Baby Feet!

Baby Feet
by Edgar Guest

Tell me, what is half so sweet, as a baby's tiny feet, pink and dainty as can be, like a coral from the sea? Talk of jewels strung in rows, gaze upon those little toes, fairer than a diadem, with the mother kissing them!

This is truly one of my life's great treasures baby feet!

New Prop - New Baby

It was a great week in the studio - couple new babies and a new prop to get the creative juices flowing. These sweeties were a pleasure to photograph, Luke loves his little sister and was probably the best two year old I've had the good fortune to photograph especially considering he just got a new sister in his life. This is just one of a bunch of great images we created. Thanks Eric and Julie, look forward to showing them to you this week.

Time sure does fly!

Wow its been since September that I wrote here, time sure is flying by..........I guess its age but I feel like the Fall is just going so quickly. What have I been doing with my time I wonder? Its school season for us and though we don't have alot of schools we do have a couple and our biggest one right now is Langston Charter Middle School. Both my kids have gone there, my son is there right now. Its a single gender school environment with uniforms, he is in 6th grade now. So its a real pleasure to shoot middle school kids. The 6th graders are still babies and do whatever you ask them to. The 7th grader girls are starting to awaken to their style and fashion and hard they try to make themselves individuals even in uniform. some 7th grade boys are still immature and naive but alot of them are starting to get their attitudes on. The 8th grade boys on the other hand, forget about it, they are that and more. 8th grade girls a pleasure too, they just want to look good! Its an interesting thing to be around. We had to go back and reshoot some of them, 45 out of 300 to be exact because some didn't like their hair, their skin, their eyelashes and yes we got that one!

Art in the Park and a New Yorker visits

This weekend we had company from New York here, Dan's sister Anita, she came for a brief visit, only Friday AM to Sunday AM but we had a great time. It was a beautiful weekend weather wise which is always a blessing when a New Yorker comes down, considering the perpetual gray sky they live with. LOVE LOVE New York don't get me wrong I will always be a New Yorker and damn proud of it but they do have the worst weather. Anyway she came and we enjoyed the sun and the company. Made a great dinner Friday night crab legs and ribs. Went to Zac's soccer game on Saturday, Farmers Market, lunch on the Reedy and more sun, followed by an awesome dinner at Bonefish, before we knew it we were taking her to the airport Sunday.

Gabi and I went to Art in the Park as I had to capture the event for the Journal. We both got some nice jewelry. Best of all we enjoyed the art together and some mother daughter time. Enjoy the images. You can probably see some in this weeks Journal too.

Ok so I am a rock star photographer after all......LOL! These are images from the Edwin McCain concert at Euphoria here in Greenville, friday night. It was so much fun. He is an awesome performer and we all had a great time.

Concert Photographer?

Ok so today I get a call from the Greenville Journal, I was supposed to casually photograph a couple of the events going on downtown this weekend, but today they tell me that one of them is going to be a lead story and they need me for two Euphoria events. One is the Edwin McCain concert tonite!!!!!! So while she is telling me the details I am thinking I can't do this, I've never photographed a concert and had press priveledges before. So right as I am about to say "i am busy" because I am basically scared to death, I hear myself say ok I can do it?????? Oh my god what am i thinking..............? so here I sit just before I leave to go be a photographer (that is what I am I am guessing) with media priveledges and if i feel like I gotta get up on that stage to do this job, by gosh I am going to do it!!!! Stay tuned, hopefully for some awesome shots!
