The Taming of the Shrew

If you think Shakespeare is something best left gathering dust in the bookshelf, you're missing out on a treat.  The Shakespeare Studio breathes life into the plays and in my mind, this is more along the lines of how Shakespeare himself would want his plays presented.  The TSS cast and crew put a lot of energy and humour into their portrayals of these works and it's a great experience for all.

These photos are from their most recent play - The Taming of the Shrew.  The simplicity of the set was a fantastic counterpoint for the creativity of the costumes, which had their own simple elegance.  The actors come fully prepared and undergo an intense two-week period of rehearsals for each play.  Don't miss out on their next performance: Hamlet, which opens this Thursday, with shows on 4-6 August and 11-13 August, at The Dancing Goat Theatre in Alpharetta (Johns Creek), GA.  Further information can be found HERE.

Photo Shoot - Suwanee GA Senior Photographer

'Tis the season for Senior photos - and this was a fun shoot.  To really capture the essence of a person, you need to put them in their element.  In this case, we have a young woman who loves everything horses.  Here we get to see her feminine side in a pretty summer dress, all serious while show jumping and lastly her barefooted sense of adventure, lying on her horse.  She makes that pose look easy.

High Shoals Falls

One of the things I love about living in North Georgia is the amount of hiking trails.  The hike itself is always thoroughly enjoyable, even in the sticky humidity, and more often than not you are rewarded with a beautiful waterfall, breathtaking vista - or sometimes both.

High Shoals Falls trail is a easy to moderate 1.2 mile hike just north of Helen.  Lovely for a hot day; the path is shaded from the sun by trees the whole way.  There are two waterfalls, both with a platform giving a view of the waterfalls while the refreshing spray drifts gently over to help you cool off.

 

Photo Shoot - Teens

This young woman was a pure delight to photograph.  Quick to flash her pretty smile for the camera and happy even to climb on top of a stone wall in a prom dress.

 

 

 

Jazz Festival

Having finally beaten Google/Blogger into submission, I can now upload photos.  Seems like a lot of people are experiencing this problem.

The Jazz Festival is an annual event held over Memorial Day weekend in Piedmont Park, Atlanta.  There's plenty of food to be had (I seem to have a theme going with these last two posts...) but what all the squillions of people come for is the music.  Atlanta put on lovely weather for the event and people played with frisbees, soccer balls and dogs, or just sat and listened to the bands.

Chilling out, ready just in case...

These two guys were awesome.  I found them right as they called it quits, dying in the heat.  After much "pretty please"-ing and promises to put photos of them on this blog, they laughingly agreed to let me get some shots of them.  Thanks guys!
