FAVORITE THINGS

Aside from cameras and all things photographic, there are a few other things that capture my attention. One of them is the very distinctive Polish Bunzlauer pottery, which has been imported into this country since 1991, when Communism in eastern Europe started to fall apart. Since a local pottery (Maxwell's, in Portland, Maine) always has a good and varied supply, I have been collecting it for a few years now. People know it makes a good Christmas gift, and this year I was fortunate to receive this Christmas tree, lit from within by a tealight candle:

MERRY, MERRY

Miss L has the right idea - wait patiently for S. Claus to arrive. Of course, there isn't much else she can do at this stage. Nevertheless, she's cute enough to get lots of presents from everybody. Have a very Merry Christmas, little one!

And I'd also like to wish a Merry Christmas to all my friends. May your holidays be all you hope they will be, and may the New Year bring lots of joy and good fortune!

I CAN'T WAIT.......

For snow!

We all know it's coming; it may be early or late, but we're going to get it, aren't we? A lot of people think when the temperature drops and the snow flies, that we location photographers close up shop and hunker down until spring. Not so - we're out there taking photographs of all the beauty nature can throw at us. We're also taking portraits of those enthusiastic souls who have just too much fun in the snow:


Therefore, I'm making an offer to those who need a little prodding to get outdoors: this winter, the first 5 sessions held outdoors in the snow will automatically include an additional $25 print credit. So pray for snow, get the family together, and let's have some fun! See my website for complete contact information!
