Show me your Flair by Extra Medium

Show me your Flair

After a week in Washington DC it’s nice to be back home. Needless to say, the first thing I had to eat when I was back was Mexican food. No offense east coast, but Chipotle is not authentic Mexican food. It’s still good, however. Mmmm barbacoa…

I have a wedding this Saturday. First one in a couple weeks, I hope I’m not too rusty. Then I only have like 4 more weddings until March or so. It’ll be good to get some time off. Let me work on my life, kids, house, real job, 6-pack abs, and other things. Eventually do that trip to Death Valley. Perhaps some newborns, etc.

Anyway, I like this shot because of the light. Just spun and shot.
Sorry for being a bad commenter on here. Well, not really that sorry. Real life comes first. And I didn’t take many photos in DC because I spent most of my free time visiting old friends. Nothing wrong with Flickr friends, but real world always comes first. I know you understand.

Want to go Dutch? by Extra Medium

Want to go Dutch?

The Pennsylvania Dutch “Amish” folk really don’t like having their pictures taken. Like most things in life, I found this out the hard way. Perhaps if I would have made the camera myself out of wood, twine and dung they would have accepted the technology and allowed me to do it. OH, I’d also have to wear a white shirt, suspenders and have a beards that I started growing when I was 14. It’s an interesting life, and they seem to have adapted quite well.

This was shot after I gave up on photographing a buggy going down the main street in Intercourse. Yes, that’s the town’s name. It’s between Blue Balls & Paradise. (not joking). I’ve been in Intercourse before, but never for more than an hour and that was a long time ago. I was on my way out of town when I saw these buggies coming from their farm, and spun around my convertible mustang and literally just sprayed the scene with my 85 1.4D @ f/1.8. I was lucky to get this, and couldn’t have framed it any better. Just wish I had more clouds to play with.

Looking forward to coming home and playing with my kids after seeing some amazing fall color, eating way too many cheesesteaks and catching up with old friends. Back to reality.

Can You See Your Future Ahead of You? by Extra Medium

Can You See Your Future Ahead of You?

I've worked 29 hours the first 2 days here, so not a whole lot of time for taking pictures. But of course I was going to slip out at sunset once in a while. Even today (Saturday) I have to go in for a couple hours, but hopefully be out in time for sunset. then tomorrow, unless they say otherwise, I'm off to Philly to catch up with old friends, a couple cheesesteaks and get some new Penn State stuff.

Hope you are all well.

A Quick Goodbye by Extra Medium

A Quick Goodbye

I'm off to Washington DC for a few days. I hope I return soon. So this is farewell for a bit. Not sure if it's until tomorrow, or next week. So I'll leave you with this.

Love others like you want to be loved.
Forgive & Forget
Smile because you can, not because you should.

Please Don't Sleep Forever by Extra Medium

Please Don't Sleep Forever

So I didn’t do the newborn shoot yesterday. Found out late morning that one of my kids who was sick all weekend has Swine Flu. So that changes everything. No way I was going to be near a newborn if I was in contact with someone with swine flu. So postponed it until early next week. He’s feeling better now and the fever is almost gone, but nothing is more scary than hearing your child has a condition which has been deadly for so many other kids. I just prayed he gets over it quick and will be back to his playful self soon. This is Ethan from about a month ago. He’s probably driving a truck by now.

If any of you have a family member with a fever, sore throat, runny nose… get checked out. This flu is a killer and can get you quick if you don’t act fast. I hate hearing sad stories.

Found out an hour ago that I’m flying to Washington DC tomorrow for a few days. I’m not sure what ‘few’ means either. There’s a big problem and I’m the only warm body around to fly on short notice. And it just so happens I have no shoots or client meetings at all until next Saturday’s wedding. So maybe I’ll see some fall color afterall. Anyone near DC? I’ll be working for most of it, but if I’m still around for the weekend, perhaps someone might want to give me a tour.
