8 hours & a lunch

holidays are busy, but not too busy for little doggie-love

I mentioned recently on Twitter that I thought grabbing a quick shot of my dog for a project would be an easy task.  No such luck.  She has gotten so used to the camera, that she turned her back, looked around at me and let out a sigh as if to say, "Not that again."  Then, being the smart dog that she is, she figured out she could get treats for this.  Lots and lots of them.  Seems worth it though.

All the best!

the view from across the street overnight (indiana church fire)

Residents surrounding the Central Church of Christ building, built in the early 50s of Indiana limestone, were awakened early this morning with smoke filling their neighborhood streets.

The Central Church of Christ building was fully engulfed as of this morning.

 

The fire began approximately 12:30 am.

 

At approximately 3:30 AM this morning, most of the roof had been destroyed except for the steel framework of the roof which was bowing in the middle due to the extreme heat.

 

It is still too early at this time to determine the cause of the fire, and there are no apparent injuries.

 (On a side note:  My parents were married in this church 45 years ago.)

These, as well as a few other photos can be seen on WTHR, both online and in the video from today's broadcast, as well as other local news outlets - and on CNN.

All the best!

maestro chris ludwa & jerome collins performing last night

Yes.  While onstage, when I wasn't singing last night....I was taking pics.  ;-)

Jerome Collins of Straight No Chaser was one of our featured performers (and a friend of Chris, our maestro) and brought us a good dose of soul.  We had a blast!  And it was great to see these two friends enjoy performing together....of course, they also were apparently channeling Crockett & Tubbs too.  

All the best!

the little 500 & the blueline hub

Hi everyone!  I've been doing the 'referral day' thing on Tuesdays, but there's a special reason for making an exception today.

My friend Chelsea Sanders and 'the creatives' at Blueline Media are doing media production coverage of the Little 500 again this year.  And I'm helping out.  

To see photos & videos of the events so far, check out the Blueline Little 500 Hub.

The Women's race is next Friday.  The Men's race is next Saturday.  But Team Pursuit is tomorrow out at Bill Armstrong stadium.  If you're in the area, check it out!  (And if you do, be sure to say hi!)

All the best!

seth godin on 'the power of a tiny picture'

Seth Godin lists 10 tips to keep in mind when considering what picture you use in any online social marketing tool.  

Your professional photos are important.  What do yours say about you?  If you're a real estate professional, do they look like every other real estate pro's picture out there?  A talented photographer can make you look professional, while also capturing your personality (and what's special about your business).  

If you're ready for a new headshot or photos for your business, feel free to email me.  (If I'm not in your area, I'd be happy to direct you to a photographer who is.)

All the best!
