Holga Images Ironton

Mystery rolls. That is what we call rolls that don’t get labeled. It’s never work images (wedding) it’s our personal rolls from trips. Once they are mislabeled and sit for a few weeks you kind of forget about them. We spent some time in the darkroom the other day. What a bunch of fun. Lots of talking, lots of work, the smells of chemicals and the sound of running water. If you have never developed your own film, I suggest giving it a try. There is a lot of personal satisfaction from doing the process yourself.

I have a few rolls to scan but here is one that I really liked looking at on the lightbox.

Faith our Jack Russell

andy — Wed, 09 Mar 2011 20:11:25 +0000

We have shared Faith our jack russell before. She often is the one that we turn our camera’s on. We had her out the other day and I had a thought. We need to get this dog earning. She needs to learn our craft, and help the family out. So we went about strapping a Diana camera to her neck. A Diana camera is a plastic medium format camera. After some coaxing and treats I think the dream is dead. Adding Faith to the company is not going to happen. But lets talk about the positive. We still got some cute images of her that we can share.

WPPI Print Competition

andy — Thu, 10 Feb 2011 22:14:26 +0000

We have been diligently working on our Masterclass for WPPI, which is almost here. I can’t wait to see all the photographers from around the country that we have made friends with, and the new ones taking our class. I know many photographers are putting together their schedules for WPPI. I wanted to share one of the best educational experiences I have ever had as a photographer. We all know that that most of the experiences usually cost you. Well at WPPI watching the print competition is free with your registration. I have sat through them for the last 4 years and learned more in a few hours listening to the judges than any other activity I have done as a photographer. The judging will be Friday and Saturday you owe it to yourself to see this competition in action.

I also wanted to congratulate my wonderfully talented husband who is going to be one of the Print Judges at WPPI this year in the wedding category. I am so excited for him, what a wonderful experience.

Fine Art Series Colorado

andy — Sun, 05 Dec 2010 21:51:52 +0000

Ten weeks ago I shot a wedding close to Ouray, Colorado. I took some time to shoot some more film and got some really cool stuff. I love shooting old subjects and this old fire truck fits the bill. I love the color and texture of the image, what do you think? We have driven by this place a few times in our adventures and never had the time to stop. It’s a strip of antique shops with a lot of cool things to take pictures of. Kind of like a candy shop for a photographer. I will share more as I get some time to scan them. I still have 4 more rolls of fun.

I am thankful for a goat…

We celebrate so many different holidays throughout the year but Thanksgiving is one to make you stop and think. What are you thankful for? Who are you thankful for? And why do we wait until this one day of the year to be thankful for these things.

Andy & I are thankful for our families, our friends, our business and our amazing clients.

But, we are also thankful for…..

~ The amazing tea shop down the street

~ Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins

~ Seat warmers in our Jeep

~ Warm Chips & Salsa

~ A good friend’s new baby

~ Photo shoots with our dog

So, What are you thankful for?

Andy & I have family spread out in different places so we find ourselves driving to many dinners on the holidays. It’s always fun to catch up with family, hear their stories and of course share all of ours. The funny thing about Thanksgiving is all of the food and after all of that food you are presented with every kind of pie that can be made. Although I think this might be the first Thanksgiving I didn’t gorge myself and I mostly attribute that to the pet goat who joined us for dinner. I was totally distracted by her and of course the photographer in me took many pictures! Andy and I are always drawn to animals. We love them in all their variety. So today I am also thankful for farm animal photography!

Beautiful Colorado Sky

andy — Mon, 08 Nov 2010 00:56:08 +0000

We have been busy doing family portraits which is great for a lot of reasons. My favorite is catching up with old clients and watching their families grow. The second is it gets us out for some of this beautiful Colorado weather. We had 2 family sessions today and we ended the night with this scene. It was beautiful and makes you feel lucky. I thought you might enjoy seeing it incase you missed it.

Jack Russels

andy — Thu, 30 Sep 2010 05:27:15 +0000

Many of you know that we have a jack russel aka “faith”. She is even in our photo above. I saw this video and now I know we have been slacking with our education of faith. I am now wondering if we can teach her to take pictures. If you love dog’s I am sure you will love this video. Have fun.

Sporting the Cow Seat Covers

andy — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 19:44:25 +0000

We got oh about a dozen emails from friends saying hey. You forgot to share Angie’s most embarrassing cow story. For those that don’t know Angie and I started dating in high school. Angie drove a little white geo. You know the one, it had a few gerbils for a motor. She used to fill it up once a month. Well this little white Geo sported some really cool seat covers. Yes you guessed it. Faux cow seat covers. Someone, please check on me later this week to make sure I am still alive for telling the story?

To make things worse she now drives one of these, with leather seats. Don’t tell her apparently she hasn’t figured out where leather comes from?
