I did a great shoot late last week for an up and coming clothing designer. We were under the gun, timewise but were able to get some great captures that really show off the clothing line. Vicky and Laura were the models used in the shoot. I need to get them back for a day shoot around town.. I will add pictures soon

This is an interesting article. I have to cut and paste it in so It is not lost next week.
Eyes Can't Resist Beautiful People

Whether we’re looking for someone to date or sizing up a potential rival, our eyes irresistibly lock on to good-looking people, a new study finds.
Participants, all heterosexual men and women, fixated on highly attractive people within the first half-second of seeing them. Single folks ogled the opposite sex, of course. But those in committed relationships more often eyed beautiful people of the same sex.
“If we’re interested in finding a mate, our attention gets quickly and automatically stuck on attractive members of the opposite sex,” explained study leader Jon Maner of the University of Florida. “If we’re jealous and worried about our partner cheating on us, attention gets quickly and automatically stuck on attractive people of our own sex because they are our competitors.”
Maner's research is based on the idea that evolution has primed our brains to subconsciously latch on to signs of physical attractiveness in others, both to find a mate and to guard him or her from potential competitors.
But this evolutionary trick is not without potential romantic peril. Even some people in committed relationships had trouble tearing their eyes away from attractive members of the opposite sex. On the other hand, fixating on attractive people of the same sex as rivals could contribute to feelings of insecurity.
Maner found that men prone to jealousy kept a close eye on attractive potential rivals.
“When it comes to concerns about infidelity, men are very attentive to highly attractive guys because presumably their wives or girlfriends may be too,” he said.
Maner's experiments, which flashed pictures of attractive men and women and average-looking men and women in front of participants and measured the time it took to shift their attention away from the image, surprisingly showed little difference between the sexes.
“Women paid just as much attention to men as men did to women,” Maner said.The study is detailed in the September issue of the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.

I have been busy lately. I know i need to keep this blog, or Plog up to date. My last blog ran for 4 years with a tons of posts each month. This one I want to keep more towards the Photography industry.
so I shot this great couple Jason and Allison a while back for their engagement photos- they were having a wedding in Mexico so they would not get to meet thier photographer until they arrived atthe resort. On a side not they said not to hire the photog at the resorts! go with one you have access to more frequently than the one there.
Here are some photos
This one you have to see up close!

OUR BOOK GETS ITS FIRST REVIEW!
TITLE: THE WAY OF LEADING PEOPLE
AUTHORS: TIMOTHY H. WARNEKA, PATRICK WARNEKA,
AND LAO TZU
PUBLISHER: ASOGOMI PUBLISHING INTERNATIONAL, 2007
ISBN: 978–0–9768627–4-1
REVIEWER: DONNA COOMER, BETWEEN THE LINES REVIEWS
THE MODERN ARCHITECTURE OF ANCIENT WISDOM
Thoughts of superiority and having figured it all out, have been the accepted norm in the West for some time now. One only has to stop, look, and listen to realize this is not necessarily the case. Our “leaders” fall short every day without a clue. Luckily for us, we have Tim Warneka and his brother, Patrick, diligently working to change this with books like THE WAY OF LEADING PEOPLE. By taking the ancient wisdom of Lao Tzu, put forth in the Tao Te Ching(pro. Dow Duh Jing), and applying it to the modern architecture of current life, we get a chance to change this current way of thinking by becoming better, more informed leaders and over time, replacing those who currently “lead”.
Using Lao Tzu’s chosen format of verse, Tim and Patrick give us easily applicable versions of Master Tzu’s wisdom; “When leaders neither push nor pull/willingly, the people follow.”
As you read thru, choose a verse randomly or take them in order letting the ideas simply sit with you as you go about your day. As I learned when reading Tim’s LEADING PEOPLE THE BLACK BELT WAY, any job, any where, any time can benefit.
Absorbing the thoughts put forth allow yourself to ruminate on the real-life architecture that Patrick and Tim chose to frame the verses. Leadership is yet another part of life that is not black and white but subtle shades of gray. Patrick’s photographs can lead us thru the proffered wisdom “discovering the Way in-between” and developing the sense of strength and balance that great leadership thrives on.
