i stopped by my parents house today, and my dad suggested that i blog about something unrelated to my photography that the general public might find interesting.  well, i decided to take his advice (which i don’t do very often) and do a post that is of complete randomness. and you know what – i kinda liked it, so i may try and do a random post once a week just to keep everyone out there on their toes.  todays post is a link to the most awesome-est website that i ever came across – Chuck Norris Facts – take a second and get yourself a little dose of chuck.

today i was asked to photograph this super cool birthday cake designed by shandi hogg from distinctive cakes.  if any of you are in need of a custom designed cake for your next event, be sure to check out shandi and her wonderful creations, here.

some of you have been asking what i got for my birthday, well my wife, lauren did something great – i highly recommend it to anyone who doesn’t know exactly what to get their husband or wife.  she went to bed and handed me her credit card and told me to go on a virtual shopping spree.  and i have to say, it was so awesome.  this is what i came out with:

Drobo - www.drobo.com  -  this is the greatest little external hard drive box for storing my ever growing collection of photographs and files.  it is very important to back up my clients photo shoots, and finally i will be doing it correctly.

2 Western Digital Caviar 500 GB SATA Hard Drives – these boys go with the drobo.

Lensbaby 2.0 - www.lensbabies.com  -  i can’t wait to start using this new lens, it creates a selective focusing and blurs the edges for a very unique look.  keep checking the blog for a peak at what this baby can do.
