May I present The Zilker Elementary Custodians!

These 3 fine people are the the custodians of Zilker Elementary School. THE Zilker of 78704 fame. Yep, the elementary school where they teach 'em to keep it weird from the pledge right on through 'til specials at the end of the day.

At the urging of my dear pal, Bernadette Noll of www.slowfamilyliving.com fame, I have started a project of photographing all of the adults at Zilker Elementary who spend their days working hard so our whippersnappers can have a positive soul enriching (and clean) educational experience from ages 5-10.





Now, don't you just wanna learn to pick up after yourself so they don't have to?!

Figs!

These are from a little fig picking/preserving adventure last summer. You might recognize the 'fig in the hand' shot from the current issue of edible Austin. I love reading it so much I read it to my daughter at bedtime. I'm lucky she likes gardening and cooking.

I fell off the face but now I'm back.

Some wedding guests really know how to pull focus.

Kids, I love 'em.

Some of my most favorite people to photograph are small and still in the single digit years.  Look at how clear and uncluttered they are.
