The first title of the Partakers.Net blog was, “Killing Time: Pity the person who has not yet begun to live for eternity.” With that mindset, it’s been somewhat difficult to deal with the fact that, as a photographer, my product is pieces of paper. How long does paper last? Most of...
Sometimes there’s just no other perspective than the one that has you flat on your belly, face in the grass making friends and strangers alike wonder what in the world is so compelling that you’d make a fool of yourself in public like that. Nothing wrong with the end of the fence shots. Nothing wrong...
I had the great pleasure of photographing Baby M, not just once, but twice. First a spur of the moment shoot with grandma, who was babysitting when I stopped by on an errand, and again the following week with Mom and Dad.
This morning we awoke to a world of sparkling white fluff covering everything. Luckily I got off work in time to throw on a hat and coat, hop in the car, and capture a bit of it.
With much fear and trepidation, I’ve finally ordered my first box of really big paper for the new printer. The guys over at Luminous Landscape gave it such a good review, and the price was reasonable, so I figured it was about time to give it a try. I’ve done some 8 x...

Well, the year is quickly drawing to a close. Fall color is quickly flying past, and it’s time to take look back at the “New Year’s resolution post” and check progress. - Get Organized. Nope. Not an inch of progress. I did manage to give the site a face lift this...
Seeing stuff like this always makes me wish I had the decorating gene. I don’t. Boy do I don’t!!! I see nice stuff in the store but never think it might look nice in my house. I see nice arrangements in other people’s houses and never think to try to do...
Okay, so I’ve been spending way more time out with the camera instead of sitting in front of the computer, and a whole month has passed. I can’t say I’m all that disappointed. But since the subject is Green at I ♥ Faces this week, here’s a little green.
why my shot didn’t work. I might have avoided this very simple mistake if I had been able to read G. Dan Mitchell’s post on Monday instead of today, but that just gives me another excuse to go out and try again. (A real burden, I know). So what happened? Well, I had been dragging my husband all...
