I’ve been so busy working on photos from my second session this month that I never got around to posting about the first session! But here they are- better late than never, right? My cousin married my sister’s all-through-college roommate, so I feel kin to both of them! They live in the Chicago area, and [...]

Thanksgiving and Tracy’s Decision-Making
November 26th, 2008 · No Comments · Holidays, Mi Familia, Travel
Wow, our party for Thanksgiving tomorrow has changed radically in the past few days. Unfortunately, it’s due to deaths in the distant extended family and hospital stays in the immediate family. It’s exactly what you don’t want to have happen around the holidays. So it may be the smallest Thanksgiving we’ve had in many years, actually, but [...]

It is a busy first weekend in November coming up, and every weekend in November will involve some minor or major traveling. It is a busy month! Tomorrow I am assisting with a wedding with SilverBox Photographers, which is very exciting because they are EXCELLENT. I am going to learn so much, but I also know [...]

Family Fun Weekend Fun
October 20th, 2008 · No Comments · Mi Familia, Pointless Updates, Travel
Well, for all my huffing and puffing about Fred’s Hotel: Now With Color TV, the weekend was great. My whole family came down and the weather was perfect, and generally we had a nice time. Except for that loss by Missouri on Saturday night. It was pretty painful to watch that go down. Color TV [...]

Jo Ann’s Family (Was Really My First Family Shoot)
June 24th, 2008 · No Comments · Mi Familia, Photography, Portraits
I don’t know why I said the other week that Denise’s family was my first family shoot, because I’ve been taking pictures of Jo Ann’s family since their daughter, Bethany, was born. I must be crazy! Jo Ann is my sister’s best friend, and I offered to take photos of Bethany when she was an infant. [...]

Denise’s Beautiful Family (My First Family Shoot)
June 8th, 2008 · No Comments · Engagement Photos, Mi Familia, Photography, Portraits
I first met Denise through Model Mayhem. In fact, she was the first model that I shot with. We had an after-work session outside the Governor’s Mansion in Jefferson City last February in forty-degree weather. When she asked if I would do some pictures with her fiance and children, I was thrilled! We met up [...]

St. Patrick’s Day
March 14th, 2008 · 2 Comments · Holidays, Mi Familia
Today is officially St. Patrick’s Day, according to the Catholic Church, because March 17 falls during Holy Week this year. Since Holy Week > St. Patrick’s Day, Holy Week wins. But many March 17 festivities were not moved, although this certainly lets you have the excuse of starting your St. Patrick’s Day celebrating early. Start [...]

The Hair of Suri Cruise, and Other Reasons My Family Laughs At Me
December 28th, 2007 · No Comments · Mi Familia
I just read and enjoyed this article on the growth of local politics under the Bush administration. I have this reputation within my family for knowing arcane details about the private lives of celebrities and entertainers. It’s an earned reputation, one I’ve proved over and over again by acknowledging publicly that I know who Aaron [...]

(Still) (More) Sick
July 6th, 2007 · No Comments · Endless Blathering, Mi Familia
So, yeah? I thought that I was sick last weekend. And then thought I was getting better and I came to work on Tuesday and wrote a blog post about it. But I wasn’t getting better. No, all that was actually the prelude to the Getting Sick For Real. It was one of those knock-you-on-your-ass [...]

Thinking Ahead
June 29th, 2007 · No Comments · Entertainment, Gardening, Mi Familia
After several weeks of drought, we have had two lovely rainy days in a row. I am very happy about this, because I love rainy summer days and I love seeing all of my plants get badly-needed drinks of water- the kind of drink where it seeps way into the ground, not just puddles on [...]
