, Rainbow Natural Bridge (largest natural bridge in the world) is 51 miles from either Wahweap on the west side or Bullfrog from the east. This safari requires a minimum "portrait order" of $700. Session, travel to Lake Powell, 4 hours photography/boat time, 60-80 poses, $195. Boat race following your appointment, priceless . . .

City by the Bay

 Capture the romance and style of the "City by the Bay", San Francisco. With photo stops at the Fine Art Center, The Golden Gate Bridge, and Steve's secret beach, one will go home with more than just a souvenir. The Art Center is a delight dressed in formal attire or in "ole time" classics. With its towering pillars, accented with ponds, ducks and walkways, it's easy to tell why it's a favorite of Steven. A touch of casual in the park is always great, just be careful what color you wear. They painted their bridge in a golden color and would clash with similar tones. At sunset, you find us at the beach where soft color tones are best. This half-day event requires a minimum "portrait order" of $750. Session, airfare and travel, 120 poses, $300.

Snow Canyon

 Majestic Mountains, ridges, and stone ravines, all carved during the glacier days of old when some claim we were still living in caves. Old Portraits from the past are still visible on the surrounding Canyon Walls. This is where the term: "Wall Portraits" came from, as portraits were drawn on the rock walls themselves. With technological advances since our caveman days, we can make your portraits "To Go" so they can be shared and displayed in your home instead of only embossed on the rock facing like the others in the past. Minimum "Wall Portrait order" of $300 required for this location. Session and travel, 60 poses, $145.
