this year gabby is enrolled in a photography class at school and will be starting out where i did…in the darkroom.
using my first camera, real film, fiber paper, chemicals (oh, i miss that smell) a big ‘ol enlarger…

this makes me very happy.

every time i look at her photos, i think of a little birdie…
a sweet sweet little blue eyed birdie

meet baby grace

oh…those baby blues!

to even think about two outfits in a 20 min mini session is tough,
but when mom brings outfits as cute as both of these, and babe grace is
such a happy girl…i say, let’s go for it!

such a happy girl.

merritt . model portfolios

i knew as soon as i saw merritt that i would not only shoot for her what she needed,
but i would shoot her for what i wanted as well.
the truth is, i pretty much do that with every session. and, why not?
we’re there and as long as i know we’ve got what we need…
that is the time and place to push a little further. lately, i’ve been extra enthralled with light.
stepping out of my comfort zone and into the..let’s see what happens if…zone.
i love it. i love the freedom and the chance and the drama of it.
merritt has a natural beauty, a kind of french film star aura. we played with that.
below are some of my favorite from this session.

street portraits . second showing

if you find yourself anywhere near red tree gallery in oakley this friday, august 13th, 6:00pm to 9pm…we welcome you to stop in for the second showing of street portraits.
this is a traveling group of images and a continued benefit for the homeless and hurting in our city through the efforts of the city gospel mission.

not until the creation and maintenance of decent conditions of life for all people are recognized and accepted as a common obligation of all people and all countries-
not until then, shall we, with a certain degree of justification, be able to speak of mankind as civilized.
