Banner Design

kate — Thu, 27 Aug 2009 20:36:35 +0000

I recently designed this 2×5 banner for Recycled Love Rescue. The dog-starlet photographed and featured on the banner is ~~Francie~~ I mean…Frida.

Several months ago, Frida was in an accident involving a drug raid, and was shot several times in the face. She had a broken jaw, and damage to one ear. For a while, she ate though a feeding tube, but in true pitty-fashion, she healed with super-speed and is doing fantastically well.

The darling formerly known as Francie has moved to her forever home where she was renamed Frida and is currently living happily ever after with her awesome new people.

As for her adorable face and ginormous ears: Recycled Love Rescue will exploit the cuteness at future adoption events in an effort to remind people to give the gift of adoption

Cafe Hon Crab Omelette

Denise called me this week to ask if I knew anything about food photography. I responded that if it looks even kinda pretty, I can take a pretty picture of it! So I went by the Hon and the marvelous Annie and Dottie make a butt-kickin’ omelette that we decorated real fancy, Hon!

The pictures will be in the September issue of GO, which is AirTran Airways’ inflight magazine. We loved the ones with the crab beads, but they got nixed from the magazine since you don’t really get jewelery in your food at the Hon. We don’t wanna be misleadin’ to the Bawlmer vist’rs.

Alex told me a story.

I took some quick head shots for Local Realtors Mindy Weisenborn and Sandy Stillman yesterday. Mindy brought her son inside, Alex, and he had just woken up from a nap. For a minute I wasn’t sure if he’d cheer up out of nap-land in time for me to snap some shots of him, but just as he was leaving he decided to perk up and tell me a story. Once upon a time…

Alex tells a story.

Alex, still telling a story...

Alex getting very excited about his story!

Mallory Square: The Catman

kate — Tue, 03 Mar 2009 20:22:46 +0000

The Catman at Mallory Square in Key West is a show not to be missed if you visit. In my experience, cats are cute. In my experience, cats are also indignant, rude, self-seeking, appalled by the notion of “neediness” and not driven by much of anything except for sunshine to sleep in, catnip and the occasional laser-beam.* The Catman, however, has discovered the blend of sushi that fits just right if you’re trying to train one of our feline friends. These cats are something else.
*Don’t be offended by my opinion on cattitudes. I have three of them, it can’t be that bad!

Buster and Queen Maxine

Meet Buster and Maxine. Two of the most complementary counter-pooches I’ve met to date. Curmudgeonly old buster isn’t one for a photoshoot, but his sparky, spastic, choc-full-of-energy little sister sure is. They were a treat to shoot, and I’m looking forward to working with them more once spring blesses Baltimore with its beautiful colors.

Key West Love

kate — Tue, 03 Mar 2009 17:27:30 +0000

We just got back from Key West. I love it there, more than anywhere else that I have seen in this country. It’s just enough of weird meets comfortable to make the perfect place I’ve seen yet. I think that I took somewhere upwards of 1,500 photographs while I was there, and will be sharing them in the coming weeks. If you’d like to see more of them as I post them from different collections, go to springray.smugmug.com
