For St. Patrick’s Day this year my friend Linda and I went to a few bars in Covington, Keystone, Blinkers Tavern, and Smoke Justis. They were situated close together so we weren’t out in the cold too long. I asked random people if I could take their photo, everyone seems to love to have their photo taken.
We had a drink at Blinkers Tavern, the least busy of them all.
Next we drove 20 minutes to a party at my brother’s house. There were about 30 people there. That’s my brother and his wife below.
It was a nice time, but I prefer one-on-one versus parties nowadays.
My past week has included getting together with my good friend for a drink at my place and then dinner out. We ended up going to a Mexican food place, although I’ve had my fill since I just got back … Continue reading →
2017 began with me on assignment at the Casino in Cincinnati for Cincinnati Refined. A very colorful and loud party to photograph.
I continued finding much joy taking photos in my free time…like the sunrise captured in this church window a couple of minutes from our place in the country.

My husband and I were able to get away to Florida for a week in December.
As you can see, my year was very busy, filled mostly with photography and growing my business, with a little travel sprinkled in.
Last night I did a photo shoot for iSPYCINCY at the Madison Theater in Covington, Kentucky of an event called Glamour and Glow. It was colorful, exciting and electric! I’ve never shot pics of models with neon paint, so it was a challenge. I knew I wouldn’t be using flash and would need to shoot high ISO. One of the challenges were spotlights flashing in different intensities and colors. Sometimes my light meter would register too dark or too light. As you can see, the attendees were provided with special viewing glasses.
This mermaid was cool…
This little guy was so sweet. You’ll see another photo down below where he’s balancing on a ball.
