In news almost justifying the {blink} tag, my long awaited “hips” book is finally available for pre-order from Amazon. As of yet there’s not much info on the Amazon page, but you can read more from Chronicle Books. Once I know an exact release date (April-ish?) I’ll post details about parties, signings and whatnot. Stay tuned.

And I’ve made a new gallery of 1652 hips, vaguely ordered by color. Not dial-up friendly, I’m afraid. . .

I’ve made a dent in my backlog of weddings, here’s three more:- Sue and Stuart, Margaret and Eric and Lisa and Mike. Three more to come…

And and update on “Boobalogues,” the documentary on women’s relationship with their breasts I contributed a bunch of images to. You can now buy it from the filmmakers’s website for a mere $18. Although I am biased, it really is an excellent documentary.

Editing is hard. I’ve started to tackle a small mountain (OK, hill) of galleries and it’s painful to cut them down to size. You see, I start with up to 2,000 images and have to edit out about 90%. Painful, to say the least. That said, having too many “keepers” isn’t something I should complain about.

Anyway, here are a trio of weddings: Elise and Brandon, Janice and John and Shawna and Evan. More next week.

I’m not proud to admit it, but I have been known to procrastinate. Case in point - I have a dozen galleries to edit down and post. So what do I do? Shoot and post three others. The first is of the luminously beauty Dragana, who I met at the Post office of all places.

Despite the saying, children and animals are easy to work with. If you need any proof, I give you Kai and two brothers Ben and Nate.
