Technology Commands Our Attention
The juxtaposition of these two, both looking down at their respective technology, is what caught my attention. On the left: the photographer of the event. On the right: the event planner. Both are intently focused on the equipment in their hands, unaware of each other. The image begs the question: What commands my attention? We…

There Must Be a Story
Like I’ve said before, I’m a storyteller. The fact that I don’t always know the story, doesn’t negate that fact. Photographs tell a story – even when we don’t really know anything about the scene. For instance, I know this is a food truck rally, and the guy in the hat is considering his selection,…

The Sun Down Motel by Simone St. James
Oh how I love a good ghost story, and this one is better than good.

Museum Photography
The peacefulness of walking through a museum is difficult to describe. It is a powerful quiet that seems to overwhelm. While this wasn’t my first choice of stops in DC (the Museum of the Bible), it was a beautiful exhibit. The lighting and artifacts were gorgeous and obviously made for some great photos. The only…

Diary of a Bad Writer: Marginalia
Have you ever picked up a book only to find – gasp – the pages littered with random scribblings! If marginalia is a pet peeve of yours, then please don’t ask to borrow one of my books – especially any from my lit classes. Even my Bible is written in. Yes, I am one of…

#NationalDonorDay
Serendipitous. That’s what I should name this shot. My hubby and I had planned for weeks to shoot the Sunshine Skyway Bridge in Tampa, and on Valentines Day we made it happen. While every other couple I know was enjoying a romantic dinner or a fun date night, my Valentine took me to both the…
