Urban Ventures

I got such an early start today that I never
sat down to post a blog. When I finally sat down
to the computer and realized that, the
sensation was much like going out without ear-
rings or forgetting to put your watch on or
something. ANYway, this is what I got up early
for today....I met two young men (high school
sophomores) at their place of employment in
downtown Minneapolis. I photographed them
doing their jobs and with some of the traders
and then I asked if it would be okay if I took
them down to the street for some fun, urban
street shots...here goes...thanks to the firm
and to "A" & "M" for allowing me the opportunity.







Handsome, hardworking, sweet, young men.
They will go sooo far! They work to supplement
their high school tuition. Smart.

I'll be heading back downtown soon to cover
a couple of other events looking for more
photo ops for the design team that is working with
Urban Ventures. This has been such a fun assignment!

Oh, and this week I have a Friday wedding back
down at the Nicollet Island Inn. Then Gary and I have
a night planned at the Sheraton on Saturday.
A little outing...for fun. Just the 2 of us!
No reason...just a night out.

Hey, Mark Brooke. Nice to hear from you!!
