Blair Hill Photography services the Wasatch Valley areas locating between Provo to Logan Utah.

Blair Hill Photography began in the year 2000 when Blair first decided she wanted to use her camera for something other than fun. Though Blair had been taking photographs for a long time, and was very familiar with the SLR camera she owned, she was always just snapping photographs of family & friend adventures, music events, or other various events around the town. She had been published several times in her local newspaper and other various sources, but still never quite thought of the idea to go 'professional.'

When Blair decided that it was time to put her passion to work, she started to attend classes right away on her new favorite subject, so that she could learn as much as she could aside from what she already knew. She attended classes at her local community college, a local arts program, and MICA – Maryland Institute College of Art. She began developing her progressing in the field of musical/industrial photography, and developed a clientel very quickly.

To the downside of all the progress Blair had made with her work, in 2003 she moved 2000 miles across the county, which means her clients were not locals anymore. Discouraged, and looking for a refreshing moment in life, Blair took a break from her passion of photography until 2005. In 2005, Blair realized how much she missed doing what she loved most, taking pictures. She realized how much her focus of photography had changed though, and began to pursue portrait photography.

Since 2005, Blair has been an active portrait photographer in the greater Wasatch Valley in Utah. She has been complemented again and again on her wonderful work, with a repeat clientel that simply keeps growing and growing.

With astonishing photography, incomparable to any of the other local photographers here in Utah, yet still with the most amazingly affordable prices, Blair Hill Photography is completely unique, and perfect. Every day Blair is coming up with new ideas on how to make her work different, better. She is constantly attending trainings and schooling to further her educational background in photography, and to learn anything new she could possibly learn.

Her current creditinals include the following:

Anne Arundel Community College – 2001, Photography Certificate

Maryland Institute College of Art – 2002-2003 Photography Classes

Salt Lake Community College – 2006-current A.A. Photography Classes

In addition to her passion of photography, Blair has a B.S. In sociology from the University of Utah, and is currently working towards her masters in Gerontology. She hopes to one day mix her love for people and culture with her love and passion for photography.

PHOTO! Here is a picture of Jim Toth (CAA); are Jim Toth and Reese Witherspoon dating? Jim Toth’s pic with Reese Witherspoon heats up press today with another one of those classic … “cozy” … stories.

You could write these cozy stories in your sleep. They always include the source saying the same thing – something along the lines of — “they were dining”, “smiling the whole time”, “very cozy”, “totally getting into it”, for “full two hours”, “definitely having fun”.

And the source always seems to have more information about one of the two people. Which one is it this time?

Details on Jim Roth. Yes, exactly.

Writes PEOPLE: “But a friend of Toth’s says the evening was “a date,” though “nothing serious.” The handsome agent is known as a ladies’ man: “He’s enjoying the single life”.

Who cares.

And what’s the best that the source could come up with? “Reese reached around his neck and pulled him close for a hug”.

Pulled him close huh?

The story also reveals who picked up the tab, and the name of the restaurant, and it’s location, just ironically.

Mei Lan, a 3-year-old female giant panda from Zoo Atlanta is shown to the media prior to her departure from Atlanta to China Thursday, Feb. 4, 2010 aboard a Federal Express cargo plane, called the “FedEx Panda Express”. Mei Lan is Zoo Atlanta's firstborn giant panda and will be accompanied on the trip by Heather Roberts, left, a giant panda keeper at Zoo Atlanta. Before heading to China, the plane will make a stop in Washington, DC, where it will pick up Tai Shan, a 4-year-old male giant panda born at the National Zoo. Experts believe there are only 1,600 giant pandas that remain in the wild.

Teen: I took racy photos because there's no sex-ed at our school

The 17-year-old boy used his no-sex-ed defense after nearly 150 close-up photos of females' bodies were found on his cell phone. The females were clothed in the photos, but they appeared to be taken without their consent. (Last story in the round-up.) (Austin American-Statesman)

why is it against the law to take pictures of girls with a cellphone? it's not like it's child porn or anything.

Posted by: lester | Feb 3, 2010 6:02:10 AM

Huh? Photos taken close up, no mention of up-skirt shots, etc. Sounds like he was shooting booty shots from behind, which isn't decent, but surely not against the law.

What about the BK woman with the cup in her sweaty cleavage-of-eternity? Did they have to get her permission?

I call creepy. (Perhaps. A nice tush and generous hips are eye candy to me.) But not illegal.

Hey, it's Austin, TX.
They have a severe Identity crisis.
They don't know if they're Liberal or
Conservative, and act like they never
heard of libertarian.

If this is upheld, it will put Private
Investigators out of business, and force
law-abiding cops to get a warrant for
surveillance.

What's next?
A review process by the content police before letters can be submitted at OS&RR??

