This past weekend, it was my honor to participate in the first annual “Amy In Bloom” fundraiser auction, organized and held by Amy’s Treat, benefiting the patience of the Seacoast Cancer Center.

There was music,

food and wine,

lots of people,

and a few other locals.

An auction, of course, must have items,

and bidding

This one had a wonderful auctioneer with fun games like “Heads or Tails”

… congratulations to the winner! (She got a $100 gas card!)

Thanks a ton to all the donors and participants at this year’s auction. We raised a lot of money (I don’t have totals as of this writing) to help ease the burdens of cancer patients and their families, and we look forward to an even greater event next year!

I know I’ve been neglecting my blog posting lately … shame on me. With all the upheaval lately — the town condemning the apartment building I was living in, having to move to a temporary place on the beach, then having to search for and move into a new place, the death of my mother in January, and several trips back and forth to Salt Lake, and gearing up for the summer season — it just seems to have fallen through the cracks.

Now that things are settling down a bit again, I can catch up.

Here’s a selection of photos from recent sessions:

This young lady loves the movie Happy Feet

And her sister loves her

This fun bunch chose to have their session at one of my favorite places in Salt Lake, Sugarhouse Park

This young man is one of my favorite subjects ever … so energetic, expressive, dynamic, and full of life
