Fashion Week recollections and musings.

The past year my dad, J Parson, pushed his music career ever higher with the release of his fifth CD.

My January saw partiers, beachgoers and teenagers. All in all, it wasn’t a bad start to 2011.

Recent months have seen a ramping up of my writing activities, something I’m happy to see joining my photos in various outlets, or even standing on its own.

An interesting thing happened after driving back into the United States from Vancouver, British Columbia in July. Something that would have been a nightmare had I been on assignment.

I used the opportunity to familiarize myself with Pittsburg, a town of roughly 20,000 people.

Jackie’s class work from her ICP class “Visual Thinking for Magazines.”

Flickr posted in their blog a “success story” of a member licensing his photo to Getty, whom have their fingers in every photo kool-aid around, and having it sell. Not only did it sell, but it was for an ADVERTISEMENT, which is the bread and sweet, sweet butter of all sorts of photographers.

It’s been two months since my last post from my summer travels in the American West. Having finished a separate spat of travels between then and now, and seeing how I left off previously in Montana, I’ll pick back up in Glacier National Park.

Jackie appears to have spent some time frolicking before buckling down for Fashion Week this past month.
