Thanksgiving 2017
family time at the bay house
The days of Thanksgiving week are a blur. I intentionally worked to savor every moment of every day. Surrounded by family on the day, we conquered and devoured a meal for 25- two turkeys, people! It was a team of workers and servers acting on family love. I am blessed. We are blessed.
I know that every time I picked my camera up, it was to capture the "feels" of the time we all spent together. I needed to slow it down. This documentary is a way to rewind and watch it happen all over again. Enjoy! I love my big family.

This time of year, we are usually treated with fewer high humidity days and more colorful sunset displays. I knew all day long that I wanted to capture the sunset. I was just "feeling" it. Luckily, I'm not far from Mobile Bay to make a quick trip for a few photos. As I approached the location I wanted, I was in awe of the gorgeous phenomenon happening that evening called a "sun dog sunset". From what I know, it happens when ice crystals are refracted from the low sun on cirrus clouds. I was literally shaking in excitement as I took it all in with the camera. I felt blessed. Topping off the special Fairhope sunset, was a peaceful paddle boarder and his yellow lab gently cruising by across my frame. It could not have been any more of a perfect sunset that evening in my hometown of Fairhope.
