So my wife and I are Urban Gardners.  We live in a second story apartment in Rexburg, ID.  Any quick google search about Rexburg and you’ll realize that this isn’t much of an urban environment, but we like to think we live in a big city.  Our neighbor’s building is currently vacant so we figured we wouldn’t be getting any complaints from them if we were walking around on the roof.

I had the opportunity recently to go home.  I love going back to my parent’s house to see my family.  We took some time this trip to take some family portraits of my little sister’s family.

My niece Skotty turned 2 last week and I took the opportunity to snap a few candid shots while we were there.

For a class that I took here at BYU-Idaho I was required to redesign the packaging for a well known product.  I chose Symphony Chocolate. I chose this product because I think that it’s one of the most underrated chocolates on the market.  I think that Hershey can do a much better job of marketing the product to a younger hipper audience.  With this redesign I really wanted the packaging to be as striking as the chocolate itself.  Something that a young 30 something might put on the coffee table because it looks as good as it tastes.

 Product Redesign Final

Stop motion movies have always interested me.  I think that some of the most creative videos that I’ve seen have been stop motion animation.  I made this little video for a class at BYU-Idaho and had a great time doing it.  I hope you enjoy.
