Pictures of us by Margaret Singer
December 15, 2009 – 2:59 pm
For our two year anniversary we had the bokeh-beautiful, lovely and talented Margaret Singer make some portraits of us.
T and I were at the Union Oyster House (where we got engaged) and had a few pints to warm up before being on the other side of the lens, which I learned is quite helpful. Possibly a good way to begin engagement sessions.
These are just a few of my favorites. Thanks again to Margaret Singer for being so much fun to shoot with.
Sorry you missed the champagne and oysters end to the night. Next time.

Road Trip | Sleepover at the Clarke-Fields
April 19, 2009 – 2:56 pm
Hunter and I met while waiting for our respective graduate school interviews. We met again the first day of school, and spent two years training to be art teachers at MassArt in Boston. In the years since, both of us have migrated away from classroom teaching, but have remained good friends. Hunter, her husband Bill and thier daughter Maggie opened their home to Trent last year when he was working the primaries in Pennsylvania, and we jumped at the chance to visit them as we drove north towards New England.
Hunter woke us up with the alluring smell of bacon, coffee and pancakes. The Clark Fields are a wonderful and warm family. Thanks again for giving the three of us a place for the night. There’s nothing like pancake eating in pajamas after nearly a month on the road.
Road Trip | St. Louis

It was raining and we had very little time in St. Louis. But I did convince Trent is circle the Gateway Arch a few times, and I got this image at sunset.

Thanks again to Joe and Skylar Bellinger for hosting us, and asking us to stay for Easter dinner, and hosting a beautiful afternoon at their Overland Park home.

We met some very interesting entrepreneurs, and had a wonderful time visiting with Joe, Skylar, their friends and family.
Happy Easter from Kansas City
April 12, 2009 – 8:47 am
Happy Easter from Kansas City! Or more precisely Overland Park, where we have been camped out with our friends Joe and Skylar Bellinger, spending the last few days alternating between delighting in colossal amounts of midwestern food(Strouds) and bbq(Arthur Bryants), cathing up with the backlog of Denver, and and meeting Kansas entrepreneurs.
Yesterday afternoon I took some time to help Skylar prepare for Easter. I can’t remember the last time I frosted sugar cookies, if indeed that time ever existed. I had a great time dyeing frosting spring colors and decorating tulips, umbrellas, rainbows (and a few surfboards thrown in for Trent). After the cookies were done, Matt and Leslie came over with ‘Easter beer’ and assorted egg dying kits and arts and crafts afternoon rolled into the night.
A few images of our efforts.
Wishing everyone a beautiful day! More entrepreneurial stories to share coming tomorrow.
Happy Holidays

All the best with this Holiday season, and wishing everyone an extraordinary New Year.
in search of the lyrical
November 28, 2008 – 4:25 pm
On our Thanksgiving trip out to Phoenix, we took a detour to see the Grand Canyon. A few hundred meters into the Bright Angel Trail, we came across a group of big horned sheep; literally right next to use, so close if we had wanted we could have reached out and touched them. Though, clearly, we didn’t.
I had in my hands only, gasp!, a film camera, so these are a few images Trent took with a digital camera.
And the quintessential long-armed-stretch-wide-angled-self-portrait of the two of us, two days into car-crazy.

Happy Halloween. I decided, after spying a feathery head at Forever21, to go as Kenley from Project Runway. Below and more traditional costume, on a very adorable child.
