Evan & company {6. 14. 08}

Last weekend I finally got to do a shoot with my old high school pal, Brittany, with her beau and son, Evan. The weather was perfect, but the little one was NOT so fond of all my snapping - which was amusing.
Here's a preview from our full shoot!


Evan & his "guests" - as he called his beloved stuffed animals. :)


Evan didn't like the paparazzi so we told him i was shooting the trees behind him. :P


momma britt and evan. {cuties!}


adorable little family.


luke + evan.


another 'i despise paparazzi' shot, ha.

Mixology @ the Eiteljorg

The Eiteljorg (Indianapolis) was a-buzz (literally) during "Mixology," sponsored by Canadian Mist. I covered this event for www.nuvo.net and learned all sorts of new things about being a master drink mix-stress (woot!).
For the "official" slideshow of the event and more info www.nuvo.net (photos).


as mixology students, we learned ALL sorts of ways to mix the whiskey-esque alcohol, Canadian Mist (ooh - aah).




Not only did we get cheap drinks but f-a-b hors d'oeuvres - YUM.


and the dessert table was even BETTER! ;)


The "Mixologist" expert taught us about the history of alcohol and how to best mix with Canadian Mist ::yawn::. The best part was when he handed out his concoctions to lucky audience members/students!




mixing and mingling at the Canadian Mist bar. All of us attendees got 2 drinks for just 5 bucks - not too shabby!

menagerie '08

i should have posted this at least a month ago, but, you know how it goes ...
so if you know me, you know i simply ADORE ABSURD+art+beauty.
WELL, my dear friend amber and i visited an art gallery in Indy called Menagerie ...

MENAGERIE - the venue.


glamming it UP pre-menagerie gallery - me 'n' amb-tastic.


can i get this in a size ... ? ;)


i have a foot fetish when i have my cam on me ... ;)


loverly ...




i couldn't resist snapping this little woman ... :)



art? or a teenie tiny mertle-turtle with a canon strategically placed on it's teeny shell back? {you decide}



another fab artsy chick @ menagerie (pomp chick's pal :)). loved them both - they had fly style!



the most RAD chick we met at menagerie - she definitely had the foxiest/only pomp in the joint!



i enjoy random crotch shots rather a lot - JK - just another random snap worth sharing (or so i thought).


creepy 'n' funky appeal.


amb-tastic, driving us back after the show (we left fashionably early) - pipe in tow, of course!


post menager shinangians @ amb-tastic's apt. her pipe is just too old-man-chic!


until next time ... keep it snappy, baby - yeah!

Evening of Irish: Dinner at the Claddaugh

my mum and i enjoyed as close to an irish feast as we could (without being IN ireland) at the claddaugh pub @ metropolis.

the best, creamiest spinachy/artichoke dip - soft 'n' crispy fries/aka: chips - goooey sandwiches and baileys 'n' coffee sent us soaring off to a gluttenous heaven (where i'd hope to run into some true irish blokes - the only thing lacking during our claddaugh visit - ha).
