Well, okay…row, row, row your shell…
Some shots of the Lowell Crew practicing. I was very excited to discover them. I can’t wait to attend a competition. I made sure to throw in a color photo, too… and some ducks.
Earthtones Photography - Simple Things...Special Moments
I haven’t had much time for photography the last 9 or so days. Patrick (my husband) injured his back and I had to take over the majority of his household and other duties as well as take care of him down to the smallest details, like helping him get up and down in a chair. The experience was eye opening for me. You never realize entirely just how much someone does or how valuable they are until something like this happens. The first 3 days were wall to wall labor for me, no rest for the wicked. I felt like I must be very, very wicked on those days.
Once Pat was able to hobble around a little on his own things eased up a bit, but it was still exhausting. Today things are better, though we’ve still not returned to normalcy yet. He can’t lift anything heavier then a half gallon of milk, which means the snow shoveling, wood hauling, fire building, all the manual labor that requires lifting is still up to me. But at least he’s walking and driving a little now. And he can stand long enough to cook himself a little something once in a while.
Now I have lots of catch up work to do, but I thank God for giving us both the strength to get through this, that he is healing, and that it happened during the slow season for my work.

Custom location photography is special. Unlike the studio where you are limited with your space and choice of backdrops, with custom location photography the world is your backdrop. Earthtones comes to you with portable lighting and modifiers, when needed, which allows you to come out of the studio box and bring your portraits to life in the big wide world. The choices are almost limitless for us to create awesome and interesting portraits. Your home, car, cabin, boat…on a horse, motorcycle, sled….hunting, fishing, baking, doing your hair and make-up, (or someone else’s), rocking on the porch, performing on the stage or on the field, at a party. Are you getting the idea now?
If you’ve never tried custom photography why not get a little taste with Earthtones Sampler Packages!? Contact Sharon for the code (the brochures are copyright protected with passwords). Come take a peek! You’re gonna love what’s inside.
