Author Photos

I decided a few months ago that I need to have professional photos taken. I hate, hate, hate getting my picture taken so when it came to picking a photographer, I was really particular. The photographer that photographed my wedding was awesome and she moved back into the area over the summer. Yay for me! You can check her out on Facebook.

Anyway, two weekends ago I met her down in the Stockade section of Schenectady for the shoot. The hour started with sprinkles, followed by huge gusts of wind from the river and finally sun. Both The Dark Man and the novel I am starting next month take place in this very neighborhood.

Here are some of my favorite shots:


St. George's church as a background.
 
 
 
One of my favorite houses on Front Street.
 
 
Very authory. Don't ya think?
 
 
Looking out over the Mohawk. Isle of the Cayugas in the distance.
 
 
Lovely set of gates.
 
 
Riverside Park
 
 
Another house on Front Street.
 
 
St. George and a few grave stones in the background. Most graves were moved to Vale Cemetery.
 
 
Street scene.

  1. Lovely photos, that bright colour really suits you, good choice.

    I left you a tag to the Liebster Award on my blog recently if you wanted to pick it up. Not sure if you have done it before it's for bloggers with less than 200 followers :)

  2. The food must taste good, giving the pleasure to eat it and must be produced respecting the environment, animal welfare and health The Italian way of eating exalts the genius of a people who pride themselves on artistic self-expression in drawing from the assets of a land that is intricately diverse by nature. Human and natural elements have combined in kitchens over time to engender an astonishing verity of dishes.
    That explains why IL FORNO does not represent a national eat of cooking so much as an encyclopedic fund of recipes, techniques and flavors of local inspiration.

  10. Being Sherwood Park, Alberta tile removal experts, have the peace of mind knowing that we do tile demotion with no damage to the wall underneath it. We do tile repair or tile removal in Edmonton at an affordable cost. You have professionals for your tile removal services Edmonton, with over 17-years of experience for client satisfaction. No job is to big or small for us to tackle whether in your home or commercial building. Bathroom and kitchen tile are installed to last. We install tile to the walls with adhesive using grout between the tiles keeping them in place and moisture out. However, water and moisture can damage the sealant over time, particularly in older homes where silicone caulk was not used. Modern day caulk was invented in 1896, so if your home is older than that, you will have problems with tile staying in place.In the 1920s, acrylic, butyl, and silicone polymers were first developed and used in sealants. By the 1960s, synthetic-polymer-based sealants became available and that’s what we use today for the best bonding. Removing wall tiles is more difficult than removing floor tiles. Wall tiles are usually set very close together with smaller grout courses. Our technicians use additional care to remove wall tile preventing damage to the surrounding tiles. When it’s time for floor or wall tile updates, we will do it to include a complete tile demo if necessary, and complete your new tile installation. We remove bathroom tile or kitchen tile and haul away the old tile and debris.
