Apologies. I have not been keeping pace with my once a week promise. A whirlwind of activities as of late. So after that Saturday market at the couv I went for a “running shoot” A good opportunity for me to practice my motion shots. So here is Lisa all runner like and stuff. I have a bunch more pics from Seattle @ Pikes and graduation shots. I will have to give the Seattle trip its own post…maybe in a couple days.
So for now here is a couple pics from the shoot with Lisa.

Had fully intended to sleep until 11am then watch the match USA v England match, but the parental units decided to head off to the couv saturday market and woke me up to tell me their intentions. First off being woken up from a nice Saturday sleep-in is no fun…second I think I was having a cool dream.
So being awake now that mom had burst in yelling “Wanna go to Saturday market?” I thought I might as well since I was up.
Also in honor of the US victory (yes I am considering this a victory) 1-1
I took this at the market not knowing the outcome of the upcoming game. I must have known deep down in my heart I would have a use for it.
USA! USA! USA!
LOL HITLER
Snow Cone FAIL MMM….Rosemary, Thyme, Oregano…

Today was such a Portland day. I got up this morning thinking to myself “I think today is going to be awesome!”
Twas so picturesque…a picture perfect Portland day. Im not being sarcastic here I really do enjoy the rain. CRAZINESS! you say?
Numero Uno: I have allergies, and using my most awesome logic the rain keeps down all the nasty stuff that makes my eyes itch and my nose to run.
Numero Dos: When its raining just wear a rain coat or hoodie, and if you’re a fake Portlander or out-of-towner use an umbrella. What can you do when its hot? You cant run around in you skivvies now can you? Well you can, but you might get arrested for indecent exposure. Now only downside to the rain is stupid Portlanders who don’t seem to know how to drive in rain…I mean hello? you live in Portland and you can’t drive in the beautiful liquid sunshine?
I felt like I was going to drown today, but it finally let up and was just cloudy…perfection.
After work I was totally content with just being lazy at home when some friends invited me to go do something. Half of me wanted to stay home and do nothing, but the “get-off-your-bum” half won out.
As always I only post when I have pictures…so here are pictures as promised. I will now try and force myself to bring my soul snatcher whenever and wherever I can.
Glendoveer has a trail going around its course so we took a leisurely stroll there. The trail was nice and squidgy…it did wonders for our shoes.
I thought i would fiddle with an automate feature that adds a watermark…looks kind of tacky.

pretty sure i grossed out a lot of people with a title like that. I think my AP Lit teacher from high school would be proud that i came up with such an awesome hook. I have some explaining to do of course. Yesterday I went to the Starlight parade for the first time in the 16 years that I have lived here in Portland. The only reason I went out this year, battling through the sea of people, was to support a good friend (areyoulaughingtoo.blogspot.com) of mine who was running the starlight run that precedes the parade.
Finally God has given me an opportunity to take out my trusty soul snatcher/photo gun/smile catcher.
Twas a fun experience, stranger body rubbing aside. I had fully intended to post an entry that night, but was way too tired to do it…so here it is a day late.
My blog lives again. I hope to make an entry once a week though I make no promises. My blog seems pointless without pictures so if I don’t have pictures there will be no entry. If I do make an entry sans pictures you can call me out on my “promise” not to make an entry absent pictures. I will most likely laugh at you and say prove it. You will then point to my own blog, after which i will promptly delete this entry and say,
“I don’t know what your talking about. What do you mean it was here a minute ago?”
So this was our spot on 6th and Salmon or Salmon & 6th whatever is correct way of saying it.
Lisa’s Parents
So there were actually more funny costumes that were before these, but I totally spaced on the fact that I had a camera around my neck. I think I was just so mesmerized by the odd costumes that people wore.
Literally streaking by This chick is hot…oh wait….ima throw up now.

A Special thanks to Lisa for signing up for the run so that I can get off my lazy bum and actually use my camera for something.
Also to Niki for accompanying me spot hunting even though we totally could have gotten there earlier and gotten a better spot…but oh well. 
========================================================================================================
I don’t want to bump down this entry so I will mash my weekend into this giant one. I call these combo entries “spark-note” entries cuz I just summarize a bunch of things that happened into a….well…summary DUH!
.babies in the shower

No I did not see babies in the shower…thats just gross. Oh that reminds me of this picture: 
anyways….
J&C’s baby shower
Baby shower is a baby shower what is there to know? I have never been to a baby shower that actually had showers…when I say showers I mean precipitation. I’m not saying rain doesn’t fall when there is a baby shower going on, its just I have never been to one outdoors when it was literally raining. There is not much to say so here are a few shots i took. I totally did not take pictures of the couple. I dont know why….I guess I have always been a object oriented photographer (inanimate objects dont complain that they look too fat or blinked in the picture).
