Just For You

Being a freelance photographer really has made me

a person who has had many varied experiences in my career.

Emphasis on the ‘varied’.

But they were experiences that taught me much

about the ‘soft skills’ of working with people,

even if it taught me what not to do the next time.

When I chose to use my intuitive senses in my daily life,

I did so as a photographer as well.

And the people who came into my life in personal and business ways

were people who tested me. Emphasis on the ‘test.’

Communication breakdowns, money issues, ego bruising experiences.

Only thing I can do is choose my reaction to it,

knowing that self-control is the master class

in releasing glamourous holds on me.

My brilliant energy and heart are part of my backbone now,

and I have strength and determination

as if a spark had lit the fire in me

to create something extraordinary for you

in my pictures of everything

whether you see it or not.

Eye Level

My motto with creating new family portraits is:

If it gets in the way, it does not stay.

As we have this terrific light winter in Chicago,

we can still make amazing baby photos outdoors.

Source Energy

I have two types of energy.

One is physical;

and the other is mental and spiritual.

The latter is by far the more important,

for from the spiritual energy

I can draw vast power and strength

in my time of need.

Dance Circle

At the scene called Sunday Service,

I’m so delighted I’ve got a spot

I can ‘put my hand on my hip and let my backbone slip.’

An additional pleasure is seeing photographs at every turn.

This child’s face of concentration lights the center

of a passionate crowd of dancing grownups.

Tend Your Chicks


Chickens come home to roost, and so do your thoughts. Be careful what sort of thoughts you send out.

The thoughts you send out to others will have a far greater impact upon you than upon them.

Unlike a material possession, when you release a thought or give it to someone else, it also stays with you.

It may remain buried in your subconscious long after your conscious mind has forgotten about it.

Like chickens that return to the coop at night, such thoughts may flash into your consciousness when you least expect them.

When your thoughts are positive, you never have to worry about the damage you may do to yourself through negative thinking.

Cheerful, productive, happy thoughts that are buried in your subconscious bring positive results when they recur, and by their presence they encourage the maintenance of a positive attitude in all that you do.

This is a thought-energy selection from my favorite, Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill.


I would love to help create and maintain positive energy in the home through intimate family and personal photography.

Contact me here to discuss creating that artwork today. .

Wiser

It started innocently enough: Someone has liked your post!

When I clicked the link,

the address was missing one letter:

Proofreader Me, thinking it was a mistake,

typed what I thought was the corrected address.

My laptop exploded with flashing blue screens

telling me that it was locked now,

and only their ‘expert’ could help me retrieve my data again.

Needless to say, after coloring the air blue with a few choice phrases,

(and an apology to Artist for them!)

I went about reclaiming my laptop, from where I’m posting!

After I’d had time to think,

it made me a little sad.

I always like to give the person

the benefit of the doubt,

and this person may not know

his site had been corrupted.

But I also would not be surprised

if he was part of the spidery web

of wanna-be hackers

wasting their God-given gifts in this way.

But if this causes one reader

to be alert for this image, this WP address,

and this ‘trick’, then it is worth it.

All the best to all of us

who strive for honest, connected communication.

Conga Line

I love the conga line!

My cameras do, too!

It’s a dance the shy can do,

and the bolder ones can do with flair!

Group dancing is great for social skills practice

and positive social experiences,

a dance at a time!

Enjoy your events: Let me take the photos!
