Egg Hunting

The Bunny is here. When I think of Easter I imagine Mallrats. Ear to ear does my smile grow thinking of Brody misdirecting his misfit friends. Leading to a revenge of simple porportions. Face it...you have been duped your whole life. Santa Claus, Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy they all became good stories. So when you see two brutes wailing on this sacred white childhood figure, its a statement. No longer with I stand quietly in the night. Draw a line in the sand saying, pass this you will no further go! The Man has just seen his last joke played on me. I figured it out. So I will continue wailing on that poor innocent bunny till I win.

Or till I have children and I find myself standing in line for a picture with Santa.

Damn it!

Walk

March Madness too much for you?

Its really about getting outside every once in a while. Taking a stroll through town, down a trail or just maybe the driveway can do the trick. Its not vest and long sleeve shirt

weather yet but its time to let that skin feel the sun.

A quick 30 minute walk through a sea of slush can be the greatest workout and give you a bit of head start on the winter

waist line that you are proudly toting around.

Once your done you will have the smile, that glow and that need to get back out and do it again. Take it from Christine, Every day is one more that is an adventure. Even if its just to the end of the driveway.

Enjoy your March Madness...

Walter Family Christmas

Alive, fashionable family looking for a good time!

The Walter family is one that knows how to have christmas. Friends and family fill the house through the season. On christmas eve when the crowds of people that have their fill and moved on to bed, the Walter group take it to the next level. A fews hours are taken to share the love they have for one another.

Stinky cheese fills the air like aroma therapy candles, green martinis are served as commonly as green beer on St.Patricks Day The house is perfectly decorated with fine touches found through out the house. Shrimp cocktails, cookies and a constant, "I'll take more wine please!" is joyfully sung.

This is the Walter Family Christmas!

"Don't hate, celebrate!"

I am man?

Simple question but does it have to be a serious one?! More than likely no. So I ventured out into the woods one mild winter day. With the Northern Michigan wild at my feet, I decided to drive back on a seasonal road. The xc skiers were upset but if they knew this shot was coming out with me I think they would consider different.

Simply put, an idea that worked out.

It took all of twenty minutes to get this shot and others. Thanks to Strobist.com and the amazing advice and constant flow of info this can be easliy done.

Scott, the model, was a trooper to head out with Shea and I. I did call him a wuss at one point but only to get him angry.....like a lumberjack.

Model Mayhem in the Woods

Model Mayhem is a great site for other photogs, models, hairstylists and the like to meet, colabirate and get work. Being in the Northern Michigan area, there isn't much modeling work being done compared to the west and east coast. That doesn't mean that one can't find that type of work in the north.

I had the pleasure to work with two young ladies that wanted to do some TFP (time for prints) work. It helps them build a portfolio and I get to shoot someone that whats to pose in front of the lens.

Its was a nice 500 yard hike through the woods. The location was a childhood hangout for the two ladies, Ashy and Michelle. They rebuilt this small bridge, made from cherry orchard palettes, back in the day and wanted to do a memory lane shoot.
