Had a lovely fall weekday morning meeting these folks at the park to take some updated family pictures! They love this park where their active kiddo can run around the playground and ride his bike while his dad does practice runs for his marathons. I am quite honored that said bike now has CSP bat stickers on it. :D I love these folks and have worked with them for a while now and they’re SUCH good people raising an incredible kid and I’m glad that there’s folks like them in my community and in the world. We blew bubbles, drew Halloween chalk art, did mid-air flips, and went down slides, all the while taking pictures of the love they have for life and each other. Enjoy this fun little session.

it’s been a busy 1.5 weeks and it will continue for several more… but all good exciting! consulting this afternoon, editing, etc. i have to go get my car inspected sometime this week which, although not expensive, is just a general pain. i then i have to re-register it w/ the state of north carolina, blah blah blah. we are finally approved to shoot at American Tobacco in durham this friday for our trash the dress session! i can’t wait to have some of those up here and in the portfolio. my friend steve from florida is also coming up on friday to hang out w/ us over the weekend here in raleigh. steve is a friend of mine from college (point park university in pittsburgh) who recently moved from  pittsburgh to the orlando area. we’re excited to show him around raleigh this weekend. :)

here’s some more photographs from the jennifer and travis shoot!

camping was awesome! more to come on that later. however, being in the woods for 2.5 days can get really old really fast as you get continually rained on, swat hornets away from your fire-burnt food, and run up an incredible sleep debt due to all the shuffling noises outside your small overheated tent at night. we had a great time, but boy… i’m glad to be back in the world of showers, internet access, and microwaves. i’ll be posting pictures from our journey later this week.

here’s some photos from my session with travis and jennifer – a really adorable couple who were great to work with. they let me put them in all sorts of perilous jungle-gym situations while being gawked at by a bunch of 5-10 year olds manning the playground. you guys are awesome! :)
