A Bit Behind...


Wow, a bit behind on posting photos to the blog here. I have been so focused on getting the final products in your hands, that I have missed some of the sharing that I get to do on here.

Truth be told, its my son's 2nd birthday on Thursday and I have been dedicating all my free time to helping my wife, clean inside and out, shop and get all those last minute things done before the big party on Saturday. Zach's God Mother (& Lynne's Cousin), Lisa Delaney, is coming down from Massachusetts. We also have a good friend of Lynne's (and mine for that matter), Rhonda Thompson, coming down from Athens with her son Aiden. Lots to do around the house to get ready for food, drinks and fun with family and friends.

I will see if I can get some pictures posted on Tuesday or Wednesday...

My Granddad, His Book

I was asked by my granddad to shot some portraits of him for a book he is writing about a skirmish he was involved in during WWII on the Pacific front. My granddad can be fairly conservative so I went after safe, Navy Portraits (you know, the desk, the flag). I really wanted to pull of a dramatic photo like
Peter Yang's Esquire magazine shot of Admiral William Fallon
, but thats ok. After I set up and he came over to the house, I found out that he wanted full length shots and some with a sword. In fact, he wanted to swing the sword as it relates to some story in the book. Hmm.... wasn't ready for that, but that's OK, I can adapt!!
