Wordless Wednesday

....well, almost wordless. Moments like these I christen Job's Peak "Storm King..." It's a direct steal from Anne's cloud-engulfed mountain in L.M. Montgomery's "Anne of Windy Poplars," but it's so fitting. Forgive the near-plagiarism?

Learning Curve

"Delicious Autumn! My very soul is wedded to it. If I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking successive Autumns." ~George Elliot

It's a season of learning. "Learning what?" you ask.... Well, listing may be my best bet here:

1) Blogging. How can something with a name that sounds like the creature from the Black Lagoon's favorite pastime, be so - well, un-lagoon-like? It's downright whimisical!

2) Taking an interest and transitioning into a business (i.e. portraiture). Can it be called a business if it's something you can't get enough of?

3) Using the click-of-a-shutter to capture stories along with the faces in the pictures. It's a challenge, but an amazing one.

Hmmmm.... seems that list of 3 things felt longer in my head.

Anyhow, Autumn's golden light and color-splashed leaves are beckoning the shutterbug in me. I'd love some more portrait practice while this transient gem of a season lasts, and I'm looking for some willing "guinea pigs" to give a portrait-package break to in exchange for signing a friendly photo release to let me use your images in my portfolios, on my website, and perhaps for advertising. What do you say? There are still some available weekday evenings and weekend spots available; if you'd like to book a session... shoot me an email!

Happy October!
