The weekend in pictures

Once again, it is late Sunday night and I am watching a football game and updating my blog.  The weekend was great, just too short as always.  Below are some examples of what we saw followed by a few portraits I did for friends.

Now for the portraits.  We ventured out to West Overton village and found some nice spots for pictures.  This was my first time doing portraits here and I was pleasantly surprised.  I hope to go back.

That’s it for now.  Until next time.

A whirlwind few weeks

The past few weeks have been crazy.  There was a week spent at the beach for vacation, followed immediately with a 5 day business trip and within hours of being at home from that, a camping trip to finish off the weekend.  Needless to say, updating the site has been a low priority.  Here are a few shots for now though.
