Curt Brannan

Dr. Brannan is a good friend of mine and a fellow teacher. I have been continually encouraged by him over the past few years. Encouragement has come through his words and his example. He has been through tough times and I have never seen him lac a smile (until I asked him not to). I think taking portrait of the ones you love or having someone take them for you is incredibly important. I am so thankful to Dr. Brannan for allowing me to make a few portraits of him especially since I know it was torturous for him to be in front of the lens. These images mean a lot to me and I hope that they may also be a blessing to his family now and down the road.

Our school has an annual even called "History Day" in which we celebrate the different time periods that we are studying. All the kids get to dress in costume for the whole day which is full of history related activities. I brought my camera and softbox to school to grab some shots of my students and these were all I came away with as my batteries went dead in my SB-900. I had more batteries... at home!

These are some shots of my dad. I had been wanting to use my softbox again and so I took advantage of him being here.
