Chocolate City...

Hello all,

I received phone call last week from a young lady who was just about to graduate from college...she said she'd be headed to Washington soon to start her internship and she wanted to book a portrait session...

So we scheduled a time in the late evening and shot away...

And as always...I had a blast....
I wish her the best of luck...

We'll just call her "K"....

A Day at the Park....

Hello All,

I'm excited to share with you a few images I had the pleasure of capturing today....
A Co-worker of mine agreed to meet me at the park with his two lovely daughters Grace and
Haley...These two toddlers were loads of fun to watch and shoot...

.................YAY............................

and I gotta bonus today.....

There were two adorable little ones at the park playing as well...and one little one named "J"....jumped right in front of the camera...lol...I didn't mind snapping a couple but I had to make sure his father didn't mind...

and of I can't forget the older sister "P"...

I had a blast...

until next time....

Aqua....

Here's a look at your next TV news reporter.....Ms. Aqua (drum roll....)

I had the privilege of helping Aqua put together a resume tape a couple of weekends ago...She called me Saturday and said she wanted to hire me to take her head shots to post on her resume website...

I was unable to schedule her in later this week because I'm having surgery tomorrow but I squeezed her in to a very busy day on Sunday...

I wasn't the only one...her hair stylist opened up the shop just for her....I think that's amazing!!!!

She's one of those people with major drive and determination....she'll go far in the news business as long as she keeps striving to be the best....

Anyway,

I met her at a her home and set up my "portable studio" and we had a blast....Her brother stopped by and thought something crazy was going on inside the house because he kept seeing this flash of light stabbing through the windows...

of course it was my strobes going off....lol

until next time,
