New York City

Me and Jess went to New York City to visit Jeffrey in November. It was great times. Here are a few of my favorite things we did and photos.

some things in life make you giggle

Occasionally when feature hunting you find some pretty hilarious things


I sat in my car for a bit staring to make sure I wasn't reading it wrong...Don't worry I didn't turn this in for the paper...

I turned this in instead...

Sixth graders read in the window sill at Parchment Middle School.

Life with the Wife

I went to Holland on Monday to visit my wife to photograph Karla, her boss' house for a competition in Domino magazine.

she found a barbie


While taking some photos of them in the bathroom Bis said, "now all i need is some wine." A minute later Karla walks in with a glass


and then when my work was done I enjoyed some totties with my "man". who creates quite the stir let me tell you. and yes i lamely asked how to hold the cigarette.

The First

There is something about having a blog that intimidates me. I have had this for awhile but never knew what to write about. So, I thought I'd start off with some exciting news.

I interviewed this morning with the Muskegon Chronicle and got the internship for the Winter term. I am ecstatic to say the least. I really know nothing about Muskegon except for the fact that they have sweet summer events and Michigan's Adventure though.

Knowing that I have job security is a beautiful thing. Especially in this profession.

I think my student loans will be the end of me. Screw the government. seroiusly.

This will be the first time I will move somewhere without knowing a single soul. I knew a few people when i went to CMU. I knew Chad and Tarryl already when I went to Jackson. and I knew Jonathon when I came to Kalamazoo. This time I will know no one. I only hope that it won't be so lonely. and winter makes me depressed as it is.

Tonight me and Jonathon went to Mark's (another photog at the Gazette) for dinner and it made me miss family. I guess I am the type of person that needs to be surrounded by love.

but regardless of my worries. I am excited for a new adventure in the near future.
