A horse, equipment failure and a late dinner....

I have never had so much equipment problems on a shoot as I did Saturday shooting Jasmin's senior pictures..The battery for my strobes failed, mu radio triggers kept acting up and I left my stand and adapter to mount my hotshoe flash in my car at the clients house...I ended up having to use the father as a light stand...Just glad that him and I are old school buddies and we just laughed and went with it... Even with all the troubles we had a great session and got a lot of great images...

I love shooting portraits wide open, especiall...

Its crazy...

I know this is supposed to be my photography blog, but I have been to pre occupied with the loss of my bestest pal to do much shooting. Today I was out in the yard with Bella, our other chihuahua, and the neighbors came out and asked about Charlie.  They were upset that he didn't make it. They told me how he made their day when he was outside and would bark at them.
