feeling..

Posted by amy (Nanaimo, BC, Canada) on 6 May 2008 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

So here's Brandi (Sidney York). The reason I went to hear her sing on Sunday was because she was in a song writer's competition. She won best up and coming songwriter!!! We are soo incredibly proud of her. Brandi is a very talented young woman and deserves all the accolades she's getting now and will in future. I got this candid of her as she was warming up before her performance.

I've been a little MIA again. This past weekend was a flurry of driving all over the place. Between driving up to Beaver Hill Lake and back on Saturday then down to Calgary on Sunday, I haven't even been able to do much of anything. That's why I didn't even post yesterday. It's just a crazy time right now. And with training my replacement, I haven't even been to cheat and use the highspeed at work for visiting (shhh, don't tell them, though LOL). Wow! Sounds like I'm whining again! LOL Ok, I am...just a bit.

You can view my gallery of images and calendar for sale at: cute but stupid . I'm slowly adding more to the site and if there is something in my portfolio you would like to purchase but is not available on my site just contact me and I'll make it available.

I appreciate all visits and comments and thank you always... ;-)

I love the inclusion of the bit of guitar. It gives the shot a dynamic focus.

Jason Kravitz from Brussels, Belgium

I listened to some of her tunes on myspace - I like her style - it reminds me of a lady named Leslie Helpert from Georgia.

Great portrait too

Ronnie 2¢ from London, United Kingdom

As António says back there, it is that little glimpse of the guitar that makes this truly connect. A lovely portrait.

drphoto from Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom

A really nice candid - and even better in large =D) I'm with Antonio and Ronnie, that tiny little detail allows my imagination to paint the rest of the scene or invent a story behind this image.
