Birthday Number One
A few weeks back I attended Evie’s birthday party. I didn’t take many photos as everybody else there had at least 1 camera and so my photo coverage of the event would have seemed excessive. Seriously, Evie has her own paparazzi. However, I did take a few photos of her… Read More »Birthday Number One
The Archives: Edition Forty
These pictures come from backup/Old My Pictures: I had forgotten that I had done the wedding photography for Jesse’s mom’s wedding. Jay designed this movie poster.

Personal Photo Project of the Week #88
Hush My mums bloomed later this year than most mums I saw around town. I think it might be their location in my yard, but it makes me think that when I tear out all the horrible evergreen bushes in my front yard next year that I might replace them… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #88
Meet the Bennetts
On the Sunday before Labor Day I hosted a little Bennett Family Reunion. Although none of the Fort Dodge Bennetts attended, I think it was a rousing success. It was the first reunion of its kind in at least 20 years. I hope that we can have another one next… Read More »Meet the Bennetts

Slice of Life Vol. 71
Some pretty sweet pictures of my uncles not wearing shirts in this volume! I wonder how long that flag pole lasted because it couldn’t have been too many more years before they built the addition to the high school that destroyed Blair Park.
Giant Steps
I hate the phrase “things happen for a reason” more than I hate any other phrase in the world. That doesn’t mean that I don’t necessarily believe in fate, but for the most part I don’t like fate. Its plans run contrary to my plans, no matter how hard I… Read More »Giant Steps

The Archives: Edition Thirty-Seven
These pictures came from backup/Old My Pictures/UnHingd These are a mixture of concert pictures from an Iowa State game, practice and recording their first demo.
