Happy Halloween!

Here's some shots from the Haunted Hospital in town put on by one of the fraternities from Southern Utah University. They have it every Halloween at this creepy old hospital that used to house psychotic patients. Trust me, the place really will scare the heck out of you, on any day of the year.

No haunted hospital is complete without a creepy nurse standing near a puddle of blood:


This one really caught me off guard (Okay, it scared the crap out me, although I still managed to make a shot out of it). It's another nurse with a knife, pounding on a window:


This next character was "Flannel Jack," named after a Cedar City myth of a man that terrorized the city, although some people swear it's a true story:


Although Halloween isn't all about scary characters, it's really about the candy:

Welcome to Garrett Davis Photography!


Welcome! I thought it was about time I started a blog, especially now that I have my website up and running. If you haven't checked it out yet, do it already!

www.garrettdavisphotography.com

My portfolio can be found on that site, while on this blog I will post my most recent work, including any stories that come along with the photos.

I guess I should introduce myself, if you don't already know who I am. Here's me:



















This photo was taken by a good friend and great photographer, Rainier Ehrhardt, during Georgia's crazy celebration at the 2005 SEC Championship game in Atlanta. Can you tell I was an excited intern back then?

Currently I am a staff photographer/videographer with The Spectrum & Daily News in Cedar City, Utah. I've been here for a year-and-a-half now, covering everything from sheep festivals and dog weddings to the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas and Southern Utah University football (which unfortunately is 0-8 at the moment).

Here's a few other sites that may interest you:

  • I'll post recent sports work on my SportsShooter.com site here.
  • Photo galleries from recent events can be found on my newspaper's site here.
  • I also have a page on a great site for the college shooters out there, College Front Page, which can be found here.
  • If you ever want to purchase some of my photos or view a wedding that I've photographed, you can do so here.
I hope you enjoy my work and continue to visit my blog every once in awhile!
