HAPPY NEW YEAR! It seems a common theme around my close friends and family to be happy to see 2009 leave and have a fresh new start. It was quite a year of changes and challenges: moving from Birmingham to Clarksville (pretty hard) … loosing my job at the magazine and becoming a 100% self employed photographer (scary)… remodeling a house (always love a project)… traveling all over the country (always love travel, too)… my sister’s DIY wedding (so much… Read more »

Quick update: I’m in Charleston, South Carolina on an amazing retreat/shooting extravaganza/vacay with 8 other photographers from all parts of the country. Most of us had never met before, or had met just one other person… pretty much the trip is like a week-long blind date… and couldn’t be more fun!
