FONA

Monday morning Peoria greetings to all,

At the start of my wacky road trip a couple of weeks ago, I was up shooting in Geneva, Il. for a flavoring company called FONA. Fona is a company that makes flavorings for a lot of things that we eat and drink and I can tell you that it’s a pretty cool place. They have a lot of labs with technicians and lots of very smart people! One of the rooms that we shot in as a mixing room where they were making a flavoring product. Lucky for me that the flavor was orange because that’s one of my favorites! The funny thing was that after being in that room for about a half hour, I smelled like oranges! That’s why I love my job!

Here’s a couple of snaps from the day and you might get a felling for what Fona is all about!

Thanks as always for checking out my work and I hope that you have a great week!

Whatever it takes!!!

Monday Peoria greetings to all!

Last week was one of those weeks that I like to call, “Whatever it takes”! I was in Chicago on Monday morning for a shoot then drove down to Brunswick, Ga. for a shoot on Wednesday and then drove over to Houston, Tx. for a shoot on Friday. Before you think I’m too crazy and why didn’t I fly, we had a hurricane issue a month earlier and since we are still smack dab in the middle of hurricane season, it was much easier to drive. It also meant that I could take a lot more photo gear and that’s never a bad thing!

Three shoots and 3118 miles of driving, that’s quite a week!!!

Here’s a quick snap from Brunswick, Ga. and this is the Sidney Lanier Bridge which goes from Brunswick over to the Jekyll Island area.

It’s time to get to work, so I hope that you have a great week as always!!!!!

I’m out of the road once again this week, so it should be interesting and fun as it always is!!!!

OK, it’s August 2nd, where did the summer go? I just can’t believe how fast this summer has flown by. The kids will start going back to school in a few weeks and autumn will be in the air!!!!!! I’m telling you I need an endless summer, maybe I should move to Hawaii!!!!!

You know the summer is coming to an end when the farmers are out harvesting the hay!!!!

We’ve got one month before Labor Day weekend, so let’s get out there and have some fun!!!!

“Barrio Libre”

Sunny Peoria Monday morning greetings to all!

I’ve got one last goodie to share with you from my most recent trip to Tucson. I put together a slide show of the area know as “Barro Libre” just south of the Tucson downtown. In some ways it reminds me of the French Quarter in New Orleans with the bright colors that are used on the homes.

Here’s a link for the slide show on Youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5LNNP5VfbE

Let all have a great week and thanks as always!!!!

Tucson Botanical Gardens

Independence weekend Peoria Monday morning greetings to all,

Most of us have the day off today and that’s not a bad thing!

On this most Tucson trip a week ago, there a brief bit of time that we were able to get out and snap a few shots around Tucson. One of the spots that we hit was the Tucson Botanical Gardens and it was a really great place to shoot. Besides having a ton of native flowers, they also have a great cactus section with cactus from around the world and we did see some very different versions of what we see here in the states!

Here’s a link for a Youtube slide show that I put together with some of the snaps that I got that day! Youtube slide show link

Thanks as always for checking out my work and safe travels if you’re heading back home today!

Who’s Hungry?

Rainy Peoria Monday morning greetings to all!

I love shooting food photography! It’s not something that I get to do too often, but when I do, it’s always fun! I just did a shoot for Dixon’s Seafood and we got to shoot a lot of summertime dips and seafood salads and it’s making me hungry just looking at these shots!

What time is lunch?

Thanks as always for checking out my snaps and I hope that you have a great rest of the week!
