Because Nobody Knows What An Operated Foot Looks Like

January 17th, 2011 by

Sooo…since the end of the year is typically down time for us wedding photogs, I took the opportunity to have some long needed corrective surgery. In total, I’ve had two since November. On the whole, I really have to thank my surgeon, Dr. David S. Wolf because he really has gone above and far beyond [...]

My Thought Today 11.30.2010

November 30th, 2010 by

We are all just a sea of people. Each a particle of a very vast ocean. None too different from the rest. So why do we sometimes feel so disconnected? We all need, want, fear, love, cry, feel just the same. At any given moment, we are but a speck in a universe of echos, [...]

Dastardly Bug and a Possible Side Business

April 1st, 2010 by

I’m lucky enough (or unlucky, depending on your viewpoint) to only get really sick about twice per year. Usually, I’m fairly good at telling the bad ones, from the just annoying ones. Illnesses, that is. This time? I was not so good at it. In fact, I got a big, fat F for FAILURE. It [...]

SXSW and The Greatest Meetup of 2010

March 16th, 2010 by

Ok, I’m definitely biased. But few people have enriched my life lately in the way some of these folks have. If you don’t know him already, Chris Gillebeau is the guy that keeps the blogosphere buzzing with thoughts and projects for the “nonconformist.” Sounds scary? Dreaming big often is. But Chris has this particularly special [...]

Dear Kimmers, These past fours years have been nothing short of a big ride! Who would have thought that a stint in crazy town would have bloomed into one amazing friendship! We’ve said it many times, but I can’t help but continue to marvel at the great things this beautiful life has for us if [...]

The New Painter

May 13th, 2009 by

After three looong years, Matisse finally has a new buddy. They’re in cahoots already…their mission? To overdose me with their unstoppable cuteness! Meet Renoir: Reni, for short. Amazingly, at just 12 weeks, she’s as good as potty trained. Hooray!! We feel like we won the lottery… …except she’s pretty darn good at keeping us up [...]

Gaping Hole

May 4th, 2009 by

I spent the better part of last week entertaining my cousin who was visiting from Chile. We explored various restaurants around town, gamed it up at D&B, went shopping, visited the Rice campus, saw Mates of State and Sunbears live, visited family, and mostly vegged around the house catching up on the past eight years [...]

A long time friend of mine sent me this in an email today. It’s one of the most positive things I’ve come across of late. Join the movement at www.playingforchange.com

Bittersweet Symphony – On the Verge of Being Committed

April 3rd, 2009 by

So I’m listening to Pandora (more on that later), and one of my very favorite songs comes up: The Verve’s Bittersweet Symphony. I haven’t heard that song in ages! I can’t help but let the melody sweep me into song at the top of my lungs and at the distress of Matisse’s poor ears. As [...]
