Another day of the Mrs. having the camera and the kids, so Gabrielle was up in the rotation for photos. Another great set if I do say so myself (not that I am biased). 

I happen to love this photo of her. It was taken last month. In the snow. On film. And doesn’t she just look awesome?

The Mrs. asked me to leave the digital at home yesterday so she could take some photos. From the looks of it, she and my little “fashionista” Madelyn had a great time of it. Here are a few of the results (and yes, I am still a sucked for B&W).

And have some color.

I am not sure who was worn out more by the holidays, us or the kids.

Wishing you all a great 2010.

Right before the holidays, we had our first “real” snow of the year. We took the girls out on that Saturday when it was only about six inches deep. Maddie loves it, Gabbie wasn’t as big of a fan.

Luckily, we went out on Saturday. By Sunday, we had in excess of 21 inches on the ground with some drifts in the yard being as high as around 3 feet.

Not a whole lot of description needed here, just some photos my father scanned that were taken when I was growing up. Memories caught on film, the main reason I fell in love with photography to begin with.

1969: I was one month old in this photo

1970: my first birthday

1970s (early):

1975:

1976/77: me and the little sister

1988ish: me and my sister again (gotta love all that hair)

1989:

1990:

1991: me and mom

And the two people that made alll of this possible (and my new favorite photo of them). But why did I never realize that my dad looked like Quentin Tanartino when he was young???
