Cade's Birthday

Cade's 8th Birthday was today and we headed up to my mom and dad's lake house. Cade had a wonderful time. His birthday is last in the year making him ready and anxious. I wanted to post this video to my journal so that when Cade gets older he can look back on it and enjoy the memories. At the end of the video Cade gives a shout out to some of his friends at school.

Speaking of Birthday's my mothers 59th birthday is on New Years Day 2007. She doesn't look her age and I am so glad that she is in great health. Okinawan's live longer than anyone else in the world. So I expect mom to be around for a long long time. Stay tuned for more video at mom's BDAY party.

Christmas Cards

I have been absolutely busy these last several weeks. The Christmas rush has finally come to an end and I have almost finished with all the orders. I really want to thank all my customers who have made this year brilliant. I look forward to another year of capturing and documenting great moments.

Print Competitions

"WEDDING INK"

I am entering a couple of print competitions and have decide on my best of 2006. One of the images was from September 9th, 2006 at the Kilgore-Lewis House. While shooting this beautiful outdoor wedding for Forest and Jamie something spectacular took place. Here is the caption I submitted with the print. "Toward the end of the reception the groom took off his jacket and rolled up his sleeves. While he gently embraces his bride for a slow dance, there seems to be two separate and noticeable energies. A contrast between the tattoos and the softness and purity of the dress." Believe it or not, I haven't entered a print competition before, but really wanted to expand my credentials against other professional photographers in the world. I'll keep everyone updated as to my success or short comings with the competition. Wish me luck.
