Hive Gallery:
Artistry of Cakes
I was meeting with Emily (the owner of the Hive Gallery) about a fashion photography show later this year and she mentioned that she was doing a show about cakes but she didn’t have anything to put on the walls. Let’s just say I had some ideas. Come check it out on opening night, details below!

The Hive Gallery at Trolley Square, Salt Lake City
The “Artistry of Cake Decorating” will be hosting a variety of cakes from local bakers and bakery’s, along with photographer, Jake Garn. Jake will be exhibiting photographs that represent his perspective of fashion and cakes. Come enjoy!

Afghans
and Couches
“There is an afghan sitting on my couch and we are taking several precautions in case it’s a suicide bomber, even though it’s made of yarn.”
I rarely stereotype people in regular life, but in joke-life funny stereotypes are a definite guilty pleasure. But I promise I love all people regardless of religion, or ethnicity or even if they choose to drink Pepsi. Fine. We’re different and that’s ok, in fact it’s awesome. But if you are a Jay Leno fan then you should be ashamed of yourselves. I cannot respect you until you re-think your life… I have to draw the line somewhere.
I say that disclaimer because jokes (like the top one) were said throughout the night whilst shooting afghans and models and they were hilarious! How can you not expect hilarity to ensue when we show up to a shoot with no other plan than to somehow make the girls wear blankets made by relatives from four generations ago… bless their souls. Sorry about throwing the idea out there about cutting your blankets up Grandma Dahlberg.
I still think it would have been a cool idea though, but I do have to admit, even without the cutting I’m pretty dang excited about the results!
