Below are some of my favorite images and a design I made just for him.  If you like the below sample images, please contact us and we can custom design a session just for you like we did for Brandon… and there’s no extra cost… how about that!

PS – On the lighter side, I locked my keys in the car.  It’s the first time I have ever done this… not just this year, or since I started driving, but EVER as in I’ve never done this in my life… and right while I’m waiting for a client to arrive for the shoot.  Well, at least I had the insight to take my cameras and gear out of the car before I locked the keys in it… no, wait… I didn’t.  So while I was waiting for my wife to “rescue me” with a set of keys from home, Cherise (Brandon’s mom) and I had a good time talking for a few minutes before the shoot.  After my gear was in hand and ready for use, Cherise and I went to find Brandon in the river (so see, he wanted to get there a few hours early and go fishing).  Well, no Brandon upstream… no Brandon downstream.  We saw a fisherman in the distance and started yelling at him to come until we realized that it wasn’t him.  As it turned out, Brandon couldn’t find us and went home.  A quick cell phone call fixed that and we got started on the shoot.  What a rough start, but at least the images turned out good!

The battle continues...

The battle of cat-and-mouse continues!

Nice fish for Timmy O

Hope your day goes well and that you enjoy the time spent with family and friends during this upcoming Easter weekend.  Remember, He’s Alive!

We’ll talk soon… Tim
