Wenatchee Wild: Sport photography

Last night was the season opener, and very first game ever, for our new semi-pro hockey team, the Wenatchee Wild. Also a brand new arena, The Town Toyota Center, built for the team. (Sorry, but I hate sports complexes and contests named after for-profit businesses! Tostito Bowl? Pu-leese!) Anyway, I was one of the photogs covering the event and it was a pretty fun, if tiring, night! I have now been awake for over 30 hours and I think it's nap time!

EDIT: Saw this photo was listed as Amy's Pic for this week's contest ("Silhouettes"). Too cool, thanks Amy! Please check out the post and see the rest as there are some gorgeous silhouette photos to be seen!

Molly: East Wenatchee senior portrait photography

Senior Molly has been a North Central Washington Volleyball Club (NCWVBC) teammate with my daughter for two seasons. She has been in many, many of my photos with her killer spike and awesome blocks. Was so nice to get to shoot her (Eastmont) senior photos! Such a sweet, and TALL, girl! Thanks Molly!

You're so money, you don't even know how money you are.

Grabbed the camera for a quick little shot of Carsey being, well, Carsey.

Matt, Wenatchee Fire: Sport photography

Got to shoot Matt, a very good friend of my daughter, during his soccer game. He plays for the Wenatchee FIre, a premier soccer league. Was so nice and Fall-ish outside and the action was fun to watch. My girls used to play soccer but its been a few years. Was totally enjoyable to get outside and watch the game. More photos are in the Sports gallery.

September '08 wrap-up: Digital photography collage [scrapbook style]

Really, where does the time go? Did we not just start September? For that matter, did we not just start summer? The new year? Crazy how it seems to be speeding along at an increasingly exponential rate. A pretty low-key month for me. I had hernia surgery Sept. 10 and the past 3 weeks off for recovery. Am doing great now and ready to head back to work. I think what happens is we get caught in a loop of looking forward to the next thing, so we kind of mentally skip through the stuff in the middle in anticipation. And while whats next is important, so is whats right now. Our next big thing is a whole family trip to DisneyWorld in Orlando (in November, so if you want holiday card photos, book now). Have been looking forward to that for almost 1-1/2 years, which, of course, means 1-1/2 years have sped by. What are you looking forward to, and what are you doing to help enjoy the here and now?
