We interrupt our regular programming to say

Hit me with your best shot

So, I’m back. I know, I usually have a guest blogger fill in when I go to the bathroom, but I didn’t think too many of you were missing me, especially since you, apparently, were all at the gym this week. Or at least I’m assuming that’s why I can’t get a parking spot there,…

I’m always delighted to photograph Other People’s Kids, because mine? Well, it is a rare day I get more cooperation than this: Which is why I don’t take their Christmas photo. She does, thank goodness. But Other People’s Kids? Another story all together! My Best Shot? I can’t pick. You decide.

Maine in pictures. Part 2.

Soooo, after shooting like a crazy person all fall, I have about eleventy billion photos to post. Pull up a chair and stay awhile, won’t you? JUST KIDDING. I did just notice that I said Maine, Part 1 a few weeks ago, which suggests there ought to be a part 2. And there is. Ellen…
