Here in New England the winter is the longest, most annoyingly gray winter ever. I’m over it. I want nice weather, outdoor shoots and the beach back. NOW.

But since that seems to be light years away, I’m keeping busy with indoor photos, my 365 project and website updates. I’ve added (finally) the general portrait info packet to the Rates page. This applies to senior, couple, children, newborn, and any other portrait sessions. Exceptions being band promotion photos and model portfolio which I am still taking pro-bono sessions for.

I also finally got my Poverty Wizard flash triggers (or Cactus triggers if you want to be no fun about it). They’re pretty sweet for 40 bucks! I’d say they fire 8 out of 10 times. I can deal with that for now.

Their more expensive counterparts, Pocket Wizards have announced their new models for us poor photogs to drool over. Dave from Strobist has given a good run-down on them here.

For fans of photoshop actions and preset goodness, Michelle Black is offering some killer discounts in preparation of her upcoming flash website. Check em out here.

Well, I’ve got some wedding contracts to type up now, but here’s some of my favorite pictures from the last week or so.

Vintage with a runny nose.

My husband’s two faces (ISO 100, I set the shutter to 10 seconds, f/20 or something like that, and hand-popped my flash twice- once when he was up close to the lens and again when he backed up.)

Bath time!
