As mentioned yesterday, I’m off to Zion National Park to celebrate my 15 year anniversary. Just me and the wife - no kids, no computers, no nothing. Just hiking and a few photos.

A few things gathered over the past week or so to keep you entertained:

• Photoshelter Plugin for Lightroom
• Backup on the go
• Lightroom Preset Bonanza
• Using the Profile Editor, More on the profile editor from the guy who worked on it.
• An interesting interview with Tom Hogarty, Product Manager for Lightroom.
• A few tips/tricks for using Lightroom
• Lightroom 2’s Smart Collections are very cool.
• See you next week.

Well, the kids headed back to school today. Summers go by so fast, and before you know it, our front room is piled high with looseleaf paper, binders and lots of pink erasers.

The kids were in fine form this morning, new clothes on and ready to roll, so I threw my gray backdrop up and shot a few pictures.

Have fun kids! Its quiet around the home office today...

I’ve got a bit of a backlog of work to do, given the last few weeks of insanity, travel and more travel. It looks like things really won’t calm down until mid October, when my crazy calendar starts to open back up. I might actually be looking forward to a quiet fall. Sure, that will happen.

I was in the studio Saturday with a lovely young lady and here are a few of the excerpts from that shoot:

Hope you had a great Labor Day - we spent the entire time getting the house clean for the impending parental visit. My wife and I will be going to Zions National Park for a long weekend away from the kids to commemorate 15 years of marriage.

My wife rocks. And to celebrate, we’ll go climb thru oodles of giant red sandstone in one of the most beautiful places on earth.
