Reid’s 5th birthday party
There’s nothing like the sound of about a dozen five-year-olds eating birthday cake and ice cream. They’re all “MMMMMMM…..” and “CHOCOLATE! CHOCOLATE!” and “YUM!” as loud as can be. They lick their forks and their lips. They laugh and smile and make you remember when you were five and your biggest problem in life was Mom not letting you eat a second slice of cake. Happy 5th birthday, Reid!
Women Photojournalists of Washington

My dear friend Abby at the Women Photojournalists of Washington exhibit opening at Honfleur Gallery in early November (I know – this post is way overdue!)

Miss Allison, photographer extraordinaire and super running buddy!

After the gallery opening, Jenna, Amanda and I took off to photograph as part of FOTOweek DC’s late-night photo contest. A few dozen Native Americans from across the United States set up teepees on the Mall to bring attention to their request for a Native American veterans day.

Crawling through the grass for a shot.

Amanda in “The Blair Witch Photo Project,” as Jenna said.

Warming up with jazz at Columbia Station in Adams Morgan.

Jenna’s happy with her late-night Jumbo Slice (which later fueled dancing at Madam’s Organ.)
