Hello all you fellow photographers!

It's time for us to have a Salt Lake City (area) GTG. Reply if interested, and give some possible dates and places to shoot.

I'm thinking near the Great Salt Lake, possibly the Marina area. The Albion Basin, at the top of Little Cottonwood Canyon was full of wild flowers last week. How long do you think they'll last? Should we try for the autumn leaves? I always love downtown.

What do you think?

I am up for it! Any day will pretty much work but weekends are better.

Been *extremely* busy with weddings these past couple of weeks... sometime nearer the end of September or early October would be good for me. Fall colors would be tantalizing. :-)

Leaves sound good. So does the end of Sept/1st of October range.

Unfortunately (ha, ha), I have to go to Hawaii to see my daughter married in September.

Anyone else?

How about if you just take us all to Hawaii with you instead?

Looks like it might be a small GTG. :) I say we start planning it anyways and see how things go, I am sure more people will come. Interesting areas:

1. Salt Flats
2. SL Marina
3. One of the canyons...which one???

I'll PM the Utah folks at the end of next week and tell them about this thread. I'm heading out to northern California to shoot my daughter's bridals and engagements. Sometimes being the mother of the bride is quite alot of fun.

Dave - You wouldn't take us to Brazil, so I'm leaving you behind. No Hawaii for you! ;-)

Darn, I wish it was next weekend! I live in Idaho but we're going to be in Park City next week. David, are you going to be shooting anything at Temple Square next weekend by any chance? If you are do you think I could stop by and observe for a bit?

I would love to do something like this. I need a push to get out and start shooting more anyway. Weekdays are best for me. This should be easier to accomplish with my schedule than the Annual Moab GTG. It is a lot closer. I'll keep an eye on this thread.

I have a Wedding at the Salt Lake Temple on Friday, does that count?

Count me in, Friday and Saturdays work best for me.

I work graves at the U of U hospital on the weekends. Weekdays usually work better for me, but I think a Utah gtg would be a blast.

Would love to join if you decide on the GTG taking place on Sept 6. (Have to get back to Munich, Germany, on Sept. 7.)

First of all, I would love to observe a wedding photo shoot. I'll be the grip and just help with the lights and to carry equipment. :)

About a small GTG, we might have enough interest to have one either next weekend or the weekend after that. My vote is for a small GTG for September 6 and we can plan a larger one for the end of September when the leaves are red.

thoughts?

Yes! We'll probably be taking the kids to see the temple at some point, if we're there when you are would it be really obnoxious if I stood around and observed for a little bit? I love your photography and I would love to see how you work!

Heh... bring your camera, maybe I'll put you to work! :-)

I'm good with a small GTG soon & more involved GTG for the leaves.

Lol, I'll carry your bag and bring you water and hope that if I stand around long enough some of your talent will rub off on me. :) What time are you going to be there? I have no idea what our plans are going to be yet, but we're planning to visit the temple at some point anyway, so we might be able to stop by while you're there.

So...who could join us for a small GTG on the 6th of September? I think that a visit to the Salt Flats and another spot would be perfect.
08/25/2008 05:47:50 PM · #21
I won't be available on the 6th (blame another wedding). But don't wait up for me....
08/25/2008 08:59:30 PM · #22
I couldn't do the 6th, I'd need a couple weeks notice in advance so I could ask off that night of work.

I could (noon and later).
08/29/2008 10:29:56 AM · #24
I could make that.
08/29/2008 10:42:49 AM · #25
I would love to join you! My family has a campout scheduled for the 6th so that would not work for me. I'll watch this thread in case you pick another day.
