Seattle Photographer Daniel Sheehan

Ema turns 12
Ema had no problem blowing out all of the candles on her birthday cake on her 12th birthday on thursday evening. Her Aunt Zuzanna was in town visiting from London as was our friend Fulvio; Eleni and sister Claire were there to offer assistance as was her mom in background.
It was a wonderful evening in the life of our family.

I had a request for this portrait of Sue Hegyvary I made for Nursing magazine a couple of years ago. It will be used for the author’s photo on a book by Sue. She is on faculty of the University of Washington and I made some portraits of her both at work and at home. This was one of the final selects from the home session.

I had the pleasure to be called in to Salmon Bay Elementary School in Ballard again this year to make a panorama group portrait of the cast of their annual Shakespeare play. Last year was my first such assignment. It is was again a challenge of working with the kids and then such a pleasure when the prints were delivered. I donate one to the school and charge a nominal fee for the students to get a 12 x 36″ print. Delivered 35 prints today.

My daughter Claire had such a good day on Wednesday that she wanted to try again this afternoon. This time she made 8 new drawings and again before 7PM she has sold out and made a little more than $8.00.
What a great artist and her sales skills are fantastic. I might just soon have to put her on the payroll.

Claire was at it again. She really wants a really really cute white mouse for a pet. But she has no money. She decided she needed to go to work. First she sat down and made some drawings and then a sign. Then she went out in front of the house and set up her tables and stood there in the cold light of evening and over the course of an hour made 4 sales.

She was very happy. She sold out her first portfolio of original drawings. Amount earned $4.00

Now that she has the price for a new white mouse which she wants to call Sophie, she needs to earn enough to cover a cage and food and other stuff that you need to keep a pet mouse.
