I shot some engagement portraits in Germany for my best friend from childhood, Rachel and her fiance, Lutz.
The light wasn't great for the shoot, but did set the mood for some fun black and whites. Here are some of my favorites.

Favorites from Germany
Merry Christmas everyone -
Here are some favorites from the trip to Germany. The first several are from the Zugspitze, which is the tallest peak in the country. The following images are from sites and cities in the areas surrounding Bavaria.

Santa-baby
My recent visit to Germany revealed an unsettling truth about the Germans.
They have a fascination with St. Nick that's just down right creepy.
The "help-me" Santa.The "peer-over-my-shoulder" Santa.The "I'm-just-taking-a-look" gas station Santa.The "one-that-got-away" Santa.The "Santa-doesn't-feel-so-well" Burg edition. And of course, the "two-Santa-chasing-headless-Santa" version.
Merry Christmas everyone. Let's just try to keep the bearded guy to a minimum.

I just saw Jesus
Joe and I are in Germany for a week. I'm not going to post anything more until I get home and sort through some of the images, but here is one from a small church we visited in Partenkirchen near the Bavarian Alps.

Christmas Cruise
Yesterday I covered the 2008 Christmas Cruise on the Foss Waterway for people with disabilities put on by Metro Parks Tacoma. I had a lot of fun with the gracious people who let me accompany them on "My Girl," a 69' custom yacht owned by Brown's Point Charters and Yachts.
I especially enjoyed visiting with Burtt Droge, the man in the first and last photographs, who experienced his very first trip on the waterway.

Burtt Droge of Tacoma gives Santa his wish list over the citizens band radio Sunday on captain Paul Stanfill’s 69-foot yacht, My Girl, during the SeaFair Christmas Cruise on Tacoma’s Thea Foss Waterway. Metro Parks coordinated the event for people with disabilities. The festivities included a spaghetti feed and a dance party.Most of the boats in the Christmas Cruise were yachts, with one large exception – the Army’s Malvern Hill, a 174-foot landing ship.
