It's that time again

So it's winding down to the end of the spring season of soccer here in the east, and that means it's time for team soccer portraits. Each team in our league is responsible for finding a photographer to capture their team for memory sake. I've been very fortunate to have built a great word of mouth over the last couple years. The credit for that goes to all the people that have spread my name. It started with taking my daughter's first pictures, and then snowballing to needing to keep a schedule to keep them all organized. I have met so many great people doing what I do, and to get to see some of the kids grow over the years. There are a handful of kids that haven't had anyone but me to take their soccer pictures. And to me, that is a great feeling! To know that they trust me to provide them with quality portraits to remember their younger years playing the great sport of soccer.

And just because I would feel guilty for not providing any actual pictures, here are some of my daughter's soccer portraits I've taken over the years.
The first one I just took today, for the Spring 2010 season.

And this last one jumps a couple years to her very first season. She was so excited to start playing. Spring 2008

Color Me Katie!!

I'm not sure if any of you have seen this wonderful blog, but you have to go right now! Ok so maybe not RIGHT now, you're on mine. But after I show you some pics I took from which I was inspired by her ideas.

A little info on Katie: She is a freelance photographer in Brooklyn, New York that has such a great sense of fun and color. Her blog is so refreshing to visit! I catch myself checking back several times a day, on the off chance she has posted anything new since my last visit.

Ok so on to my post. Here are a few pictures I took the other day from inspiration from her blog.

I started off by printing these eyes

I then cut them out, attached tape to them, and adhered them to random objects around the house to make inanimate objects seem to have a life of their own.

Ok so now that you've seen mine, here's her link. http://colormekatie.blogspot.com/. Go check her out! You won't be disappointed!

Just starting out

So I've finally made the leap. It seems as though everyone in cyber-space has a blog. I know that I will most likely not be able to keep up with it daily. I don't have enough exciting things going to report. But from time to time, I'll add recently taken portraits, design ideas, or just simply things that inspire me.

So for my first addition into my little digital piece of the wide world web, here is some of my recent work. Enjoy :)
