SAINTS DESTINY

It was Destiny that the New Orleans Saints would win the Super Bowl. This win was earned by the superstar performance of quarterback Drew Brees, coach Sean Patyon, his offensive line, the special teams and the Saints' rock solid defense. But it was also won by the incredible spirit of its fans cheering for a city so utterly devastated by Hurricane Katrina. The sheer magnitude of hope and inspiration was too powerful for any team to defeat - and we were all treated to an awe-inspiring football game of epic proportions.


"We just believed in ourselves. We knew we had an entire city and maybe an entire country behind us. Just feeling like it was all meant to be. It's all destiny." - Drew Brees

Long Live the City of New Orleans - Long Live the New Orleans Saints!!!

Studio Magic

I had the best time in the studio last week with Roan, Tyler and Sofia. We had the jams cranked up and were dancing the whole time. I put together this series of images that captures them each in their own unique and beautiful spirit.

Heavenly December Key West Sunsets

The Florida Keys are a heavenly place to hang your hat after a long work year. Our favorite place was Marker 88 in Islamorada. It was a hidden gem with these incredible views while eating dinner and having drinks during the magnificent sunset.

Happy Holidays 2009 from the Juricks!

More Beautiful Fall Images

Here are a few more beautiful images of Emily Medvin from this Fall. I think I'll get Emily and my my daughter Eden together for some photos in the Spring. Can't go wrong with those two! Meanwhile, I'd like to comment how nice these images came out - definitely some of the best of the Fall.

Image of the Day - A Dream in Black and White

Here's a cool dream-like image captured during one of my Fall shoots with one of my favorite subjects, Emily Medvin. We were in Carl Shurz Park, Emily had a bunch of colored balloons and I had a blast photographing the Emily with the balloons in different areas of the park. I added a nice little magic to this image to make it unique. Tomorrow, I'll post the colored version and a few others from that shoot.
