Signs of the Time

In the small, artsy town of Occoquan near my home, signs hanging from store fronts.

Looks Can Be Deceiving

This was outside a craft store near my home. The ironic thing was that the store owner was not very welcoming at all. She glared at us the entire time we were in there, demanded we put our cameras away, and never smiled.

Photo Shoot

I went to a small town near my home with some gorgeous girls today, and they weren't shy being models for me to practice on. Our favorite places to shoot? A narrow alley, and a brightly colored shingled shack.

And then we ended with a fun one. It looked like a surf shack, so they all went surfing.

When I was up at Forest Grove, Oregon for my MFA residency, I took one afternoon to walk around with my camera. The trees there are gorgeous and diverse.

Who Says Lightening Never Strikes Twice?

Taken from our backyard on Sunday night. The storm was wicked! Wish my camera could take pictures of sound!


My husband says our tree line looks like the United States, which would make the lightening the Mississippi.
