Megan: What are you doing Friday?

Maike: Umm... oh yeah, shooting firefighters.

Megan: Ooh, need help?

Maike: [laugh]... ha, yeah, you want to be my bag lady?

Megan: Sure, I could help carry things for you and then be like, 'Hey firefighter, need me to carry anything for you?'

Maike: [in a girly voice] 'like your hose?'

This past Wednesday, I photographed an event for Gleaners Food Bank here in Indianapolis.

They are awesome, and it has been a pleasure to be able to photograph events for them.

Here are my three favorites from the event.

This one is fabulous, because there are 4 people cutting a tiny ribbon with giant scissors :). What's not to love about it! And look at their faces, all so intent on this silly traditional task. love it.

And this one I LOVE!!! All four of them are all smiley and real. Genuine. Totally dig it :).


And then the cake, with awesome lighting from Conseco guy Jay Jones :). I'm partial to it, personally, great leading lines, great flare, cool composition. They will probably not use it for anything, but dang it, I WILL display it on the blog for others to enjoy as well.

love,
