contrite

a friend just informed me that it is UNACCEPTABLE that it has been 20 days since i last posted here. i don't like it, but i am inclined to agree. please accept my humble apologies and recycle through some of my old excuses...because i don't have any new ones.

so...to appease her, and hopefully you, here's my favourite image from a recent senior portrait session i did with abi in portsmouth. iPod ad, anyone? (also, she's wearing a really cool hat...she doesn't have a funny shaped head.)



maybe if i'm really on top of things today, i'll post some of the few shots i got when i ATTENDED my first wedding in 4 years a few weeks ago...i was mostly not in photographer mode, because i was in florist, girl-friday, child-wrangler mode...

warm fuzzy emails

today i got an email w/ the subject line, "vegan shoe girl with backpiece". it was a guest from a wedding i photographed in may writing to say that she loved the photos i'd taken of her and her husband. (whenever anyone tells me, "i'm not photogenic...i always look _____ in pictures", i take it as a personal challenge.

so, i grabbed her and her husband (he was the best man), and did a 5 minute "mini-session" with them. also, she had a beautiful tattoo and awesome shoes, so it was just kind of coincidental that i wound up with so many stunning shots of her/her accessories/ink.

these are the photos she was talking about.

the awesome shoes


the back ink


her crazy-awesome blue eyes (and jovial best-man husband)




aren't they so cute?
