    I had the absolute pleasure of helping my daughter’s friend, Jessica, with some portraits for her art school portfolio.  Working around Jessica’s schedule, we had to shoot midmorning.  Thankfully, downtown Tacoma is brimming with great locations that not only provide open shade but interesting colors and textures as well.  Needless to say, I had such a great time with these two young ladies, and I was really glad to get a few shots of them together.  These recent Bellarmine grads have already said goodbye to most of their college-bound friends, and in a few short weeks will have to say goodbye to each other as well.  Thank you, Jessica!  You are a beautiful girl from the inside out, and I wish you every success as you pursue your dreams in San Diego!

    My very first blog post features my own soon-to-be senior.  Where have the last 17 years gone?  Ballet slippers and twirly skirts have been replaced by Tae Kwon Do sparring gear and scuba diving equipment.  Our house is riding the wave of all things college related, and come this fall, Rachel will be up to her chin in college applications.  Georgia Tech and UW rank 1 and 2 on the short list, but I know her daddy is sending some not-so-subtle “go dawgs!” vibes her way.  Wherever Rachel chooses to go, she is interested in bioengineering and a career involving prosthetics.  Rachel, you have always said that your surgery and survival has long inspired you to give back one day, in a meaningful and life changing way.  We have no doubt that your goals, fueled by your tenacious spirit and big heart, will help you in your pursuit of making this world a better place, one person at a time.  We love you!
