Nothing off the chopping block What I learned from Bill Murray
Written by Cindy Patterson on January 29th, 2015I began running today. I’ve run plenty of other times, in fact most of my life I’ve run for recreation and leisure, but I had taken a hiatus. I run for so many reasons. Because my pants feel tight, because I feel blue or maybe I feel “blah.” I run when I feel a little [click title to read more ;)]
Taking inventory Daydreaming and Grocery Shopping
Written by Cindy Patterson on January 21st, 2015Instead of setting some goals for myself this year, I decided to take stock of my life. With everything I do, I ask myself why am I doing this? What is my main motivation?
My love affair and the year I resolve to change
Written by Cindy Patterson on January 8th, 2015
You don’t have to worry, I still love my husband very much. I’m beginning to wonder, though, if I love myself more. A lot more! You see, I’ve been casually observing the thoughts that run through my head, and it would seem I am obsessed with myself. From the time I wake up in the [click title to read more ;)]
Photographer Needed The Happy Couple
Written by Cindy Patterson on September 22nd, 2014When people find out that our oldest, Jessica, is getting married, invariably one of the questions they ask is, “Who’s going to be the photographer?” Her father will be walking her down the aisle, after all. But, before we ever get to that point, Greg’s been able to do for her what he’s done for [click title to read more ;)]

Written by Cindy Patterson on September 16th, 2014
We like to post some of the images we take of a particular subject as often as we can. They ask for it and, well, it’s good publicity for us! Here’s some of my top picks from just a few of the senior “casual” sessions. We call them casual, because they’re not wearing their graduation [click title to read more ;)]
So, What Have We Lost?
Written by Cindy Patterson on August 28th, 2014While perusing new book titles on Amazon I saw one that caught my attention. What could a book titled “The End of Absence” be about? I wondered.

Written by Cindy Patterson on August 21st, 2014
It’s always sunny in Nacogdoches…We have to say goodbye to a longtime friend and co-worker today. We hired him within a year of moving into the renovated frat house, and he’s become just as valuable to us as our moving into a new location was ten years ago.
School Picture Day Not your Grandmother's school pictures

Traditionally, school pictures were synonymous for “the worst picture I ever took…ever!” I don’t know if we cringed more at the creepy guy in the leisure suit behind the camera or when we received our school pictures a few weeks later.

Change and Hard Work
Written by Greg Patterson on July 25th, 2014
Daniel, Class of 2010 I was remembering and maybe reminiscing a bit to when a photograph was a product of the darkroom.
