    nikki moore - wonderful! just visited Seattle for the first time this summer, and fell in love. it’s so fun to recognize places. great photos.

Vancouver, BC. 2010 Olympic games. What an experience.

    Josh - Nice pics and WICKED layout. Looks like some darn good times.

    Brad - Beautiful images. Still, images just can’t capture the all the beauty God has designed. Life is bittersweet, but the hope we have carries us through. My prayers are with you all.

Last week was madness. Filled it with a trip to Orlando for a few meetings. But the beautiful part… we found this gem of a place in Mukilteo upon my return home. Diamond Know Brewery. Holy moly. Do yourself a favor and go tomorrow.

Reason # 7,342 that the PNW is absurdly better than most places.

Oh, and the polaroid… throwin’ it back to my first camera experience when my friend and I would take snaps of ourselves and send them to our AOL girlfriends. True Story.

See ya next Monday. Til then… find something awesome to do with your week–which obviously won’t include things like watching The Bachelor, buying a Kia or punching kittens.

Peace.

    sharis - lovin’ the polaroids. Way to keep it alive.

    I already punched a kitten this week (you think i’m kidding don’t you?)… since that’s off the list I’m going to do some sweet documentary photography titled; “day in the life of” … and who did I choose as my subject? THE TROLLY MAN. :) so excited. He drives the tourist trolly all through Kona. get ready for some fun pics.

    Elissa - Diamond Knot!? I don’t know how I feel about other people finding my fav hole-in-the-wall beer spot:) Its the only thing that makes living in the Muk worthwhile (that and the ivars happy hr.)
