A Call to Arms
If you’re a temple photographer, you should join our group on Panoramio: http://www.panoramio.com/group/10679 It’s a photographers community, and it’s focused on tagging geo-locations. This is especially cool for temples, because they’re scattered across the world. Who’s with me? Let’s dot the world with our temple photos. (By the way, as we upload to Panoramio, they’ll […]
Cardston Alberta Temple B&W
Does anyone know which LDS temples don’t have an angel Moroni? I know this one, Mesa, AZ, and Laie, HI, don’t. Are there any others? Here’s a cool tidbit: A brother at the temple told me the orb on the pinnacle of this temple is a (symbolic) urim and thummim. Click the temple picture to view […]

Salt Lake Temple Wallpaper and Print (vertical) 01
Here’s a simple shot of the icon of all temples: Salt Lake City, Utah Temple. In case you were wondering, the wallpaper is formatted for a wide screen. But the 5×7 download is just the vertical shot without the logo and all that. It would make a great print for your office or home. Might […]
Sneak Peek: Timpanogos Temple Shoot
I shot the Timpanogos Temple last night at twilight. These three diptychs are a teaser of what’s to come. Subscribe for updates if you want to get the FREE prints when they’re released. P.S.: See HelamanGallery’s logo in the temple architecture? That symbol represents Jacob’s Ladder. More on that in a future post. Lot’s more.
Boise Temple Dawn (vertical)

Twin Falls Temple Sepia

Jordan River Temple (B&W)
I worked in South Jordan for a couple years, so this was my main temple for a while. Unfortunately, I never really photographed it while I was up there, except one quick shot in bad lighting. I had to make it black and white for it to look decent. Hopefully I’ll make it back there […]
