Blast from the [photographic] past...







While looking for somewhere to post a homepage so people could find my links across the web I chanced upon an old Tripod account which I thought I had closed about 3 years ago. Seems there were shots from two weddings I hadn't thought about in quite a while.






Anyhow, here's a link to a few pictures from Steve and Hannah's









and Chris and Karen's weddings.









I generally don't like doing weddings due to the Bridezilla aspect. I don't like to share in the pressure they are feeling, prefering my more mello way of living. To their respective credits neither of these weddings were tense and both brides (and grooms) were a joy to work with.






It was almost enough to make doing weddings an attractive proposition.

And the winner is...

Javi "El Gallo" Vega


Javi is a friend of mine - I met him working at Franks Diner in Kenosha. Currently a student at the Illinois Institute of Art, he still comes up from the Chicago area now and then for breakfast at the diner... or when he has a fight scheduled in the Kenosha/Racine area.


This shot was taken last Saturday night at Racine's Memorial Hall. I'd been invited by a trainer to take pictures of his two fighters in the ring. His fellows did not have the best of nights, one losing a split decision and the other falling to one of the international up and comers in the Ultimate Fighting world.


For his part, Javi had a great night. He tore through his opponent (upper left) like a weed whacker through dry grass. It was a short, but sweet fight for Javi.

Hello all. Click on the picture above to get to your child's Santa photo. Your child's photo be on the linked page. If you do not find it contact me to reschedule a trolley shoot. Santa will be there the next couple of weekends so we have time for a redo if necessary.

Know that all the processing was done quickly and on a laptop computer to meet your scheduling, and as such the exposures may be off. You can fix this on your home computer or contact me and I can play with it on my end as time allows.

If nothing else, I will print you a copy at home and arrange to get it to you through one of the downtown businesses - either Mo's cafe or Carolynn's Coffee Connection.

If you need groups of wallet size photos, an enlargement or a high resolution image for a family Christmas card please contact me through the link on this page or at mikasi@gmail.com -but know that I have to charge for these services.

Here's to hoping you and your family have a fantastic Christmas!!!
