JSP Visual Week In Review ~ 02.26.22
Not much to lead with this week.
Me and the kids (and dogs) got to see my mom last weekend, which was great. I did some photos of her, with everyone, which reminds me that I’m a documentary photographer first and foremost. I’m documenting my life, their lives.
And I’ll make prints.
Also shot a couple of jobs this with, one a corporate assignment, one a creative one. Looking forward to share when I can.
And…there’s a war on. Whew. Of course, considering the aggressor, I’ve bene looing back at my 2009 trip to Russia.
Keeping everyone over in Eastern Europe in my thoughts.
You guys…get out there and take photos – of your town, your friends, your family. Document your lives. Celebrate humanity even while others are looking to destroy it.
It’s our gift.

The most productive times don’t seem productive at the time. The benefits of time with family cannot measured in a manner a ‘bean counter’ could measure.
The events of the past week have me remembering my teens and the news from both the battleground and the home front. And the music.
