Team Rehab part II

Here are just a few of the really exciting tools you will find in a rehabilitation center if you are in need of an occupational, physical, or speech therapist.

In the studio with Rose

Rosie and I had a lot of fun with this shoot in the studio. We use a simple lighting style that was just fun, fun, fun!

Downtown Fun with Jared!

I don't think Jared knew what he was getting into when he decided to move to Spokane...he's a great model! When he wants to be!

Environmental Portraits with Jared Jobe

Jared Jobe is the apartment manager at College Terrace Apartments in Spokane, WA. He was kind enough to let me bombard his office with my lighting kit.

Beck's Harvest House

On the corner of Greenbluff Road and Day Mt. Spokane Road you will find a really great place, Beck's Harvest House!

The Harvest House is a cozy place that is hose to a gift shop, with gourmet food items.

A wine shop with wines that are from all over the world, and even just down the road.

Fresh produce picked from surrounding orchards...

and other homemade delicacies.

After having one of the Harvest House's special treats, you can go outside and pick your own produce! In this case, it's pumpkin patch!

The Harvest House at Greenbluff is a fun place to take the family for a great hands-on experience!

Life Through Fiona's Eyes

This is Fiona!

She has one of the best lives one could ask for!

She has a family who loves her.
(Here she greets my Grandmother)

She never has an empty dish.

But only gets fed once a day.

She has a great home to roam around in!

And even a heated bed to sleep in!

She has her favorite toys to play with...

and a warm lap to relax and watch tv in.

She is allowed to roam outside freely,

but not too far!

She even has a ramp to use, instead of jumping onto the furniture. She uses this to save wear and tear on her elongated spine.

I hope you have enjoyed this nice trip through Fiona's day. :)

Break In

On Wednesday, December 2, 2009 my world was turned upside down. It had started just like any other regular school day. I woke up, got ready, made my coffee and headed out the door for class. As I left my apartment I noticed that there was something wrong with my car.

It had been broken into.

My poor little car, was ransacked maliciously by thieves who didn't care that I nor my car didn't deserve this kind of treatment.

They busted out my driver side rear window and helped themselves to my personal belongings.

There was shattered glass everywhere through out my entire car.

They had used a screwdriver as the weapon of choice. Not only did they use it to shatter my widow...

but they used it to rip apart my dashboard and take my stereo.

(If you look closely, you can see the indentations that were left by the screwdriver while trying to get my stereo out of the dash.)

I was fortunate enough to have an apartment manager who let me park my car in an unoccupied garage while I waited for the auto glass repair man come to my cars rescue.

Noah showed up with a smile on his face and sincere condolences for the ordeal I had been a part of. He quickly assessed the damages and got right to work.

He cleaned out the remaining pieces of glass that were still hanging around in the window frame...

Vacuumed up the mess the vandals carelessly left behind...

and replaced my window to make my car complete again.

Although my car has all of the necessary pieces to make it whole again, it won't bring back my belongings or my sense of safety. It saddens my heart to know that there are people going through this sort of ordeal on a daily basis.
