Looking for a good way to lose 5 months and spend all your money? Buy a house. We closed on our property April 1st (how's that for an auspicious date?) and went straight into "put your head down and work" mode to get it ready to live in. I finally looked up last week and was shocked to find that the summer was over. Over. It disappeared in puff of of sawdust and a swirl of bent nails. Now, I don't mean to complain. We've been lucky enough to have a ton of help from friends and family all along the way and the house is looking pretty incredible. But still...Holy #$%&. What happened to summer? It's just...gone. And I hardly made any photos. That's the worst part.

On the up side, the end is in sight. I'm not saying the house is done. It's not. Maybe it never will be. But it's done enough that we can give up for a while, and do something else. And that means I'm getting back to doing more photo work in the next month. I've got a handful of shoots scheduled already and more in the works. Keep your eyes peeled for some new work. I'm almost back on the map.
