Valiyev Newborn



Monday, May 24, 2010  •  Portraits

yup the baby arrived!

However in Kazakhstan it is the tradition for the baby to stay at home for the first 40 days - I was lucky to be allowed to see him so we could post web images for their family back home.









On May 18 it was the 40th day and Arman kindly asked me to the celebration at Cafe Dolce.

Blessed with sunshine, friends and family. This was such a great new thing to be a part of.



Traditional food was served and then their was the bag!



Saltanya gave out gifts to each person - something to wear - that in turn when you wear it you send good energy to the baby.



I got a scarf and flag!



Some warm fun slippers!



Grandma had come all the way to help with the baby's arrival and be here through the first 40 days.





Congratulations!! Thank you so much for asking me to such a special event.

Workshop Whimsy Part 2



Friday, May 21, 2010  •  Personal

This was a grab shot of someone else's idea but the light was so gorgeous it was hard to resist.



The second day we had an exercise where we drew a word from a hat and had to free write for 15 minutes about that word. I drew PEACE. Amazing how many pages I scribbled - it is a word that has been a big part of my life recently - trying to make peace with a broken arm, and other such things. Anyhow if you want a fun exercise put some words in a hat pull one out and write!
Then go out and photograph some of those words!!

Here is my favorite image for peace.



I then played with the idea of what makes us feel peaceful - for me meditation is a big one.



Finding a quiet spot.



And then there is Yoga. Shelly has amazing balance and grace she could hold this pose balanced on a rock in the water for a good few minutes!
Thank you Shelly - and thank you Julianne for such a great few days. Thank you all the other folks at the workshop - for the companionship, ideas, and new ways of looking at things.

Have a good weekend all!
