In the Greenhouse
Cousin Thomas Routh works in his greenhouse on a warm afternoon last week in Grays Chapel, North Carolina. Thomas and his wife Lula Mae raise a large tract of vegetables they sell at the local farmer’s market. This year they are branching out into hanging flower baskets as well.

Phil Allison stands in for a lighting test on a recent commercial job in Greensboro. Phil has been working with me for several years and is a great assistant as well as a top notch photographer in his own right. In this business, you’re only as good as the people you surround yourself with.

Airport Goodbyes

During the holidays this year, the whole family was together. Older son Tristan and his wife live with us and younger son Devin was in from Dartmouth College in New Hampshire. Every flight in means a flight out and Mom having to deal with the goodbyes.
Local Faces
A short stop by Routh Oil Co in Lineberry, North Carolina yielded a few portraits opportunities on an afternoon last week. Eric Routh above and Dori Routh and Harry Whitaker below.

Liberty Farm and Garden
In rural areas of the country, general stores and farm supply stores act as social centers as well as retail outlets. I stopped by Liberty Farm and Garden in Liberty, North Carolina on a cold winter day to pick up some farm supplies. I was greeted by old friend and classmate Mike Foust on arrival and I found owner Melvin Nunn inside close to the stove.

Saturday Afternoon and Dressed for the Weather
It’s a Saturday afternoon and there is a light rain/sleet falling. Most of us are either out shopping at the mall or sitting in a warm place watching football or basketball. At Williams Dairy in Grays Chapel, North Carolina, for Greg, Rick and Michael Williams, Saturday means cleaning up the cow lot and getting things ready for milking a herd of Holsteins no matter what the weather.
