I had the pleasure of meeting with the Arnoldus family in LaGrande last night and got to hear one of the

songs written by Buck Arnoldus.  This LHS sophmore is exceptionally talented!  If I find that I can post a

link to his music I will let you know. 

What fun!!!  The, dare I embarrass him...HANDSOME Casey met up with me at the speedway last night

and here are some of the results :).

Alyssa came down from LaGrande Friday for Senior Portraits, she came early and went to see Lisa at

Stylin  323.4404.  Lisa did a great job giving Alyssa that finished look she wanted, of course it didn't hurt

at all that Alyssa is georgous!

Nick was in this morning for Senior Portraits.  Nick has an amazing grin and is very muscular. 

 The brisk feel of fall is in the air and the colors are just starting to yellow a little.  Too fun! 

I really enjoyed photographing Patrick this evening!  We made a few changes to the barn area and boy

are they ever looking good.  Thanks Patrick, for a fun time.  :) 

Here are some new Dad's Desks and composites we designed last month!  The four images in the Dad's Desk was difficult to pull together given the small outside dimensions of 4x10 inches.  I really wanted to keep it ultra simple and often that is the hardest thing to do.  Let me know what you think!

Here is what happens when we make it rain in the sunshine.  Isn't she beautiful!

This morning at our BNI meeting our newest member gave us his three minute launch, telling a little about himself and his business.

Mike was a police officer, working for the sherrif's department for many years.  Early in his career he had a life changing expierence during a domestic violence call with shots fired.  It changed his life.  Out of that he came up with a personal motto, 'I CAN HELP".  It is an acronym.

Integrity...always operate with a ton of this!

Courage..need I say more?

Attitude...make sure yours is positive.

Nobility...behave like nobility, do something nobel.

Honor...everyone else and yourself.

Excellence...keep your standards the highest possible.

Leadership...be one!  Follow well!

Peace....

This deeply impacted me and I wanted to ...

Those rainy August days made for some great fun with an umbrella, and for effect we added a hose!  Alesis's little sister Madison couldn't have been happier to help out and hold the hose....  :)
