I recently had the pleasure of doing some engagement photos for Bethany and Dae Hee.
Here are a few of my favorites from the photo shoot.
I’m pretty sure that there might be another photo shoot in the future.
Engaged!

Rebels – 2013
Unfortunately I didn’t have access to many columbines this year. One of my Mom’s group of columbines didn’t come up at all this year. So I made do.
The rest of the Rebels – 2013 Series:
I would also like to welcome Tim Tucker. He is the newest person to show his exquisite taste by becoming the latest person to sign up for an email subscription to the blog. I should point out that for many of you, this isn’t the Tim Tucker you are thinking about right now. It is an entirely different Tim Tucker. But for a few of you, this is the Tim Tucker you are thinking about right now.
Glad we could get that cleared up.

This collection includes Teresa’s first day home from the hospital.
You better like Teresa pictures, because there are lots more coming…
The Floor
After years and years of talking about it, I finally removed my carpet from my great room and finished the floor while I was on a vacation. It was a multi-day project that involved several days of just removing furniture and I’m still in the process of putting furniture back in, although some of the furniture has been downsized.
Here are some photos of the process:

I’d like to thank my amazing floor crew. In particular, Carla and Jesse that helped a ton. Carla came over at midnight to help put on the last coat of finish, which was pretty amazing. But also:
- Derrick
- Willy
- Jay
- Dawn
- Dawn’s Kevin
- Teresa
My Mom was also a big help by giving Naima and I a place to crash while the finish dried and the fumes were at their most toxic.
Now that this project is complete (almost), the painting of the house seems so much more doable. Plus, it will require a larger crew. Not that I’m trolling for volunteers…

Planted
This Personal Photo Project was to photograph the flowers my Mom and I planted at the Photography 139 Studio that I had purchased from the Northwest Greenhouse.
The rest of the Planted Series:
Most of my flower beds are getting pretty full. I need to start digging up more ground. Fortunately, Naima is a tremendous digger. Just in all the wrong locations.

Still Laughing – 2013
Once again I guessed wrong on when to make my annual trip to Pella. Not only was next to nothing blooming, the lighting wasn’t ideal. However, I still think I put in some work.
More from the Still Laughing – 2013 Series:
My Mom and Teresa accompanied me on the trip this year.
Tomorrow (nudge, nudge, wink, wink) more from the Still Laughing – 2013 Series.

You can tell by the size of the present that Teresa is opening who the spoiled child in the family must have been!

Observation
I have wanted to visit the Cordova Observation Tower ever since I’ve known that it existed. Recently I finally got the chance, but because I wasn’t expecting to go there, I didn’t bring the lens I wanted to use to photograph it. I made do.
The rest of the Observation Series:
The tower is 106 feet tall and climbing the steps is definitely a cardio workout. At least it is for me!
