Once again I’ve fallen behind in my blogging duties. With Christmas coming up, I seem to have been more busy than usual. The good news is that means I’ve taken a lot of pics and seen some really good shows lately. The bad news is that I haven’t made the time to post blog updates about them. So I thought I’d just do a quick post with some of the pics that I’ve taken over the past week or two, and dangle a few promises of future posts out there for all of you. Consider it my Christmas gift to my readers ;) . It may take me a day or two, but I’ll have more pics in my gallery soon, and I’ll make the pics below link to the galleries from those days/shoots.

Let’s see. The most recent of my adventures was the Alejandro Escovedo show tonight at Bend Studio. Ally is ending the year with a bang, with the last two shows of 2006 being Ian Moore and Alejandro. It was an act I’ve been waiting to see for a long time, and I was not disappointed in any way. I’ll put a full review up soon.

Melissa Ham-Ellis honored me with a visit this week to take some pics for her marketing/promotion. She was the captin of my high school drill team and went on to be a Patriots cheerleader, actress, and professional dancer. We took tons and tons of pics, and I was happy with the result. I guess I had it easy though; with someone that beautiful, it’s hard not to get some good pics. I’m still working through them and will post more soon.

About two weeks ago I took pictures of Rob’s family. They wanted some Christmas pics and Rob, Lili and Stac all came over to my apartment to take some pics. I have a new found respect for people who take photos of babies for a living. Lili is an angel, and Rob and Stacy were fantastic in helping me keep her attention, and it was still not easy!!!! One of the pics made their Christmas card, so the mission was successful.

Finally we have the Paul Sprawl show at Standard and Pours. I’ll write up a full review on him as well, but for now I’ll just say that I’ve never ever seen anyone who can play a guitar the way that guy can play a guitar.
More to come!
