Slice of Heaven: Slice 13 & 14 Old Friends
Today I had the privilege of seeing our old friends from our days in Washington. Now, these aren’t just any old friends, they are the adopted grandparents of my babies and are basically family. You see when we lived in Seattle we didn’t have ANY family there so we quickly became friends with this wonderful family and it’s been history ever since. They were there for Thanksgivings when we were away from home and...
Slice of Heaven: Slice 12 – DIY Steady Cam
So over the past month I’ve been combining designs and compiling info on the best way to make a “Steady Cam” for my 5D Mark II. The camera takes such amazing video that I felt it was a crying shame not to start using it. So, I made a design, had some parts machined, used some off the shelf items and made my own. Today was the “maiden voyage” and it worked like a charm! I was so pumped to see how great...
Slice of Heaven: Slice 10 – Baby Cheeks
You know, I never get tired of kissing my daughter on the cheek. As I was putting her to bed tonight I held her as she was drinking her milk and kissed her cheek repeatedly. It was so soft, squishy, and round. But every day her cheeks disappear a little. I’ve seen it happen in my son, even though he still has a little left, I still remember when he had the chipmunk cheeks too. I kiss my babies every day, many times a day,...
Slice of Heaven: Slice 9 – Smiling Eyes
I have to say, there is a difference when a person smiles with their eyes. It’s especially true for children. They tell so much in their eyes it’s amazing. Every Sunday at the end of Church I make a point to go pick up my little girl from her classroom as soon as I can get there. I love looking through the little window and seeing where she is and what’s she’d doing as they play and have fun, hoping she...
Slice of Heaven: Slice 8 – Networking
Today was a most awesome day. I had the great opportunity to Skype with Kellen and Michael in Texas and make some new friends and then head out with my wife to the AZ bridal show. It was jam packed and we saw so many great things and great ideas. The best part was meeting with and getting to know lots of other great photographers as well as coordinators from some of the top venues here in Arizona and the nation. We met some really...
Slice of Heaven: Slice 7 – Helpers and Tags
Recently I’ve been preparing for some really fun things to come with photography and videography. I’ve been able to also have some of the best “helpers” along to assist. Today I went down to our partner’s machine shop to pick up some parts with my little helper. He was so excited, you would have thought I said… we’re flying to Disneyland! He loves telling me where we should be turning and...
