I met Russ about 11 years ago while in college. Both of us were in the marching band together at the UW, but we sat next to each other in basketball band for about 3 years. Although we had very different courses of study, we always got along and had a great time together.
(In fact, [...]
It seems as though sleeping in my own bed at home has become a luxury. Right after getting picked up from the airport on Thursday, we headed straight to Ocean Shores, WA to enjoy a couple of days on the beach. Well, I should say that Maggie and I enjoyed time on the beach while [...]
1. Vegas is expensive. More so than Disney World or England.
2. Wear comfortable shoes… there is a lot of walking involved.
3. $40 does not go very far in the slot machines.
4. To be early is to be on time; to be on time is to be late; to be late is to be left. When [...]
Just a quick few notes before I dash off for another round of parties…
Today was my 4th day in Vegas and I am having an amazing journey. I’ve taken tons of classes, walked through the massive trade show, eaten and partied with both old and new friends. I’m having an amazing time living on 4 [...]

I bet you thought I’d post some pictures from my shoots yesterday at Deception Pass huh??
Well, that will have a wait; Steve is hard at work putting the finishing touches on those photographs to share later on this week. But Jason, Maggie and I had a fun adventure to La Push, WA today. We picnic’d [...]
I’ve mentioned that I love Facebook before. But it is so much fun re-connecting with old friends and acquaintances I’ve known throughout high school, college, and then my professional working life. There is this cool “25 Random Facts” tag going around where you list random personality facts, traits, or life goals. I absolutely love reading [...]
The run-down of my very busy week…
