So, I have been shooting for the Phinney Ridge Neighborhood Association(PNA – http://www.phinneycenter.org/ ) since last summer…

Lot’s of fun, great practice and tons of diverse shooting opportunities!

To see the collection, ongoing, check the flickr sets here:

I just got back from shooting a concert at their center called “Saturday Nights at Phinney Ridge”. This concert in particular was put on by the Seattle Folklore Society ( http://www.seafolklore.org/ ). The headliner was Dick Weissman ( http://www.dickweissman.com/ ).

To see the set I have of Dick, check the flickr slideshow here:

Dick was a lot of fun…a great story teller…I loved his bits about Bob Dylan!

But the stunning images of the night came from the gorgeous Sarah Sample! While clearly talented and a funny story teller, it may have been her high cheek bones or perhaps just her joyous expressions that really made the images work. I don’t know…but whatever it was, I really enjoyed going through these:)

Here’s a few…

Hope everyone’s new year is kicking off well…
