Go turn on the telly and turn it to 7 or 4 and get your local news.

For the Cause


A stroll down the TART Trail...
Oneupweb is at it again. Despite the worlds shrinking bank accounts and spending money an idea from the past this company is reaching out.
Combining their efforts with Tom's Food Market on the west side of Traverse City, MI Oneupweb is donating food to Sal's Kitchen, a Salvation Army Food Pantry, with a total dollar amount rounding to $9000.00. Canned Tuna, soup, pears, instant rice, oats and even Mac-n-Cheese with be picked up at the open space by Sal's Kitchen.
The hard work of the event was done by all 36 Oneupweb employees. Each pushed a cart full of food from Tom's to the Open Space. My hat is off to the hard working employees of Oneupweb!

The Big Traverse City Game


Rain, cold temperatures, screaming fans....
Friday night lights were blazing bright at Thirlby field. No surprise that the cold temperatures and rain didn't scare anyone away. The stands were full to the brim and the end zones packed of fans getting soaked watching a run away train.
Traverse City Central's players charged the field and kept the momentum moving throughout the game. The TC West Titans made a stand in the second half but wasn't enough to conquer the Trojans.
The new rivalry is becoming the fall event of the year. If you missed it this year check out the Traverse City Record-Eagle for the full story.
Its time to carve a pumpkin!

The Colors have Arrived


More Color
I was able to get away from the computer this week and try and get some shots of the color that is all around Northern Michigan. Its hard to decide which light gives the better results. The color radiates when sun is directly on the foliage. No doubt about it that the colors will "pop" like no other.
Ever gone out and looked at the fall colors with a nice overcast day? Try it! The moody colors will make you forget about the hot days of July, BBQ, jet skiing and make you realize its Fall!

Fall Portraits


Great time for outdoor portraits
Fall is the perfect time for portraits. The temperature is accommodating for a wide range of styles of dress. The seasonal colors always lend to amazing backgrounds. One feature that isn't thought of is the up coming holidays.
As the year closes out your daily planner fills. Holiday parties, shopping, long lines, kids school events, traveling all make getting a simple portrait that mom and dad would love that much harder.
That simple portrait can become a personalized greeting card used for one or all the holidays. Check out your local photographers to find out how cheap it is to create such a valuable gift.

Great Chance

Sometimes is about shooting...



Today I was able to take a break from editing a video that I am working on to shoot with some local talent. While working with seasoned models on paying jobs is always a treat. Its refreshing to work with new talent that are open for something different. Natalie (above) and Ashley couldn't stop laughing during the shoot. But when they did there was some great images to capture. Now, Natalie and Ashley don't want to be models but is a chance to do something different. Change the pace in life a bit and trying something on the other side of the coin. For me it was an ablility to grab my camera and freshin up the portfolio.
