Johnny and Erika

You spend part of your life wandering around hoping to meet that someone special. It's a big world and sometimes that special someone is right there, you've seen them but not noticed them. Maybe you bumped into them or have mutual friends, maybe thought oh they would never go for me.



Sometimes you pray Lord send me a mate! And then There they are, sometimes...... right there in front of you.
You just pass on bye.
Then the timing is right and the rest is history.

Johnny and Erika are engaged and I'm so happy for them. They are both great people and I just love hanging out with them. I was so happy when they asked me to take photo's of them. It's hard to take bad shots of such a great looking couple. They are so happy together and compliment each other so well. I wish them well and look forward to seeing their love grow over the years. Hopefully I will get to shoot many more photo's of them.
         


God bless!

Photoshoot with Trinette, Mike and the boys

Sunny day, playing in the park and lot's of photo's.
We spent the afternoon taking family photo's with Trinette, Mike and their boys. i had a blast, got lots of shot's and look forward to doing it again sometime soon.
The sun was a bit high and harsh but we got through it just fine. My wife assisted me with posing and holding the  flash / umbrella due to some wind an she did a wonderful job. The boys are just as cute as can be and we had fun trying to capture them playing and just being boys.

The handsome boys.








 There's no place to take a nap like mom's lap.
 Worn out and ready to relax.

24 Hours of Lemons

The race started at 3pm Saturday and ran until 3pm Sunday. At least that was the plan, fog became an issue late in the morning and the officials called for a 6 hour break to allow the fog to move on.
Race day or race night started for me at 10:30pm Saturday night. i was working the late shift. I thought it might have been hard to stay awake but i was wrong. Lots of action and lots of flagging and radio work. I was working corner station 3 and there was lots of passing.
I did manage to get some photo's...
As you can see it was dark. There were some portable lights to the right and did light the corner fairly well but it was dark. There was a full moon and plenty of fog. So instead of more typing from me I'll just leave you some shots from the night.






















I hope that all the participants had a great time and I'll see you next year.

press release 9/26/2010

With rumors flying around the pits at the last Gran Prix about P.Massa being replaced by Bob Cubicle at Ferrari the silence has finally been broken and we now know who will drive for the team in 2011.




Victoria Elizebeth, 2 ½ years old signed a contract to race for Scudaria Ferrari with title sponsor “My Daddy Goes Broke Fast Dot Com”
She will be driving the red #2 with testing sessions getting underway as we type. Her agent better known as “Grandpoo” held a press conference at borders book store in New Orleans to announce his driver getting the call up to the big leagues.

 Notable attendee's at the press conference were Mommy and Babe (Grandma).
When questioned about his driver’s fitness he replied “well at a family wedding a couple of weeks ago she danced for almost an hour and a half before taking a break so I think her cardio is great”.
 He also commented that her dad has been pushing her up and down the driveway on her tricycle to prepare for the G forces.

 Italian Team manager Elmo DomasillyOh commented that this is just the push forward the team needs to finish the season on a high note.
Here she is signing her new contract with body guard Peanut watching intently.
Here she goes over the car controls with her chief mechanic aka Daddy.


They discuss race tactics and pit stop strategy.

Once behind the controls her natural talent and determination takes over and after a few laps closes in a new track record.


When asked how her seat fitting went at the factory she said first you put your left foot in, then you shake it all about……..
 

At the track, team manager Elmo DomasillyOh says he is pleased with the first test and can’t wait for race day with his new driver.


After 30 minutes on track she was asked if she thought it was tough to step in and get up to speed, she commented, “it’s just like working on the farm with old Mcdonald  E I E I O”.

When asked what her favorite part of the practice was she said “the pits stops, because mommy gave me some milk and cookies”.

When asked about what her mom thought she said “moms ok with it as long as the race is over before my afternoon nap. Because if I don’t get a nap I get cranky”.

When questioned on her fitness she responded, “just like my friend humpty, it’s as easy as falling off a wall”
The team is pleased with the first test and was happy to announce that since the signing the team has been able to market different areas of sponsorship with huggies possibly being linked as a new team partner.
 When asked about her competitors she replied, "I'm not afraid of baby Hammy".
 At her press conference after this afternoons test session she had these comments:
This is the only view the competition will see of me, my backside........

I will drive flat out!

Stay tuned for more coverage as we get closer to the up coming Kitchen Gran Prix!
