This photo was taken last summer during our 10 day vacation at Winnipeg. It was really nice to see the children together again after 8 years. They became closer and are all looking forward to see each other again.

This was a special shot in natural light taken at Skansen Craft Village outside Stockholm Sweden, 1984. The lighting of the scene was magical and I took it with a Minolta x-700 on Kodachrome 25 with out flash! The work of the potter was awe inspiring as this little child seems to be comletely drawn into his process. The spiritual principal this shot reflects speaks of a Father teaching his children his ways. Very skilled molding is going on here! And as the child face portrays, it is a wonderous thing indeed!

Between Cross Country ski runs...

True love in 2012 :)

A mother and son share a great smile and laugh by the Potomac river in Maryland.

It was my son Jerrel Jr. First baseball game. 

Every night we read a couple of books to Isaac before bed.  I love this time of day we get to snuggle him! 

What you see is my wife flying a kite. This photo has enormous value for me because it resembles the true spirit of my loved ones, colorful and bright soul. I took this photo at the mountain nearby Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, at very high altitude. Both of us enjoyed the photos but were thrilled about this particular one.

With my love in Saint idesbald in belgium. 

This picture is very special to me because it was taken right before my nephew Thomas was sent out to Iraq for the second time. It was taken last Fall for he and his wife's engagement pictures.

Just wanted to make sure she makes it home alright.

Connections between people is the reason I love to take pictures! I love the connection of this couple, and the shadow and light sets the mood.

My son got a puppy for valentines day.. he cried as he opened the huge box that the puppy jumped out of.

This picture was taken on the beaches of Florida, with REAL FILM, not a digital camera!  It was a spontaneous shot caught by my mom, Juanita Zachary!  You can tell by the way he is looking at me how adoring he is of of me and I am in the most complete state of joy!  This is the phase in our lives we were in as well, I was just about to move to Nashville to be with him, and we were both in this constant state of splendor, we were walking on air!  To have that captured on film is so amazing to us!!!!

my children, the joy of my life

These are my two youngest grandsons ages 14 & 16 months old. They were having fun playing my piano a couple of weeks ago. I especially like the way the diaper is showing.

Emalee Powers, age 2, was totally unimpressed by a Columbus, Ohio snowstorm.  Maybe that's why she enjoys living in Florida now as an 11 year old.

My daughter Kyra (pictured) was the "idea person" and editor of this shot. Kodak.com has featured my photos of her since she was a little girl, but now she's a senior and the creative spark behind many of our shots.

My granddaughter, 3 years old, in my driveway, just taught her hopscotch

I took this picture March 2008 before Easter after the egg hunt. I just liked the spiraling composition.

This is my sweet princess. Taken March 2016. My daughter and I were painting princess pictures and I had to take a picture of her beautiful face.

I found this picture of my parents in a box of old photos. It so perfectly captures their relationship then, as newlyweds, and throughout their fifty plus year marriage - love, laughter and joy in being with each other. I can only assume another family member took the shot, perhaps one of my Dad's brothers, shortly after my father's discharge from the army in 1946, at Brighton Beach in Brooklyn, NY.

My nephew & his wife were married in May 2007, in Maui. During a formal photo session on the beach, the rain came down and so did the pre-planned poses... This captures the spontaneous fun-side of being in love! This is what family is about to me, making more cherished memories.

I love the expressions, especially of the baby. I took this in my garage-on the floor with blankets and a black backdrop, so the lighting is all natural. It was taken in July 2007.

Taken at our local skate park. These little guys were watching the older kids skate and looking a little scared.