Apologies to Texas readers here, but damn,,,,,,,,,spread legs,,extract heads.

Three cheers for the last straight boy in Austin!

hip, hip hurray!

Well in Austin's defence, if this story had been about Wisconsin, the pictures would have been taken of bodies in his freezer.

@LGL and lester

The reason he took pictures of these girls with their clothes on is due to the lack of sex education at his HS. How was he to know there was something underneath?

Posted by: Bill | Feb 3, 2010 7:04:56 AM

So, when he shoots someone, is that because they don't teach hunter safety classes?

Posted by: jj | Feb 3, 2010 7:04:59 AM

Couple of things –

If the girls were on public property, no consent needed.

Also, Lake Travis is not really Austin, it is one of these little conservate burbclaves that surrounds the city.

Posted by: johnjohn | Feb 3, 2010 8:01:58 AM

That's a lame excuse for being mildly pervy. But taking pictures of girls is legal as long as the photos were taken in a public place and the girls weren't unclothed.

Although we're used to seeing big predators attack smaller prey, nature features us animals that defy this convention.

From extremely venomous creatures like the blue-ringed octopus to ferocious beasts like the hyena to tiny killers like mosquitoes, these animals prove that they can take on much larger creatures, whether it's for defense or to get a feeding out of it.

Check out these relatively small animals that are a force to be reckoned with.

Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi may spread her legs for the camera, but she does not spread her legs for the camera: the crotch-flashing “Jersey Shore” star denies she’s the subject of any nude photos or videos being hawked to tabloids. “Like i said before about my supposed ’sex tape’…There are no nude pictures nor will there ever be,” she recently tweeted. “The tabloids just love Snook gossip.” That’s not stopping Radar from providing a steamy description of what they say they saw:

The stills and video leave nothing to the imagination, as she is wearing only a smile. In one photo she is in her bedroom, on her knees, with one hand on the ground and the other holding the rail of the bed frame. She is looking at the camera with her head tilted slightly. Her spot-it-anywhere fingernail polish is plainly visible. Another shot is too graphic to describe. And if it’s not Snooki in the photos then she has an identical twin!

As damning as the matching fingernail polish sounds, we wouldn’t be surprised if there were quite a few “identical twins” running around the bridge-and-tunnel crowd. With Snooki barely batting an eyelash at the rumors, it’s time for someone to put up or shut up.

Photoshop is a great tool for photographers. With this software, you can remove red eyes, correct blurry photos, and get rid of artifacts. Photoshop can also be used to remove hated ex-boyfriends, erase blemishes, and delete distracting objects from the background of the picture. While cleaning up a photo to make it look prettier is nice to be able to do, there are also disadvantages to altering photos.

Advantages to Retouching Photos

Who likes to look at photos with red eyes? Other than people who are interested in making monster movies, red eyes are usually undesirable in photos. Photoshop is a useful tool to get rid of red eyes.

Pictures sometimes turn out a little blurry. With Photoshop, you can sharpen the photo up a bit and make the photo a little less blurry. If the photo is too light, it is easy to darken it up. Similarly, it is easy to make dark photos lighter again. I have been able to make old pictures look new again by adding some color saturation to them. A friend of mine was able to make a photo of my baby that went through a house fire look like nothing had ever happened to it. A photo can be turned into black and white or sepia, or can have only one element colored in order to make a cool effect.

Photoshop is a useful tool to get rid of distracting backgrounds, branches that look like horns coming out of someone's head, boogers on a child's face, and ex-boyfriends. If we don't like what a picture looks like, we can change it to fit our desires. We can even change a picture to put us in a place that we have never been before.

Disadvantages to Retouching Photos

When we change our photos, it can leave us with a reality that doesn't exist. Children really do get boogers on their faces. One day they'll grow up and won't need to have their noses wiped any more. Teenagers might go through awkward stages, acne and all, and airbrushing their faces removes that reality. An ex-boyfriend might be a low-life loser, but if he was in your life, removing him from the picture removes the memories, however painful they may be at the moment.

Some of the most interesting elements of a picture are often the details that we don't pay attention to when we take the picture. My daughter had her ears pierced for a while a couple of years ago. The earrings ended up falling out, and I don't know how it happened, but the holes in her ears grew back almost immediately, and we weren't able to get the earrings back in again. While going through pictures of her, I saw the earrings and remembered the story. Cars and people in the background can remind you of trips that you took and people that you once were in contact with. Even ex-boyfriends can remind you of a relationship that you are thankful to be out of. If you erase all of these reminders, you might forget about them later.

Perhaps the best solution is to keep a copy of the original photo before you alter it. That way you can have the nice, cleaned up picture that you want, but you will still have a copy of all the details that will bring up memories years down the road.
