I traveled to Virgina this week to honor my friend david. I’ve known david for over 9 years, photographed him, designed 17+ CDs and been on ‘staff’ for most of those years. I know for sure he has seen the end of my lens more than any one person.
The world lost an amazing writer and musician and I lost my friend. In this great loss, I can not and will not forget what I found. Lynn, Susan, Kelly, Elaine, Craig, Mackenzie, Kelly, Andy, Abbie, Brant, Tyler, Jace, Bob, Lisa, Brian, Alan, Lanette, Chuck, Jeanie and on and on and on…..
We were tie-dye clad (although missing a green/white bandana in this pic) for david’s service.
Some might think I found closure in Virginia, I absolutely did not. I found open. Thank you God and david for open. Both are continuing to bring beautiful people into my life. Amen!!!!
I have so many many pictures… Here are a few including this first one, the first click.
Always a cup of joe : )
“Love” cover shot in a coffee shop and holding his love. Not an accident of course ; )
I call this space the ‘cash register’ lol, The light is so beautiful here I always sell something. It was beautiful this day too!
We visited this bridge many times for shoots and a tv interview. This particular time, david’s cousin Lynn and my bestie was on light duty. The results included album artwork and laughter beyond control. It was a great day!
Real fans may see the Rusty Brick Road cover here ; )
The laugh always came with a tip of his head downward. This was a big tip, lol. I photographed david in so many places, it is difficult not to remember those moments when I am there again. Every time I was at this location, I’d send him a picture text like I’m just sure he’d want to know I was there again.
See…proof
See….
In my whole shooting career, I’ve been stopped by the police twice. The first time ever, I was with david. Here is the location….
The guy wanted to make sure I was ok. Yes like the bandana wearing peace professing guy was going to hit me over the head with his Martin guitar….. seriously, he wouldn’t hurt the guitar, ever ; )
You loved the world, we loved you back.
No resting in peace…. how about cause a little trouble in peace? How about joke in peace? How about tease in peace? How about sing in peace? How about laugh in peace? How about drink coffee in peace? How about love in peace? How about dance in peace? Forget the RIP boss, dance and love and sing and laugh and tease in peace. I believe it.
