Portland Photographer Happy Hours…

For the past few months I’ve been attending the Portland Photographer Happy Hours started by my friend and ex-neighbor, Andie Petkus. Her idea was to create a forum where local photographers could get together and discuss current issues & topics confronting our industry and to see other photographers studios. I hosted the July Happy Hour [...]

First Day of School, 2008…

New clothes, new backpack (hip-girls, one strap), must be the first day of school!

Barley’s First Birthday…

That would be the dog. While working in the studio this August, the kid kept coming in, “where’s the tape?” “can I borrow the scissors?” (that one’s always trouble with a seven-year-old), “we need more wrapping paper!” After the requests sunk in, I thought “what the heck is going on” and went into the house [...]

Kid Loves Facepainting…

Along with popsicles, sprinklers, and playing dress-up, Miss B just loves having her face painted. Which I guess is a good thing we live in Portland because it seems you can’t swing a dead cat without hitting one of these booths at all the outdoor festivals we are fond of going to. While not the [...]

Keith Moon, Who drummer, 1946-1978

Going through my old rock and roll slides while looking for images to upload to the PhotoShelter Collection, (which is now defunct) I ran across this old Fujichrome slide of Keith Moon, drummer for the Who. Of the few images of the Who I sent them, this is the one they selected. This shot is [...]

East Coast Vacation…

Blogging for me sure took a hit this summer with all the travel, camping and summer activities, so I am playing “catch-up” yet again. In July we went back East to my hometown to visit the family and show Miss B the house where I grew up in Trenton. From there we migrated to Philadelphia [...]

Independance Day…

Have a great 4th, enjoy the fireworks and don’t get burnt!

Perfecting Her Dismount…

Wow, getting to play around with my new camera, shooting some action in the backyard. Miss B has come up with a new way to enjoy her swing set and learn acrobatics at the same time. The new camera has a capture speed of an amazing 8.5 frames per second, allowing for way more “keepers” in an [...]

Something new, something old…

Miss B just lost her first front tooth the night before and the new one is already showing! Captured the change as a test with my new, used Canon 1D Mark II from eBay.

Daytona 500, all fun and no work!…

Many visitors to this blog know I have been a motorsports fan since I was a little kid. It’s a long story, but here’s a quick summary in case you don’t know. Even after some high-end hearing loss directly related to too many rock concerts and auto races, it’s still a thrill to go see a race live. After all [...]
