Measured in Florets

Raising the kiddo has really made the passage of time very tangible. Click the photo below to read more.

Today is the first of September and I cannot help feeling like Summer went by too quickly. As we waited to pick up a lunch order on our way to the park, I finally captured an image of her blowing a dandelion seed that I like. All summer she’s been huffing and puffing these seeds when she finds them. Is it just coincidence then that this photo sums up how I feel about the passed Summer? ~ 09-01-2010

I just completed reprocessing photos from 2010. Freja and I would spend hours playing in our backyard during those hot summer days. Seeing those photos reminded me of how special it was to be able to just relax with the kid, and enjoy being home. You can see a few shots by clicking the photo below.

What a Great Easter

Having a little kid is what makes Easter morning so fun. Freja and Teri love to color eggs, and then the bunny loves to hide them. Freja's hunt for eggs makes her so happy! Click the photo below to see more about the event.

The Easter Bunny seems to sneak into our home, takes the eggs the kid colored the day before, and then hides them all over the house! Freja loves to hunt for them, collecting them in her little basket.

A New Level

Freja advanced to a new belt level last night. We're very proud of her, and more importantly, she seems proud of her accomplishment as well. You can read a little more about it, and see a few shots by clicking the photo below.

Octobaby

Yesterday someone reminded me about back when Freja was always drawing octopi, and then telling stories about them. I remembered this video I'd shot of her when she was three, and imagined our home was being invaded by a GIANT OCTOPUS!

You can see the clip here.

Mommy & Daddy Time!

A combination of being stuck in the house for weeks, and Teri having been gone for a week, illnesses in both girls, and not getting out to shoot anything has made me sort of GRUMPY! We've come up with a solution though! We've planned a "Daddy & Mommy Date!" It's amazing how having an excursion with your wife planned, sans-kid, can improve your outlook!

SO thankful we found a sitter! I can't wait to go!

Frew Mill Fireball

In 2009 I had a chance to work with an amazing fire-performer. We traveled to a rock formation I've played around since I was a kid. There's a small waterfall feature where a tiny, spring fed stream trickles off the rocks. On rainier days it also gets some drainage from the hemlock forest that surrounds it.

There, he blasted fireballs up at the rocks, and the tiny trickle of water for a while. In the pitch darkness it was a bit of challenge to find the right exposure settings, but doing so was still a LOT easier than what he was doing. Precariously perched up in the rocks, blasting fireballs into the underbelly of an overhang, I thought his face would melt.
