Wow! What a GREAT Show and it happens again tonight (Saturday night). I was there the last two nights with a camera and tonight I get to sit and enjoy the sights and sounds. It never ceases to amaze me, watching the talent of the Indianola High School Vocal Department take center stage! The hard work that all of these young performers has put in has definitely paid off! Way to Go!

I will make discs of everything I photographed (about 700 images) available thru the music department at the high school for $20. $15 of this will be donated to the IHS show choirs.

Check out some of the photos I shot below... there are PLENTY more, so be sure to check back soon!

For those of you who have known me for a while, you know that I have two special girls in my life (besides my wife and daughter, of course!) Meet Allie and Faith. In honor of what feels like the 143rd(?) snow day of the year, I thought I'd share a pic I took of them, all bundled up for the weather! Enjoy!

After last weeks ice storm, it would almost make sense that we would get another winter storm this week! If you dared to venture outside today in central Iowa, you probably felt like you were venturing across the northern Tundra. I managed to make it into the studio today, just to find the back door covered by a drift - great way to start the day. Hope you're staying warm and safe today!

 You know the folks down in Florida are jealous of this. 

I had a great night Friday night at the Kids With Casey fund raiser for the Victory Academy here in Indianola. I was asked to be the MC for the evening, (Elizabeth winjum had no idea I am not the worlds most knowledgable guy about baseball) however I had a great night getting to interview our own baseball great Casey Blake. As you can see by the picture they had a wonderful turn out. I had a great time and I know everyone involved did. See how many kids you can recognize? Tim

I had a great time at the Indianola Swim meet Thursday night, even shot some great images. I did not realize how hot and humid it gets; it took 10 minutes for the camera to adjust. They faced Dowling and held up really well. Below is an image of Jake Lettington catching a breath doing the Butterfly (may not be the correct swim stroke but it was a pretty stroke anyway).

Enjoy, Tim

 Just thinking of a beautiful winter scene out at the lake. 

 Different day today with all the snow melting. Have an indoor shoot tonigt at the pool. Swim meet for Indianolashould be able to get some great photographs.
