My first post in 2010! And it's Feb already! Lots to announce? No. No shoots planned, no trips planned, nothing, nothing, nothing.

I'm looking forward to the weekend. I need some rest! I have been working like hell during the past few weeks, trying to save a couple of projects I "inherited" from colleagues. Managing expectations, managing risks, cleaning up financials, improving stakeholder confidence and commitment, chasing lazy team members, reporting, advicing, convincing and persuading the board, that kind of stuff. Sounds worse than it is, in...

Now that I'm back to working I miss the oceans of time I used to have for a couple of months, although I do enjoy the new job a lot. I'm full of energy and because there's tons of new things to learn I work long days. Which doesn't mix very well with my late night experimenting with the Cakewalks Sonar software I installed last...

Started on my new regular job (very satisfied after two weeks), enjoying my new car (V70 familty vehicle), very lucky it didn't rain during the Zevenheuvelenloop, ordered Sonar 8 Producer edition to bring my home studio back to life, painted the veranda, installed Windows 7, had lunch with Lilith, still working on the USA photo book (things go terribly slow, I'm never satisfied, also...

I finally managed to work myself through a few thousand images of recent shoots and some commercial work, yesterday I came home after a day of shooting with another 600+ pics that I have to go through

Some other updates: I finally bought a new car, looking forward to pick it up tomorrow. Dutch Railways have driven me crazy the last couple of weeks (100%...

FInally I uploaded a new set to my PBase galleries: Henrike.

(not typical SG stuff, but a great model to work with)

Back from holidays! Most relaxing and relaxed holidays ever I believe. Lots of good Italian food, beer wine and grappa. I didn't bring a camera (first time in my life) and didn't miss it. Well, a little bit when I paid a visit to Florence. But I've been there a couple of times before so no reason to feel guilty. Here are some oldies: My...

More than two months ago since my last update here. Not much to add lately, although I've been busy with a lot of things, work related mostly. I still haven't found time to start working on my USA photobook, but I did some sorting and basic corrections on a draft selection of 200 photographs.

Since April I've been working out a lot. I registered for...

I just returned from a two week trip to the US and I'm back in the office again (what's new). Pictures will follow soon, I uploaded about 800 to my pc and will need some time for sorting,editing and making a new photo book out of it but there will be a preview in a day or two for those interested.

My internet connection at home has finally been fixed so I'm re-connected to the world.

In the meantime I've been troubleshooting a friend's website, started a psychology course, got a new veranda built, had a car accident (no personal damage), went back into a rigid fitness regime, planned and booked my next US trip in April and celebrated my wife's MBA graduation.
