Craig and Brooke rehearsal dinner

Thursday, October 16th, 2008 by some dude

Sarah hired me to take pictures at her friends’ rehearsal dinner, as her wedding gift to them. I think I got some good pictures. I didn’t know what I was going to do without the usual ceiling to bounce a flash off of … forced some creativity. It’s fun and a relief when I can get the flash to work for me nicely.

Coati

Tuesday, August 5th, 2008 by some dude

Four coati babies that Garbanzobeans was coati-sitting. They are related to raccoons, but looked to me like a monkey-dog-racoon-bear hybrid. I took these a few weeks ago. One of them has since died, sadly, but I think the others are doing fine.

Sunday, June 22nd, 2008 by some dude

Mitch’s parents were kind enough to have us over for their annual crawfish cookout eatathon. Deeelicious fun. Below are all the things Bubba forgot you can do with shrimp, except with crawfish.[This post is rated M for Mature].

Also, the band Birdlips has filed an improvement to the original jowler with the addition of a fist to the scene. The knockout jowler. Unfortunately another local band Straight Punch to the Crotch failed to incorporate this improvement in their versions, even though Punch is in their name.

We built a chicken coup

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008 by some dude

Chix Coup-7116

Luke and Katie decided to get chickens. Pet chickens. Not for human consumption. So Luke, Strongo, Amie, Laura, and I converted an old shed in their back yard into a luxury chicken condo. I mostly watched. Luke’s classified description:

PRICE SLASHED $200! New chicken coop! Stunning new 1 bedroom, bathroom-everywhere contemporary coop set on a quiet lane within walking distance of a chicken wire fence and cat that wants to eat your face. This sensational home offers a luxury sun splashed interior with soaring cathedral ceilings, balconies, oversized windows and gleaming pine shaving floors. The gourmet country kitchen enjoys a feeder dangling from an old nail on the ceiling. The oversized owner’s suite has a walk in old cat carrier full of the same pine shavings. This residence also has a private mailbox, no heat and no A/C. The private back yard patio offers an ideal spot for family fun and summer cook-outs. $200

VDM pictures

Monday, April 14th, 2008 by some dude

Vicky asked me to take some pictures for a Virginia Discovery Museum event yesterday. Got a couple good pictures. I am so slow at downloading, organizing, and uploading pictures…I haven’t put any others up yet. And now I’m two weddings behind on pictures, after Nathan and Corenia’s on Saturday.

I got a photo on Yahoo!’s year in review!

Saturday, December 29th, 2007 by some dude

Yahoo! News picked one of my VA Tech pictures for their 2007 Best of You Witness. Neat. And the Best Of is linked from the Yahoo! News front page! (It’s a tiny link over in the right column, but it’s still linked from their front page!)
