Better in Bulk - Family photographer with a large family
Daily thoughts on living with a large family. I often share the tips I've learned as a photographer on how to get better pictures.
Yes, the title IS quite a mouthful. I simply couldn’t figure out how to pack so much awesomeness into one small line. I don’t know what I’ve done to deserve such an amazing year of travel. Oh! The places I’ve seen! We’re not even halfway through 2012, and already I’ve been to New York City [...]
It seems like ages ago that I got back from my trip to San Jose to visit YesVideo’s headquarters, but it really wasn’t that long ago. “Real life” tends to envelop me and make those glorious days of travel seem to be more distant than they really are. I left my memory card with all [...]
“Whether we like it or not, we are often judged by our appearance.” (Dr. Michelle Callahan) I consider myself an open, welcoming person. I am able to quickly get past a person’s appearance and enjoy them (I hate to even use the word “judge”) for the person that they are rather than what they look [...]
Truth really is stranger than fiction. There is simply no way that Disney could have planned for something as dramatic and unexpected as the adoption of a young, orphaned chimpanzee by such an unlikely male chimp. When we interviewed Dr. Jane Goodall after viewing Chimpanzee, she mentioned that during 52 years of intense observations, she [...]
Last week, I had an incredible opportunity. I was able to sit with Dr. Jane Goodall, who has spent a lifetime studying chimpanzees and paving the way for better treatment of animals. Dr. Goodall met with our group of 20 bloggers right after we saw the premiere of Disneynature’s Chimpanzee (she was at the premiere [...]
You KNOW I do a lot of laundry. It’s inevitable with 7 people in one household. I also talk about laundry a lot. Could be the fact that I often feel consumed by dirty clothes and smelly socks. I was excited to try out Tide Coldwater a few months ago (I have always loved the [...]
When I was a kid, I wanted to be an author. I wrote books constantly (even won some awards for a few of my elementary school novels). But, strangely, once I got to college, I didn’t pursue writing at all. I went in a different direction with no regrets. It’s funny to me that after [...]
I have been to several blogging conferences over the last few years, but there is only ONE conference that I make a point of attending each year: Why you should join me at Type-A Conference: First of all, you will get to hang out with me. If that doesn’t convince you, read on… [...]
I met Jill Smokler years ago, in the infancy days of our blogging journeys. We became friends before we realized that we were neighbors. Since our first meeting in 2009, we have come a long way….or I should say JILL has come a long way. Jill is one of my heros, and if being a [...]
Some of you may have noticed the chimpanzee in my sidebar for the last few weeks. You may have heard me talking on twitter or Facebook about the amazing trip I am taking next month. I’ve been dying to tell everyone (officially) the awesome news – I am heading to Florida in 3 weeks to [...]
