"What do they got? A lot of sand⠀ We got a hot crustacean band⠀ Each little clam here⠀ Know how to jam here⠀ Under the sea"⠀ - Sebastian⠀ ⠀ Here is another one from Portland's Mermaid Parade. Every good parade needs a marching band, and this group brought up the rear. It made my life, as pretty much every marching band does.⠀ ⠀ Tonight my little family is attending our first high school football game since we moved to Oregon. You better believe their will be lots of dancing happening in the stands, mostly from me and the Boy, but hopefully our friends join in as well. Any other marching band fans out there?⠀ ⠀ #pentax645n #fuji160c #pushed1stop (at Tom McCall Waterfront Park)

"About your hair, you needn't care,⠀ You look beautiful all the time"⠀ -the Kooks⠀ ⠀ I'm just going to leave this here. You're welcome.⠀ ⠀ #pentax645n #fuji160c (at Arcadia Beach State Recreation Site)

"Shine, shine, shine on⠀ Yes⠀ Won't you shine, shine on"⠀ -the Kooks⠀ ⠀ Wonderful people near Phoenix, I will be in you area near the end of October and I have mini sessions for you! I rarely have this option, so jump on it. These are perfect for getting photos for annual Christmas cards, families with busy schedules that can't accommodate a full session, and families that just need a few updated photos to send to grandparents. Also, if we are being honest, this is for those families where the kids and dads can maybe tolerate being photographed for 30 minutes 😂⠀ ⠀ What are the details for these minis? They are $350 and include 30 minutes of fun at an outdoor location (TBD) and 5 high resolution digital files. Should you need more images or prints, you are more than welcome to buy those through the online gallery of your session. ⠀ ⠀ October 27 - 2 afternoon minis⠀ October 28 - 4 afternoon minis⠀ ⠀ Email [email protected] to book your session today!⠀ ⠀ #yashicamat124 #fuji160c (at Papago Park)

"Once there was a way,⠀ to get back homeward,⠀ Once there was a way,⠀ to get back home⠀ Sleep pretty darling do not cry,⠀ and I will sing a lullaby"⠀ - the Beatles⠀ ⠀ This pup watches over her owner who has Alzheimer's. It is one of the sweetest relationships I have ever seen. She watches over him, and alerts his wife when he gets up to wanders in the night and help track him down when he loses his way. She is one of the reason he still lives at home. It's stories like this that make my heart explode with love for a God that provides blessings in the most unexpected ways.⠀ ⠀ In other news, if you know of a small hypoallergenic dog (already house trained) that needs a new home, I'm in search of my own miracle dog. ⠀ ⠀ #pentax645n #fuji160c #pushed1stop

"Years they come and go⠀ But today is here to stay⠀ I said I know⠀ I know where you're coming from"⠀ - Matt & Kim⠀ ⠀ Little kids, and seagulls, live in the here and now. They are not so stressed about the passage of time, but they are very into what tasty snacks they get to eat for lunch. Having that perspective, even for a little bit of time, is so freeing. I admire that trait a little, and it lends to endless possibilities at a photo session. At least until the hanger sets in.⠀ ⠀ If you want to give yourself the opportunity to just let go and be in the present, and have visual evidence that it happened (I'm looking at you, overworked moms), then shoot me an email (link in bio). We can plan a magical photo adventure of wonder and delight. Bonus points if your grand adventure includes the ocean.⠀ ⠀ #pentax645n #fuji160c #pushed1stop⠀ (at Cannon Beach, Oregon)
