Living Off the Land

I photographed Kim and Jack Fuhrmann along with their seven children last summer on their farm in Gretna. When I look through the photos, I still sense the peace and love felt on this family’s farm. Their genuine hospitality and great faith is apparent to anyone who enters their property. They are first generation farmers who are learning as they go and offering their children a simpler way of life. To hear their story and see more photos, click here.

Slow News Lynchburg Part II

This week has been anything but slow news for us here in Lynchburg but as I was searching through photos from the month, I found this photo from one of the many days we spend driving around looking for a photo to jump out at us. On a cold winter day such as this, my hours of endless searching lead me to one of my favorite coffee shops in town. Got to warm up and take advantage of the beautiful evening light.

Taylor Street Fire

LUnatics

Clemson (and ESPN) came to Liberty and slaughtered them 79 to 39. It was a lesson that students don’t care as much who wins or loses, they are just happy to be on TV.

“Get Downtown”

When I moved here four years ago, Lynchburg’s downtown was nothing but a few stoplights to drive through and a couple of grungy antique stores. I am so proud of our little city as things have been picking up, businesses have been taking over, people have been moving in all the old and beautiful buildings. Recently the city shut down the streets and allowed for a street fair full of vendore, street performers and entertainment. It was like I was transported to another place and time. I am proud of Lynchburg, the little city that could.

Playing catchup

As life gets busy, blogs suffer. It has been awhile since I have posted anything leaving a great many photos unshared. I am committing now to posting… and posting… and posting until all is caught up and right with the world. Happy viewing!
