I couldn’t be more frustrated with the whole scene. Yesterday was the end of our seventh week of working out with our trainer, Troy. Time to retest our body fat percentages. Ugh. Even though I woke up late from last night’s crazy martini party, I was still in a decent mood. Until now that is. [...]
We are exhausted! We are a busy family with a crazy schedule at times, but somehow it doesn’t seem exhausting. Seems okay…actually a lot of fun. But three days ago, we bought our first puppy (mind you, both Brian and I did NOT grow up with dogs and feel completely out of our league here!). [...]
We had the BIGGEST photography group ever last night! I’m thinking we had close to forty people. There were people standing behind all the people you see sitting, as well as coming off the stairwell, going out doorways–it was crazy great! Our lawyer, Jennifer Wing, came and talked about the essentials for protecting your small [...]
Every month we have a special meeting for photographers. If you’re in the neighborhood, join us! People have come from Idaho, Oregon and of course, Washington. But if your visiting from out of town and want to jump in on the fun, we’d love to have you! What do we do? We start with wine [...]
Just in case you don’t know our family well, I should probably clarify the last blog so people don’t misunderstand. The kids did not actually take any martini sips, BUT they did eat a ton of dessert, and they did dance on the couch (and the dancing on the couch is often a daily thing [...]
Last night we had our monthly photography meeting (PUG-Pictage User Group), and we decided to celebrate the season being more than half over with yummy martinis; Green Apple Martinis, Lemon Drop Martinis, Dirty Martinis…you name it, Brian mixed it up. (Just like Tom Cruise in Cocktail! ) It was our first and is for sure [...]
Last night was the BEST! We had our monthly photographer’s meeting, and Ira Gershoff from Leather Craftsman flew up from CA to show us the latest albums. They are all breath taking! Loved and wanted them ALL! But on top of seeing the albums, it was so cool to listen to Ira share. He’s been [...]
Do you have a blog and wonder how you can increase your blog’s traffic? The other night we had the privilege of having Steve Makofsky come and speak to our PUG group on blogging. His website, www.furrygoat.com, gets 100,000 hits per week. Amazing! Here’s a video with some of the highlights from the night. With [...]
A year ago, Brian and I volunteered to host the monthly PUG (Pictage User Group) meetings at our home. Our vision was to provide a place for photographers to come together, find support, learn some new tricks, be encouraged, and most of all have fun! Brian and I had no idea what wonderful friends and [...]
This last Monday night, 25 photographers from all over the Seattle area got together for dinner at the yummy Bizzarro Italien Cafe in Wallingford. My best friend from college, Jamie Irene, is one of the owners of this great place. She and Jack bought it almost a year ago (and they also own all the [...]

He was sitting next to me. The plane was headed to San Diego. It was the middle of December, and I felt so exhausted I chose not to introduce myself—just close my eyes and rest. And then the storm came. It was the worst storm that month for San Diego. [...]
