Monday morning Seattle greetings to all!

I’ve been on a whirlwind tour of the USA this past couple of weeks with shoots in Texas, Las Vegas and now Seattle for the past couple of days!

I’ve got a friend named Mike, Mike Rowe to be official. Are we BFF? Probably not. Have we consumed adult beverages together? Yes! In the past year, I’ve had the distinct pleasure of doing three different shoots with Mike and I have to tell you that it’s one of the highlights of my photography career! We’ve had so much fun on these shoots and I laugh throughout the day and it’s a very good thing. There are so many “Mikeisims” that occur during a days shoot like these and it’s just so much darn fun!

Our shoot in Las Vegas this past week was wonderful and it’s just a pure joy working with Mike as it always is! We had a special guest for part of this shoot and it was Caterpillar’s CEO, Doug Oberhelman. Doug and Mike did a number of video clips together and as usual, I was there to capture these behind the scenes moments. You could tell that they both had a great time working together and it goes to show you that even CEO’s can be a little star stuck with someone like Mike!

I’ve got to get rocking and rolling becuase I’ve got a couple more days of shooting here in Seattle before heading back to Peoria for a couple of days and then I’ll be down to the southern hemisphere for a shoot in Brazil to start off April!!!!!

As always, I hope that you have a wonderful week and thanks as always for checking out my photos!!!!
