First Day of School, and Other Stories

(Still plenty of catch-up to do, but I figured I should say this on the day it is happening!) Today we loaded the kids in the car and took them both to school. We dropped off Ian first at his class and he had what we call “a good drop off.” This means he went […]

Catching Up to Do, Part II

April 12th, and here’s some great shots for Nina’s passport! See this image larger. Hey there, pretty girl! See this image larger. They said she needed to be wearing clothes, sadly. I could have photoshop’d something in place, but let’s face it, I didn’t have the tools with me at the post office. Personally I […]

Catching up to do…

Sorry about the delays… I will continue to update the blog only as much as I’m able with my work schedule. Things right now are pretty horrible work-wise. Melissa has been a saint about the strain this is putting my family under. By the way, if I didn’t mention it, there’s a whole slew of […]

A Bit More Easter

Because Melissa, Ian and Nina scooted out of town to Ohio during the Easter weekend, some packages and cards were not opened until after the fact. Thank you everybody for sending great stuff! I’ve got to get a bunch of pictures off of Melissa’s laptop so that the Ohio journey’s story can be told! In […]

Happy Easter 2010!

Bunnies everywhere! See this image larger. A co-worker of not too long ago that became a great friend of mine sent us this lovely outfit, and it is very Easter appropriate! (Thanks Jackie!) See this image larger. Here’s another blurry one… See this image larger. Ah the one that got away… this one upsets me […]

Hipstamatic iPhone App, Part II

So yeah, those of you thinking these look like junk, don’t worry, this isn’t going to become my go-to camera, I’m just screwing around. I might take a picture or two with it again, but I notice it looks best with non-portraiture. Melissa, Nina and Ian are in Ohio for Easter. I’m by my lonesome, […]

Hipstamatic iPhone App, Part I

So I bought this new little application for my iPhone that attempts to give the photos the iPhone can take, a more warm and authentic feeling by adding effects to them. It is a clever little application too, looks like a camera — you trade out lenses and film. The results? Well, you tell me! […]
