I had a bit of a slump that spanned the unending winter and straight into summer, but I think it’s finally ending. I think. My mojo didn’t really even come rushing back…I had to force it! I woke up one morning sick of feeling so useless and started vowing to spend an hour looking at photography, reading blogs and making lists…endless lists.

So far I think it’s working. I’m trying to push through the rest of my edits-to-be-edited so I can start fresh. One of the things I want to try is a daily cell phone photo that I think I’ll upload to tumblr. If you’ve never checked out tumblr before, it’s pretty awesome. It’s micro-blogging and full of great photography!

Despite the funk I’ve been wallowing in, I have been shooting here and there. I did Beth’s maternity session a few months ago. She just had Madilyn Hope yesterday! Congrats, Beth!!

There was also the model party we had back in May, I’ve still got some edits to do from this but here’s the shots I edited already.

Julie.

Jacky.

Janelle.

Maria.

I also took a trip to NYC with my friend Haskell to see Scott Kelby’s Light It! Shoot It! Retouch It! tour at the Javitts center. It was totally amazing, as is to be expected from Scott Kelby’s tours at this point. I really enjoyed his Photoshop tour I saw in Boston and this one was even better. Unfortunately we didn’t have too much time to roam the streets and shoot, but I did take a few photos.

Here’s what it looked like from our we-arrived-late seats!

We went to an amazing little Thai place for lunch.

Haskell was a better photographer and actually took some photos while we were there. I was a crappy one and just took a photo of him taking a photo. META!

More to come. I will smash this funk! SMASH!

Coming up next: Promo session with Boston hip-hop artist, Greatness.

Sunshine, friends and a good lens…all I need in life!

Two things I’m in love with this week; no-knead bread and spring blossoms…

It was really good, this is the recipe.

These trees line the parking lot next to Ashley’s house. Snapped this on the way home.

Hope you’re enjoying your spring (if it’s spring where you are, anyway!)

This I was playing around with murdering shadow detail.

I’m so excited, I can’t wait to see the CD! Thanks for letting me work with you, Greg!
