Still kicking!

My apologies for my absence.  I really have been busy.  The final primary is today and a bit of a break (maybe) until I’m off to Philadelphia at the end of July.  Did I mention that I was elected to be national delegate for the first woman nominee of my party?  Did I mention that I’m fundraising with my friend Kimi?  (Link to our page) 😉

This doesn’t count the other things on my plate which includes trying to finally tame our backyard.  

I do manage to get some photography in, but not as much as I’d like.  Mostly, it’s an iPhone world as demonstrated by this image I captured on my afternoon walk around the grounds.

President Bill Clinton visited Reno on January 22nd. I was the event photographer, which meant I did all the meet & greet photos and photographed the rally.

These young people worked their hearts out. If this is the future of America, we are in good hands.

It’s Caucus Eve in Nevada

One day away from the Democratic Presidential Caucus. A few shots from this morning before the crew arrives. We’ve been staging our canvassing and phone banking out of my house for the last 8 days.  To say my days have been full would be an understatement.

My view from the buffer zone

I had the honor of being the official photographer of President Bill Clinton’s visit to Reno last Friday evening at the Boys and Girls Club of Truckee Meadows. Rain and threatening snow, nor the relatively late-in-the-evening start time, did not keep people away. It was a full house, with a packed overflow room as well.

These guys have a tough job to do, and they do it with grace.
