Emptying the Boots

Knowlesville Posted on February 18, 2003 by MattApril 19, 2019
Emptying the boots

Here I am emptying the water out of my boots. Even after emptying them, they were quite squishy inside. So once again they are at home drying out. Hopefully the cats won’t be leaving me any presents this time, but … Continue reading →

Bucket Brigade

Knowlesville Posted on February 17, 2003 by MattApril 19, 2019
Bucket Brigade

The second event is the bucket brigade, where the company has to fill up a large tub, bucket by bucket. I wish I had video for this one, because when done right, it really looks pretty cool. When the tub … Continue reading →

Home In Time

Knowlesville Posted on February 11, 2003 by MattApril 19, 2019
Sunset

One of the biggest things that I hate about working 10-12 hour days is that I’m not at home to watch the beautiful sunsets we have. Fortunately, the last few nights, due to later sunsets, and a decreased work schedule, … Continue reading →

Ok that was three pictures of Jessica in a row, so time for something completely different. Yesterday as I arrived home from work we had a very pretty sky, even though there weren’t any clouds in it. As the trees … Continue reading →

Valentines Boudoir

With Valentine’s Day approaching, I thought it would be good to have some hi-key photos in my portfolio. Hi key meaning that the photo is mainly composed of highlights, versus low key which is what I tend to shoot more … Continue reading →

The current production of the Ferndale Repertory Theatre is Blithe Spirits, and this is the publicity shot that I did for them. If it’s not obvious from the photo, Bithe Spirits is a ghost story. Lori and I went and … Continue reading →
