P.S. My old blog, well, it was just old! So we updated it! We now have cool new bells and whistles, and hopefully will have more content if I get my act together :) We were able to move over most of the old posts, but lost the comments in the process. So...stop by the guest book if you haven't in a while and drop me a note. I would love to hear from you!

Jim and Linda Wellborn

(LOL!! Sorry…I am already laughing and I haven’t even posted yet!)

I was about to start by saying that many of you who know me also know Jim Wellborn, but what I should TRULY say, is that Jim knows you!! Jim seems to know everyone! He has thousands of contacts in his phone. If you need someon’s info…call Jim, he’s got it!

Contact King aside, Jim and Linda are cool people. Jim is a missionary for the Assemblies of God and I had the privilage of taking a few photos for their business card. His wife Linda works at a local college and is an amazing cook. Amanda (my wife) loves going to their house with me…even if it means we are going to be taking photos! She has no doubt, Linda has something cooking! The night we showed up to take photos, she had made steak with salad, and potatoes, and rolls, and dessert. Gosh it was good. Is it lunch time yet??

Watching the Democratic National Convention

You know, after watching multiple speeches and announcements at the NDC, I have to sit back and wonder “what would be so bad if Barack Obama was elected?” What is the difference between the Republicans and the Democrats? They are both calling for change. They are both saying that they are going to cut taxes. They both say they will end the war in Iraq. Education, healthcare, and jobs are all something they keep talking about. So what is the difference? After all, what does the President actually do these modern days? Is the position simply one of face for the USA? I am starting to wonder!

Bridal Session with Lindsay Whitlock Scheele

About a month ago I had the privilage of doing a bridal session one early Saturday morning with Lindsay, Kim (mom), Bethany (sister), Amanda (my wife:)), and Kristin (assistant). It was not to bad temperature wise, but gosh was it humid!

We shot at the awesome Nathaniel Greene park here in Springfield, MO. With such a beautiful bride-to-be (congrats Kyle!!), it was difficult to not walk away with some great photos! You can check out the full gallery here.

We also shot some in my home studio. Just a few for fun…
