No matter how far we travel, and how many extraordinary landmarks we encounter, one of my life’s greatest pleasures is just spending a day with the kids.

Summer in the cityMay 27, 2006I’m getting really excited about our upcoming trip to New York. I’ve been to NYC several times, but never for longer than a day or two, and usually during the cold, wet days of winter. Some of you have sent me some great suggestions for things to do while I’m in the city, which inspired me to do a full post about it. ** Question for New Yorkers and my traveler friends ** In exchange for New York tips, I’ll offer a tip for a way to spend a summer day in the DC area:

Behind the scenesMay 22, 2006
This photo cracks me up! Mike captured this hilarious moment during our portrait shoot Saturday in Denver. You just have to wonder what is going through the baby’s mind. Caption ideas, anyone?

New arrival in WellsMay 18, 2006Who can guess the newest arrival in Mike’s hometown, Wells, in southwest England? Some background information: Wells is the smallest city in Europe, with a shopping district that is about a block long, and no chain restaurants. There are plenty of charming pubs and shops, and a cathedral that dates to the 13th Century. The Saturday market occurs in the shadow of the Bishop’s Palace. Wells has a wonderful, small-town, old-England feel.

My momMay 17, 2006
In the spirit of Mother’s Day, here is a fun photo of my mother and me at the Sanctuary of Athena in Delphi, Greece. I must be one of the luckiest people in the world–not only am I close with my wonderful parents, but I even get to discover the world with them.

JoEllen and BillMay 12, 2006
I’ve known JoEllen and Bill for years, even before they were married, and this was the third time I’ve photographed them. It’s so fun to photograph an attractive couple, in a beautiful location, in perfect weather, right at sunset. Ahhh… it’s a good life. JoEllen and Bill, it was great to see you! I hope you enjoy the pictures!

Frank
I’ve been friends with Frank since we were in college together at UVA, so I was excited when he asked me to do some portraits for his business ventures. We started with formal headshots for his marketing materials. Then we took some more casual photos for his MySpace, showcasing his personality, artwork, and fabulous Clarendon condo. Pictures like these are great for things like MySpace, blogs, or online dating profiles. Match.com claims that profiles with photos receive ten times more visitors than profiles without. If you’d like some pictures to make you stand out and look great, please let me know.

Mother’s Day portraits with Tom and LisaMay 9, 2006
Happy Mother’s Day to Mary, Myrna, and Dottie! My friends and long-time clients, Tom and Lisa, asked me to help them celebrate Mother’s Day with some portraits of them with their moms. Isn’t that a wonderful idea? I think most mothers would love to have photos even more than material gifts. I really hope these photos make them happy this Mother’s Day!

Loudoun Photography ClubMay 3, 2006
I’d like to thank the Loudoun Photography Club for inviting me to speak last night! I truly enjoyed meeting you, and it was a pleasure to be able to share some of things I’ve learned in my career. I gave a two-hour presentation on wedding photography, and it was well-received by the group. Thanks for your interest, LPC, and feel free to contact me any time if you have questions. Thanks also to Kira for coming out to attend my presentation. It was wonderful to meet you! If any of you have not seen Kira’s blog, I highly recommend that you take a look. Her travel photography is breathtaking. Finally I’d like to thank Mike for all his help, and Heather and my mother for their support.

Dinner with a view!May 2, 2006
How’s this for a view? Mike and I had dinner with my parents at this fantastic rooftop restaurant, overlooking the Acropolis. We sipped our wine as the hill lit up and the sun went down. Sublime.

Delphi
Last week we saw the ancient Oracle of Apollo! I’m sorting through my vacation photos randomly, since I’m not at home and don’t have a lot of time. I’ll post ‘em as I find ‘em.

Back in the USAMay 1, 2006
Yesterday we started the day in Athens, had cappuccino in Milan, and enjoyed a beautiful spring afternoon in Virginia. Kalimera! Buon giorno! How’s it going? Life is weird sometimes. We got back yesterday from an adventure in England and Greece. We spent a week in London and Somerset, visiting Mike’s family and friends. Then we headed to Athens to visit my brother and his family. My little niece and nephew, Kenna and Robby, are a complete delight and I miss them already. As you probably suspect, I took a gazillion photos. I haven’t had a chance to look through them, but I’ll be sure to post them when I can. Stay tuned! After two weeks in Europe, Mike and I are now visiting my parents in the DC area. Today we wandered around our old neighborhood of Clarendon, and lounged for a while at our favorite coffee shop. Even after all this time, the manager remembered my favorite coffee drink. How fun.
