"All the pretty girls go the city"

...don't they, don't they, do my love.

currently listening to: Spoon

^Got the spotlight on Kristen by a passing car's high beams.

This snippet of West Palm Beach at night only has me wanting more!

An afternoon stroll...

I love where I live. I love my Ashley who spontaneously partakes in afternoon strolls with me. Life is good.

My Kristen

What a happy day we had, as single independent confident WOMEN on Valentines Day! ;)

Good night

Good morning

Mama and Baby Egret

I had the pleasure of enjoying this ^ before my first class of the semester this afternoon. My new telephoto is freakin' sweet! And I'd like to say, I'm starting to see the rewards of shooting manual.

The North Star

...it was a peaceful evening in Tequesta.

Petoskey, MI

Family Portraits

...the "meredith sticks a camera in your face" kind of way. :) They love me, and I love them for putting up with me.

I call him ^ my model child (even though he is not my child, and he is 13 going on 35).

It makes me happy to capture these smiling memories.

Tanner

My new photog cousin. :) He got the Nikon D60 for Christmas. Woot woot!

Sledding

We own the hill everytime. :)

W-w-w-w-wipeout!

For our family, sledding always guarantees an injury. But we broke the curse this year! NO injuries...to date.

Christmas Day

This littly guy is my youngest cousin. He wrote the most thoughtful note to Santa Clause and was beyond excited to find he ate the cookies and replied to the note by the next morning! I always hope this innocent belief lasts as long as possible for kids now'a'days. They've had too many other things of their youth destroyed already by living in this century.

Much love, and merry Christmas! :)
