Ringling Bros’ final visit to Washington DC was last weekend and we got to go check it out. This tour’s theme is Out of this World and features a fantastic, cosmic flare. I loved all the planets, and astronauts, and intergalactic travel. A new twist was the inclusion of ice on portions of the floor. The clowns and acrobats incorporated seemingly effortless skating into their feats and tricks. Yes, the elephants have been retired, and they were missed, but the circus prevailed and the show went on, for this weekend and families in the DC area.
Descriptions and video will be coming soon. In the meantime, check out these Hasbro (Playskool) photos from Toy Fair 2012.

This is my favorite time of year for shooting outdoor photos… it’s nice and cool so your subjects won’t be hot and sweaty, and the fall colors add so much warmth and atmosphere to your pics. Also, with the earlier sunset times, we found that the golden hour, the hour before sunset, is a little easier to manage with younger subjects.

On Saturday we went to the Monster Jam – Havoc in the Harbor at the Baltimore Raven’s M&T Bank Stadium. This was the first Monster Jam at this stadium, and the crowd turned out. Featuring sixteen trucks, it was quite the show. Click below for more pics! Read the rest of this entry »
