Chicago Workshop

Yesterday, I attended an all day workshop hosted by Britton Felber in downtown Chicago.

I had a blast, made some new photography friends and thoroughly enjoyed the time I got to spend learning more about photography.

We killed two birds with one stone by having Emily come along to model for the class, while at the same time, getting some senior pictures shot.

"The Bean" at about 6:45 in the morning.

I love the few minutes of warm sunrise light that we got at Millennium Park!

Isn't she beautiful?

It was great to meet some new people including Andrew.

Sashani was great at getting Emily posed just perfect.

I love all the happiness in this picture! 



Newport Hill Climb - Sneak Peek

Here is a one picture sneak peek of my day today at the Newport Hill Climb practice runs.  There was some pretty amazing classic cars there!   I will be posting some more pictures of the day sometime in the future.

Signs that make you go..."huh?"

Here are a few signs that I saw today at the auto show that made me scratch my head and take a second look.   I thought some of you might enjoy the humor in them as well.

Daddy's Girl

Day 30

Here is my last post for the 1 month challenge, and I am so glad that I got to end on a high note.

I had a fun time today, shooting family pictures for the Young family, they are such a neat group of people!

We tried a few "creative" shots, and I was pretty pleased with how this one turned out.

Day 29

I was totally thrilled this evening when I got a my first look at the sign that was put up in the Crown Point Strack & Van Til made with the photos I shot of well known places around Crown Point.

This is by far the largest print of my work so far, and it was fun to see it in such a prominent place.  I didn't do the design work for the sign, but I was pleased with how well the company that did the design put it together.

Day 28

We had a bunch of fun helping celebrate David and Cindy's birthdays this evening.  While we were there, I grabbed a couple of pictures of the birthday people for my daily entry.
