Some of the film photographs I took while traveling through Germany in late September. Laura and I posted more of a writeup at our co-blog, drtandink.com/blog. The trip included several dates backstage and frontstage seeing Mumford & Sons, Old Crow Medicine Show, and Nathaniel Rateliff. Three favorites, we had a blast. More photos on my flickr, and more yet to be uploaded.

Honestly, its been a long time coming and I’m not sure why I didn’t earn this for myself years ago, but I’ve already determined not to hold it against me. This comes on a good day in which I didn’t get the only two things I wanted for my birthday: Nebraska beating Texas and/or a nephew. So here’s a cheers to a new year and finally having the time to rework the blog.
This Summer Laura and I did some photographical work for a friend Laura had met the previous Summer in Seattle at a street market. The project this friend was undertaking is a boutique-ish line of natural and fair-trade wool clothing made in Uruguay. The project, called El Origin Wool, has features many beautiful ideas as well as fashion, even though I myself don’t care that much for fashion itself. Friend of the project, Annie Costner, was all kinds of fun to work with and I was very happy to do some film photography for the shoot. Most of the highlights of which were posted by Laura at our collaborative website, Drt & Ink, and the digitals along with a great writeup about El Origin have been posted on Laura’s blog. (Recognize the scooter in those shots? Thats my Kermit..)
Michael Blake and I have and will be working on some musical creations this Fall and Winter, I’m excited for where they may take us. We’ll do our best not so sound like singer/songwriters.
Laura and I hooked up with Tom Lehman & Co. for some outdoor enjoyment in early August when she was visiting from Nashville for a few weeks. We’d wanted to do some camping while she was here and I was finally able to simply take a day off work to accomplish the necessary freedom of time to spend some of it in the wilderness.
The afore-mentioned Tom happened to be camping that same weekend and invited us to enjoy with his crew what is quite possibly the most amazing camping spot I’ve ever seen. The view of the Hood River valley and Mt. Hood itself was amazing, and enjoying the weekend with friends and especially with Laura was perfect.
