Happy Labor Day!

I can scarcely believe it is already that time again... Summer 08 has been really fabulous... I'm still photographing every night, so although the summer season will officially end this weekend, my season will continue for quite a while...

Earlier this month I photographed a delightful family from Las Vegas, their youngest son, after hearing me say how adorable he was (how adorable both boys were in fact) told me quite matter of factly, "I'm attractive to anyone!". How we laughed. And of course, he was right!!! Out of the mouths of babes...

I'm not quite ready for the summer wrap-up, but I hope you all have a fabulous weekend, Yarmouth doesn't start school until next week, so we are hanging on to these last precious moments... Enjoy!

whale watching

Living on the Cape, sometimes we don't take the time to enjoy the Cape... But last weekend, I had a rare day off from photographing families and seniors on the beach and weddings all over, and spent the day with Adriana... Hyannis Whale Watch very generously donated a child's ticket to the Yarmouth town libraries reading program, so just for reading books (which she loves to do), Adriana got a free whale watch... and what a whale watch it was! On some whale watches the whales sleep, sometimes they dive, sometimes they're just living their lives, and on some they breach - jumping out of the water, in our case, over and over again... Our whales were not sleeping, or being boring in any way at all, they were showing off for us so fantastically, being their absolute gorgeous selves! We were so lucky to be on such a journey... Such an amazing experience, nature at it's finest... We need to remember in our busy lives, with our crazy schedules, to take time out to stop and watch the whales...

reflections

When I was photographing Henry Winkler the other weekend for the Arts Foundation at Pops by the Sea, he asked me what I liked to photograph... I told him I photographed families and high school seniors on the beach, but he stopped me and asked me what I photograph for me... I shared my love of rocks and standing stones and the like, he told me his favorite thing to photograph was reflections...

After my engagement session at Sandy Neck the other night, I saw the dunes reflected in the water, and thought of the Fonz... So this one's for you, Henry. It was a delight meeting you, you are charming and fabulous, thanks for all of those great smiles!!
