I am married to my more rational other half, which means sarcasm runs high in our house. We had our first child (a girl!) in late June 2010.

 

We also have two cats. One of them I actually like. Now and then.

 

I call my husband Pants. It's short for Mr. Smarty Pants, which has been his nickname since about our fourth date. He pretty much knows something about every subject and will tell you about it in great detail if given the chance. You've been warned.

 

I love to read and take photos. Pants bought me a Canon 5D for Christmas (2008), but before that I used a Rebel XTi (I still love you XTi!). While I really like Flickr and the inspiration here I don't post or comment with a lot of frequency. Please do not take it personally. I am just lazy. Or drunk. One of those.

 

Oh and DO NOT steal my photos. I'll stab you. It's true. Ask around. I will protect my photos to the death!

Piper sees the truth and captures it in it's simplest, evocative and most compelling way. Her ability to photograph children is a rare talent.
