Wonderful Wyatt

Last week Wyatt came for his two year portraits.  Talk about personality PLUS!  His mom Debbie gets lots of credit for knowing what she wanted and for her vision.  We had a great time...Well, I should just let the images speak for themselves.  Check these out...




Thanks to both Debbie and Wyatt for an awesome time!

Patten, Shape and Texture

Just got back from PPWM (Professional Photographers of West Michigan) monthly meeting and was honored to have won the monthly print competition.  I shot this at Costco while wandering around last week looking for inspiration.  I thought of the "soldier" reference people often make...this is a whole army!

Mrs. Moore's heart dissection

Mrs. Moore's 6th grade class at Grandville Central dissected a pig heart today as part of Science.  Here Mrs. Moore is explaining how to locate the different valves of the heart.


This is my son Ben - he is in Mrs. Moore's 6th grade class and loves it!
The students used a straw to go thru the valves - I'm glad none of the kids decided to use the straw in a more traditional way!
The webbed area at the top of this image is the right atrium.
Mrs. Moore commented on how wonderful this particular pig's valves were!
The stringy stuff that is being suspended by this student's finger is the aortic valve - it was REALLY strong!
I laughed when Mrs. Moore held up this blood clot.  She went onto explain to the kids that to avoid blood clots they must continue to get some physical activity - that means getting up and out - preferably outdoors - and what it doesn't mean is more time in front of the computer or video games! WAY TO GO MRS. MOORE!

Last Friday, February 6th Grandville's Grandview Elementary hosted a Father-Daughter dance, Under the Sea.  A good time was had by all!  I had the honor of doing the portrait photography for the event.  These are some pretty lucky little girls!  Thanks to the dad's for making a memorable night for the girls.  A special thank you to all the parent and student volunteers that helped make the event a huge success!  Following are some images from the evening.  Students will be receiving their portrait packages before the week is out.
