My justified absence

Kelly Ry — Sat, 29 May 2010 23:56:54 +0000

I realize the blog has been a little slow this month, and in particular, the past couple of weeks, but I have an excuse, a really good one, that fully justifies my absence. You see, this little guy entered the world a few weeks ago and I had to visit him and his big sister in Portland. I love being an Auntie.

A common scene around my sister’s house, Kellen’s adoring big sister will walk by and simply must stop to kiss his head.

I’m leavin’ on a jet plane bound for my second homeland, Denmark, to attend and photograph the wedding of my dear, dear friend Anne. I will check email periodically but if you don’t hear from me for a few days, it will be because I’m immobile from overdosing on all of the Danish foods I miss.

It was almost mean of me to ask two 3-year olds to hold off on eating their donuts for five seconds while I continued the documentation of our culinary field trip to Vancouver, WA.

Happy New Year ~ I’m Back!

I’ve just returned from over three weeks away, visiting family, friends and photographing some adorable families & couples. Among other fun times, my sister, niece and I, along with a friend and her son, trekked across state lines to visit Weinerschnitzel, a much beloved culinary indulgence that all of us had been without since moving from California.

While away, I challenged myself to take the time off from blogging and all but the mandatory web/email activities, hence my absence here. But I promise that soon the blog will return, filled with lots of great shoots to start the new year off right. And to all the couples & families I will be working with this year – I CAN’T WAIT!

When I was in Portland in August visiting friends, family & shooting a marathon of family sessions (see posts from the end of August, pretty much all of September & beginning of October), I also shot a little just for fun. My dear friend Molly & her family are among my favorite subjects to capture so when she suggested we go on a walk with her adorable 3-year old ‘B’ and explore her charming new neighborhood with our cameras, I was more than happy to tag along.
