I just spent an incredible couple of weeks in Guatemala and am having trouble adjusting to the snow on the ground here in New York. I'm so excited to write about the experience and share my photos, but I'm headed to a workshop in Mystic, CT this afternoon, so I'll post this one photo from Chichicastenago -- and promise mucho mas photos soon.

quite the find, from my brother, bill... and very well-received with my parents, as you can see.  it's tradition for this movie to be playing as we open gifts, although i think everyone's a little sick of ralphie. (but who wants to mess with tradition?)

Hmmm.....I'm not sure if I like the lamp or the 'headgear' more in this photograph. Unfortunately, I can't divulge my home address for fear someone may now be motivated to break in and steal one or the other.

yesterday, dawn and boris came over to get some shots of their adorable, wee daughter, ava. we kept the shoot in-studio, so it was a fun challenge to get interesting shots without the support of a cool cityscape behind us.

i also liked the challenge of time constraints. One-year-olds tend to give you just a handful of minutes to get your shot, and then they're outta there!

Ahhhhhh. So nice to wake up the morning of Joanna and Jim's wedding and just hop in a cab over to the hotel. Traveling is awesome... but keeping it local has its perks.

So gorgeous... Everyone kept saying Joanna looked like Grace Kelly. I tend to agree!

Joanna and Jim took off on a DEAD run toward the church after we got done shooting. I have never before seen anyone haul through rainy midtown NYC in heels like that! I couldn't keep up.

i didn't partake in the glorious hunt on thanksgiving, but i did grab some shots of brothers and nephews proudly displaying their sand sharks -- the only fish anyone could catch. not a single edible fish.  good thing we'd left part of the slusher clan back at the house cooking back-up food. we make lousy fishermen/women. :)
