the season of gifts…

Monday, December 29th, 2008

many good things have been happening these days. in the midst of the snow and weather, I’ve been able to spend some quality time with friends family and loved ones…
The other day I stumbled upon a view that basically captured what I feel this season is about (and yes, Courtney yet again encouraged the Uturn [...]





winter wonderland…

One of my favorite things about Courtney is her spontanaeity and sense of adventure. She’s got this laid back attitude that is up for anything and never has turned down my requests and random u-turns (while in the car) to stop and take photos of things I see.
Last night we went outside to take pictures in the [...]

Last week it was a lot of work, and finally, I’ve got a couple of days to relax. For me it’s typically that way: Work hard and play hard. And tonight is my first night in a while where I don’t have something in the morning that has an early alarm clock associated to it. [...]

I’ve always looked at Leica cameras with awe and desire. There is something about these [...]

It’s the time of year where hordes of kids are singing their first holiday tunes for hordes of parents (and titos and titas) armed with cameras.
And after “ga-ga ing” over the 3 year olds and the rest of the other kid’s carols, Cole decided to do something on his own, after the performance as everyone [...]





a little bit of planning…

Been spending time in the shadows playing with a redesign of my blog. For me, a project of this sort is so much more of a thinking process as it an art project. First I want to be sure that I am thinking about the direction I am taking my creativity and that my [...]





catching up…

Tuesday, December 2nd, 2008

Obviously, there has been a lot going on for me. Some busy work, but also a lot of fun, good, end of the year stuff.
But I’m sure plenty of it has to do with the time of year, where we get to celebrate (sometimes party after party after party) and enjoy the company of all [...]
