Then on to the Musee D Orsay. It is the most beautiful museum I have ever been in. The use of natural light and the staging of the exhibits is beyond compare.

Paris day 2

We started day 2 with the Arch De Triumph. There is so much history carved in every side it is hard to take it all in. They view from the top is spectacular.

We did a ton of walking and just hopped into what we thought might be interesting. We found so many beautiful churches, stores, cafes and bars that way.

The frescos were breathtaking!!

Montmartre and Sacre Coeur at night are brilliant.

We wondered into the greatest restaurant off of any alley somewhere.

Paris Day 1

It is so true that every room in Paris has a great view of the Eiffel Tower. But I loved the view from the gardens the best. You really were able to see the scale & beauty of it there.

The ficade of the Louvre was so beautiful. We caught it at sunset so it was warm & stoic at the same time.

Settle Xmas card shoot 2009

I seem to procrastinate more & more each year in getting my images for my personal christmas card. My intention this year was to have a family photo done but as you can see we never made it. I will be putting this on my new years resolution list! Here are a few I shot last week, BTW none of these made the card. You have to wait to get yours to see the top pics from the session.
