Time Out for Kennedy
Even in a time out Kennedy is just too adorable. I am so weak, couldn’t resist those eyes.
Livin’ The Dream In Tahiti with My Mom and My iPhone
I recently got back from a 10 day vacation with my mom in French Polynesia. It had been a lifelong dream of hers to travel there ever since she saw the 1951 film, Bird of Paradise, as a teenager. Since my dad had no desire to spend 10 days in the humidity, I luckily pulled [...]
My Favorite Photo Subjects
Every once in a while I get asked, what is my favorite thing to photograph. Easy question to answer.. hands down my favorite “thing” to shoot is my family and friends (including the four legged ones). Nose around the blog a bit and you’ll find quite a few posts centered around my family and friends. [...]
Snowshoeing In Breckenridge
Snowshoeing is my favorite winter activity. Well, other than laying on the couch with Cec, next to a warm fire, reading a book, while puffy white snowflakes are falling outside. Anyhoo, I digress. Over Martin Luther King weekend we rented a house up in Breckenridge with a group of friends. Breckenridge [...]
Meet Samantha
More from the film archives. This is Samantha, my cousins’ daughter. If you can’t tell from the photos, she is a real spitfire.
My Mom Had Surgery
In October my mom had surgery to repair a tear in her rotator cuff. I was pretty nervous about it, so what did I do, took photos of course. The surgery itself went fine. Her doctor and all the people in the surgical area were great. Super nice and they seemed [...]
It’s World Aids Day
Today is World Aids Day and Starbucks is donating 5 cents for every drink sold directly to The Global Fund and throughout the rest of the holiday season, there will be special (RED) drinks available at Starbucks. So go grab a cup of coffee and help fight HIV/AIDS. If you’re like me and [...]
I’m A Virgo
Nothing like a really bad senior portrait to motivate me to post something else in this category. So, last month was my 38th birthday. Obviously this isn’t a recent photo. It’s from about 30 years ago…I’m pretty sure it was taken at my 8th birthday party. This photo brings to light three things about me: [...]
20th High School Reunion
Last month was my 20th High School reunion, Chandler High School Class of ‘88, which I did not attend. Thankfully, I was on a Colorado Fall Colors assignment (not that I had even planned on going to the reunion). But to commemorate the occasion, I thought I’d post my senior portrait and share some embarrassing [...]
My Little Sister Got Married
And to avoid wearing a bridesmaid’s dress, I volunteered my photographic talents. Thank goodness for canon auto focus because I probably spent 60% of the ceremony and bit of the reception in tears. Let me tell you, taking photos when you have tears welled up and streaming down your face is somewhat of a challenge. [...]
New Hat
We’ve already established that I have some out of control hair. As a result I have a hat fetish. While in New Orleans this past May I had to deal with wicked humidity and rain…bad combo for my ‘fro. So I had a great excuse to buy a new hat!! This [...]
Bad Hair
Cec suggested I put up this self portrait I took of one of my bad hair days. Hmmm, I think I am sensing a theme. Anyway, last December, I made the mistake of letting my younger sister straighten my hair…never again. It did look pretty funny though. I was too mortified [...]
Cec and I Goofing Around
We were down in the basement being silly, taking some deadpan family photos. Cec was totally in the moment, had her game face on, I set the camera timer too short and as you can see, didn’t make it to the couch in time. A happy accident, I think this shot turned out pretty funny. [...]
A Walk Along the Rhein River
Every other year my family goes on vacation to Germany to visit my mom’s side of the family. They live in a town called Ketsch, which is right on Rhein River. We have a few must do’s every time we go… we walk along the river, we visit Heidelberg Castle, we spend [...]
Group Trip to Telluride
Telluride is one of the most gorgeous mountain towns in Colorado. Highly recommend it as a vacations spot, especially if you like to hike. The San Juan mountains are arguably the most picturesque in Colorado.
A Sketch by Cec
Drawn by my partner, Cecilia. Yes I really am bow-legged but I do have more than three fingers on each hand and I’m generally not out and about in the nude. Oh, also, my hair is longer now. In my college days, I was once running across campus in a blizzard and was clearly identifiable [...]
