brian … boitano? yeah, not so much

Happy New Year!

Ok, yes I know I’m exactly 14 days late – but, it’s the thought that counts, right? Again, I must fall back on the popular excuse these days – been busy . . . yadda, yadda, yadda . . . blah, blah, blah . . .

However, I had the most amazing trip to New York City on January 3. I was there for nearly a week to shoot an absolutely amazing wedding in the heart of the city. I’ll be posting a few pictures from that wedding soon (along with many other recent sessions), but in the meantime please enjoy this horrific image of me skating in Bryant Park the day I left New York (thanks, An!). Would you believe I was literally flying around the rink at the moment this image was captured? If you said “no”, then you’ve obviously seen me skate. No fair! Ok, so three-year olds were skating by me and leaving me in their wake. Brian Boitano I am not but I am very proud to say that I stayed on my skates the entire time and my butt remained ice/moisture/pain-free the entire hour! I was quite proud of myself, needless to say.

When I arrived in the city it was 16 degrees. By the time I left the temperature had climbed to a “still very cold to Brian” 62 degrees! I was actually breaking a sweat skating around this tiny little rink. Ok, perhaps the lather was predominantly stress-induced but I was sweating, nonetheless.

I promise, more blog updates to come soon. So much has happened – several AMAZING photography sessions, a new car, some fantastic gift ideas from the holidays that I must share, etc.

Whew! It’s going to be a very busy 2008, I can already tell!
