Time to share a second collection of photos from the Howard Family Photo Shoot from a few months back. The sun was super harsh that day. As it absolutely always seems to be. But I still think we managed to do some good work.
Next Formal Portrait Sunday will be another collection of senior pictures from Kyle.
The pictures in the folder Nine Emotions are from when I had the Original 9 pick what the considered what were the best representations of each of the 9 emotions from THE 9 EMOTIONS PROJECT. I didn’t say that they had to use everybody once. I put no limits on how many times they chose the same person or chose themselves or didn’t choose themselves. I was fascinated with what came back.

I was asked the other day (from when I wrote this, but from the time you are seeing this, it was months ago) by Elizabeth what I was going to do when I was done with THE TOWN SIGN PROJECT. I’m not saying it was an accusatory way, but it was kind of like, “is that it, are you out of ideas?”. And maybe I am out of ideas, because I have never really been satisfied that I was done with THE 9 EMOTIONS PROJECT. I did go on to photograph more people after the original 9. Bill, Logan, Johnathan, Nader, Alexis, Anders, Dawn, Brandon, Nate, Laura, Dae Hee, Bethany, and Michelle. But I feel like there needs to be more.
Some photo projects are left abandoned on the side of the road of life, like THE BEAVER MACHETE MASSACRE. But some, I think are worth picking out of the ditch. Dusting off and trying out again.
Problem is, these days, I’m pretty much a social pariah. I only see the same handful of people.
I see the same like five or six people when I got to work: Denise, Elizabeth, The Hof, Jesse, Joe, Kim, Michelle, and Ron.
I see the same like four people at my Monthly Movie Night: Anders, Jay, Jason, and Jesse.
I see Teresa after church for lunch.
I see Andy when we make soap.
Rinse and repeat. Five or six people. Over and over again. Don’t get me wrong. These are some pretty wonderful people. But it makes a project like this difficult to pick up again. However, maybe some day, I will fire it up again. But I will need to find new blood. I could revisit some of the originals, it has been 10 years after all. I don’t know. I’m just thinking out loud.
By adding these pictures to the Photography 139 Gallery, I was able to restore the following historic “An Artist’s Notebook” entry to its original glory:
Next Saturday’s walk down memory lane will involve a camping trip, at the very least.
It is time once again on Formal Portrait Sunday to share a collection of images from the The Junck Family Photo Shoot of 2021.
Next Sundays Formal Portrait Sunday will once again concentrate on the Howard Family Photo Shoot.
Time for another Formal Portrait Sunday. This Sunday we are revisiting Kyle’s Summer Photo Shoot:
Here are a few more of my favorites:
Next Sunday’s formal portrait will check back in on the Junck Family Photo Shoot.
The pictures in the folder 2011-06-04 were taken of the Challenger Program for the Boone Little League. I did the photography for the event for 3 years and then I believe, they stopped having the event. The Challenger Program was a program where kids that might not ordinarily have the opportunity to play baseball/softball are given that opportunity. It was a great program and I hope that I’m wrong that is doesn’t exist any more. Kids from all over central Iowa came to participate. It was one of my favorite events I’ve ever had the privilege to photograph. It is certain that somewhere a long the way the Boone Little League lost its way. I don’t know that it will every get it back, because unfortunately I don’t know how long the Little League will even continue to exist. However, that is an outsider’s perspective. Maybe it is doing great, it just doesn’t look like it from the cheap seats.
And yes, you did see both the Melhaus sisters in these pictures.

Next Saturday’s walk down memory lane will involve flowers.
It is time once again to share some of my favorite pictures from Jayton’s Senior Picture Photo Shoot. These were taken at Goeppinger Field.
Next Formal Portrait Sunday will feature Kyle again.
The pictures in the folder 2011-05-30 were of a photo shoot I had with Evie when she was just a few months old. I could do the math, but I’m just going to call it 9 months old.
Here are some of my favorites:

Several months back, I got together with the Baughers to do some family pictures for them. This is the second collection of images from the photo shoot:
Next Sunday’s formal photo shoot collection will be another collection from Jayton’s Senior Pictures.
This Formal Portrait Sunday comes from a photo shoot I did with the Stenslands. It was a pretty brief photo shoot, so I can include this in just one journal entry.
Here are some of my favorites from the day:
Next Sunday’s formal portrait collection will return to the photo shoot with Alexis’ family.
It is time for another Formal Portrait Sunday. This Sunday we are featuring a collection of Kyle’s Fall Photo Shoot.
Here are a few of my favorites:
Kyle recently was crowned Winter Formal King. Making the latest person I know to become royalty. I think I know 4 people that are royalty at this point in my life. At least, I can think of 4 people off the top of my head.
There is a plethora of Kyle photos left to share, but next Formal Portrait Sunday will involve the Stenslands.
