I had the pleasure of photographing Kelly Aspen yesterday. Kelly is an up-and-coming country music artist with major label interest. She lives in Denver, CO but was in town recording vocals for her CD. From what I heard of the early mix, she's got a lot of talent... and the production level of the CD is very high. (Well, you know I'm a musician, too, right?)

She was super easy to work with... a very sweet, fun, down-to-earth person. I hope to work with her again after she becomes famous!

Here are a couple of images from the session...

Sometimes, while you're editing pictures, you fail to notice a really nice image. I had some time to kill this morning and decided to look through the photos that are on my laptop computer. I found this beautiful photo that I hadn't noticed before.

I love the light and the feeling of intimacy in this photo of Elizabeth and her horse...

I have a really bright alarm clock on the nightstand next to my bed. On Friday night as I stumbled to bed at 2:00am, I wadded up a t-shirt and put it over my alarm clock so the room would be as dark as possible.

When I awoke, I was staring at this porcelain-looking female face in the form of my t-shirt.

Now, I'm not saying it's as good as the Nun Bun or even the Holy Toast... just that it's interesting.

Before you start your pilgrimage to my house... I have to tell you that the t-shirt is in the clothes hamper where it just looks like a wadded up t-shirt.

This is Jack. I shot a portrait session with him yesterday (Saturday) afternoon. He had a lot of energy and was soooo easy to photograph. These are some of my favorite shots from our session...

I've posted some beautiful pictures of Alonna, now it's time for Earl to get some time in the spotlight...

I'm editing photos for Alonna and Earl, getting ready to print their proofs. I came across this image today that was taken during their first dance. Wow. You can just feel the intensity of their love.

Being able to share in a moment like this and record it for All Time is why I love my job!

I was contacted by Helen Hovey of the Sommet Center to ask if they could use some of the photos from Alonna's reception for promoting their facilities.

With Alonna's approval, they will include a flyer that I created for distribution with their promotional packets. The flyer will feature photos taken at the Sommet Center during Alonna's reception.

I think that's pretty cool!

...and got some really good tomatoes. They have plenty, in case you want to go get some!
