Well Hello there!
Today started out annoying and gross, feeling sick and tired and just icky (probably from vegas..if I had to guess)..and then….I shot at the most amazing location with the most awesome fun couple ever. bam. all better.
Today I photographed a couple of chefs, who just happened to bring me delicious buttermilk bacon kumquat scones….holy moly. Needless to say it was a great time, for those of you who know me- food is my second favorite thing, and photography is my first (or maybe that is backwards). Today was perfect, sometimes I get kind of gushy and mushy and right now is one of those times, I am feeling overwhelmed with happiness that I have been led into a career that I am absolutely, 100% in LOVE with. Sometimes I may complain that I am tired of retouching, I am tired of doing my own book keeping, I am tired of negotiating, and unfortunately sometimes am annoyed at the site or thought of holding a camera….but then I have days like these and remind myself why I love what I do. Spending time with awesome couples who are in love, who are funny, and who sometimes love food even more than I do…thats what makes my job awesome.
Today was one of those days. Happy Happy girl right here.
