Here are some shots from a shoot I did towards the end of 2009.  I had the pleasure of photographing some of the firefighters at Eastside Fire and Rescue Station 71.  One of the Lieutenant's had hired me to take a portrait of him and the guys for a holiday gift.  I had never been to a fire station before so it sounded like fun to me and it was.  I was like a kid in a candy store.  There were so many pictures to take.  They let me just wander around and snap a few shots around the station after the portrait.  I was really moved by the pride they showed for their job and their house.  I can't imagine doing what they do.  I am in awe and have so much respect for them.  I was offered a ride along some time and I can't wait to take them up on it.
