Happy Thanksgiving

I hope everyone had a wonderful thanksgiving with friends and family.  Being the chef of the house, I was in heaven prepping meals and cooking for two days.  And, lucky for me, the unspoken rule is whoever cooks doesn't have to clean.

Now, it's quiet around here and I'm getting ready for Katie and Pat's wedding at the Biltmore Hotel.  A little morning inspiration from the the Strobist and Ben Chrisman, wrestling and car races with my boys and coffee with my wife... I'm very thankful for this beautiful life.

All the best.

Day of Design with Barclay Butera

I recently had the pleasure of shooting an event at the Arizona Design Center with guest speaker Barclay Butera.  I find all creative fields fascinating and am particularly interested in interior design, having studied it before falling in love with photography.  Barclay is amazing, not only in his visions and the scope of work he's accomplished at such a young age, but in his persona.  He has a lot of pride in his work and especially the relationships with those he's creating for.  And, I'm guessing he still has at least a few more decades of ideas to treat us with.
