Hello. Welcome to my new creative outlet for photography and writing. I'm still working on getting things in order, but keep checking back for progress updates and to find out what's happening on my block.  For new visitors, I'm Zach, a photographer and designer living in Oklahoma City. I'm a former print journalist who made the move to public relations a few years back. My favorite food is raw fish (a close tie with pho), my color palette for clothes tends to be brown and blue, I often wear Birkenstocks with dress pants; the only station I have programmed on my car radio is NPR and, thanks to my parents, my initials spell zen.

We celebrated Morgan and Shoko's wedding in Stillwater this weekend. It was truly an event that will be remembered and was in line with Morgan's passion for not only life, but also friends, family and love. I'll be adding more photos soon, however I wanted to share this video of the music played by Morgan's friends, including some of the members of Other Lives, as he rowed his bride across a lake to meet their guest. If it sounds familiar, it is Wake Up by The Arcade Fire and featured on the trailer for Where the Wild Things are. And yes, everyone that attended the ceremony wore white.

Some people say toe-may-toe some people say toe-ma-toe. As for my aunt, some people say blog when she, once or thrice unknowingly, said "blob." Here is my growing blob roll of friends and family:

Kathy: aka mixedhandbag.com aka my wife

My favorite post thus far: When Kathy decided to play Michelle Coyne one of her husband's songs while shopping in Target.
A close second: About the Author.

Dr. Clark: aka clarkcoffee.blogspot.com

My favorite post thus far: His post on his first cup of coffee reminds me of a lot of things. Among them are my grandfathers, the smells of camping and my love for strong and stale office coffee from a gritty and stained mug.

A close second: His "unusual thoughts" on dealing with red tape, managing and leadership. Spot on.

The Ogdens: aka maceogden.blogspot.com

Favorite post thus far: "slip-n-slide." The pictures sum up the Ogden family.

A close second: "it's been forever...here's what's happened." I witnessed, first hand, a child filling up his Easter basket with vomit. The smell still haunts me and I don't think I will ever be able to stomach another Cadbury Egg.

The Wallas: aka wallawallas.blogspot.com

Favorite post thus far: Walla recalling the scooter ride we took down Route 66.

A close second: Jena as Kate Gosselin. They just started blogging a few days ago so I had to choose 2 out of three post...and I made one of them up.

The Walkers: aka wockawockawalker.blogspot.com

Favorite post thus far: The next YouTube hit, "Yo MTV Raps."

Becky: aka artwanker.blogspot.com

Favorite post thus far: "Stillwater." One of my favorite pictures she has taken.

Amanda: aka lightlyfiltered.blogspot.com

Favorite post thus far: Even though it is 50 percent mommy blog and she lives in Florida, I enjoy these pictures chronicling her budding artist.

Fawn: aka glasscandle.blogspot.com

Favorite post thus far: "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen." Fawn writes about a stripper in Lawton.

The Powers: aka thepowersthatbeokc.blogspot.com

Favorite post thus far: The Powers love NYC. On one of their recent trips they paid tribute to Central Park's park benches.

Towe: aka milesofsmiles-jennifer.blogspot.com

Favorite post thus far: "Mile Marker 4." It is nice to see the progression of two friends relationship, especially in pictures.

Anna Leigh: aka usuallyclueless.blogspot.com

Favorite post thus far: "My New BFF." There is something about reading other people's preference in toilet paper that makes you feel a simple connection.

Kathryn:

This is a pretty fancy post on your new fancy blog. I am feeling unworthy of top billing rights. Glad I posted something worthwhile on the ol' blob today.
