Busy Busy
As always, it's been a super busy summer, but the end of the summer became downright crazy. I don't remember a time since college that I felt so busy! So there will be several posts coming up, but in the meantime, here's one of the new activities adding to the busy summer : I got certified to scuba dive! My husband was certified as a young teen but hasn't been back since then and wanted to get back into it. I feel like scuba has taken over here. We're now both Advanced Open Water divers, dry suit certified and nitrox certified. Later this month we're going down to Califonia's Channel Islands for a 3 day live-aboard boat trip. Super exciting!
Thanks to my husband for taking these two pictures, that's me on the left during my last certification dive back in June.
And while we were underwater this Lion's Mane jellyfish came by right at the surface and he got this great picture. Watch out for these suckers, they sting and have hundreds of tenticles that are pretty much see-through at the end. The big ones we saw had tentacles as long as 20 feet or more, but they can get even bigger. For you literature lovers out there, don't worry, they don't kill as portrayed in the Sherlock Holmes story The Adventure of the Lion's Mane.

I was beyond happy to be the photographer for Joseph and Rachel's wedding. They are an amazing couple and deserve so much happiness. It may have been raining, but they brought the radiance in their pure joy. Thank you Joseph and Rachel for letting me be a part of your day! Enjoy!

Cherry Blossoms | Fine Art Photography
Here are some lovely cherry blossom pictures I took a couple weeks ago. I'm sad that most cherry trees have already lost their blooms, they just don't stick around long enough! I have three more cherry blossom photographs that can also be seen over in my Nature Gallery.
I've already purchased a print of this one for myself, tightly cropped in on the left blossom, to include
in a wall collage of macro flowers all cropped square and done in black and white. It looks great!
To purchase these or other flower photography, see my Nature Gallery.

John + Manita Wedding
I had such a great time with John and Manita. The love was palpable and Manita really knew how to work it! And I'm so glad she made the choice to meet in the Plaza in front of the Oregon State Capitol building with all the cherry trees gorgeous in bloom! Congratulations John and Manita!

i {heart} faces "Wind"
This week's i♥faces theme is wind.
I discovered a few things in contemplating this theme:
1. As the mother to 3 boys, my personal work is not filled with flowy blowing hair.
2. My professional work has apparently not encountered much wind, nor do we really get that much wind here compared to other places I've lived.
3. Even when we go to the beach where there's lots of wind, I still have boys and the cold Oregon beaches inspire the use of hats anyway.
Thus, I'm going with this rare self-portrait of my husband and I atop the Columbia River Gorge where it is always very windy. In fact, it felt like we were going to be blown off the cliff here.
