It's been just over a year since my beloved dog, Oliver, passed away. He was only 6 years old and had been diagonosed with cancer in Dec 2006. I had to put him to sleep 1 week after I found out he was sick. Oliver was from Yelm, WA from private breeders Mount View Cockers.
A few months after Oliver passed away I flew out to Seattle, WA over President's Day weekend to pick up my new puppy, Jackson. Although Oliver could never be replaced, this little 8 lb bundle of love filled my heart with the void of losing Ollie.
This was the very 1st photo I took of Jackson while in Seattle. I had a lot of volunteers wanting to hold him for the flight home. He slept on my lap back to the Philadelphia airport (6 hours). He was a good boy (thankfully!)
This image was taken Feb 2007 a few days after Jackson arrived in his new home of Absecon, NJ.
And this image was taken this past weekend, just 1 year after I brought Jackson home. He has certainly grown.
Here is my handsome boy today.

Are Mac people superior? You have to watch this and see for yourself.
I just ordered a Mac Pro with a 30" display (now that's a lot of real estate on the desktop!). I have a few PCs and they get the job done quite nicely, but it's time I come back to Mac. I was a Mac user up to about 15 years ago then I switched to PC. At that time, the software that I wanted to use was available for PC only. Macs have once again grabbed my attention and well, here I am buying a gorgeous Mac.
FYI: I don't feel superior just because I am now part of the Mac family, but I do feel like I will be able to produce even better products for my clients. I'll still be using my PCs for processing orders and powerhouse applicatons but my Mac will be used for album design and bangin' color correction with a lot more ease. :)
How many of you are Mac users out there?

February 16, 2008 • Personal keith urban - boardwalk hall
Last night I went to see Keith Urban at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City. He rocked the show.
Carrie Underwood opened for him. Actually I went to the show to see her perform because I really didn't know any of Keith's material. I was pleasantly surprsed when he came onto the stage. He is quite a guitarist. He must have played on at least 7 different guitars. The high light of the show was when he came out into the audience, escorted by security to the middle of the crowd, singing with his electric red guitar. Towards the end of the song, he quickly signed it with a black sharpie and handed it to a fan! How cool was that?
I am not a big county music fan - but I must say I am really turned on to Keith Urban. You haven't seen him perform, get tickets now! :)

February 12, 2008 • News whew! what a great weekend!
I am exhausted! What a great (although short) weekend with The Becker in Orange County, California. I arrived late Friday night and returned Monday evening. Here is a shot of Becker and all of us (4 other photographers and an engaged couple that he photographed that night). He gave me permission to steal this image from his blog. I think his record is 9 people in one shot.
He had us all sticking out our tongues - no one told me it was time to just smile!
I discovered a bridal boutique in LA.
Notice the bars on the windows.
Star maps were plentiful in Hollywood. I ate breakast at a place called Nate and Al's. Guess who was sitting next to me...Larry King!
A gorgeous sunset taken from the Santa Monica Pier on the beach.

I leave for California tomorrow! Woo hoo! I am staying in Los Angeles and will be doing the LA/Hollywood thing on Saturday for a one day spree. I'll let you know if I see any "cella-brities"! ha! :)
My trip is not all pleasure. It's a mix of business and pleasure. I am meeting with my all time favorite photographer in Southern California, Becker..otherwise known as [ b ] . His images totally rock and he is a super cool guy with an amazing sense of style (even though he is a Cowboys fan!). I will be meeting with him all day Sunday. I'll bring back a wealth of knowledge to share with my clients and to produce even more awesome images. I've been waiting months for this trip. I can't wait to go!
Forecast for the weekend: sunny and 73 degrees
