Hello. ππ»
Read it again. And again. Until you get it.
From me to me. β€οΈ
A salon visit is like a therapy session. Thank you, for breathing life into my hair again. π₯°
Flashback to 2009, I had met Miles Davis of Massive Burn Studios through another friend ( Kawai Laurencin ). We did some photos of him and his lady, Merissa. Miles & Kawai are both artists and I had the pleasure of taking photos of their work during an exhibit they put on together.
It was during this exhibit that I fell in love with Miles' work, one piece in particular. So much so that I had it tattooed on my arm. I decided after many years that I wanted it to memorialize my dad along with the title of his favorite hymnal.
Miles actually tweaked it perfectly to fit on my arm. (Swipe to see!)
So thankful to have met him and Merissa. They are such great people. π
PS. Big congrats to him for winning BEST OF COBB (County)!!!
Happy Monday. π
I have decided to go back into the corporate life. Mostly for stability. I've been through 4 interviews with the company that I will most likely be working for in the next week.
Will I still be a photographer? I don't think I can ever stop that, right? I can't even say that it was a hard decision. This will allow me to earn a consistent, well paid income with benefits and set me up for a better retirement than I've ever gotten from photography.
Does photography provide several individuals with a fabulous life / income? Yes, absolutely. However, I was too focused on community, networking and sharing / teaching to become rich from it. I don't say that lightly either.
If you want to feel any type of way for me, let it be happiness. This is a good decision for me. π₯°
What does this mean? π€
I'll still be doing some photos for regular clients on the weekends. Honestly love the relationships I've built over the years. But if something comes up that's too big for me to handle along with a full time career (and kids, etc), then I'll happily refer you to one of my colleagues. (And if you get a referral from me, trust that they are π€π» in their genre).
I also will still do associate shooting on any weekend, too. This basically means no editing. Editing is the life suck of any photo / video project (for me) lol. So the less of that, the better. π
That being said - I might need to hire an editor for a few projects that I need to finish up. If you're interested, please shoot me a DM. You need to be really great at matching tones / editing styles. π€π»
Thanks for reading. This is a lot of words and I'll probably post something else later with a big thank you to past clients but that might get a bit emotional and I need to focus on some ππ serotonin today. β€οΈβπ©Ήβ€
Photo of my happy face for whatever. π

Honestly, I've worked with a lot of models over the last 20 years and I have some that are on my short list. Meaning, I would recommend them in a heartbeat, without hesitation.
Robert is one of those models. He's always a professional but so great to work with. If you need a diverse, prompt and friendly male model, this is your guy.

By no means do I think that I'm going to be entering the world of birth photography as another career but its really nice to every now and then get to experience something new. Although I am STILL looking for a willing mom to let me film a birth.... *cough*
But when your super fresh model decides to look right at the camera... hey, thats a good night for me!!
Everyone say hello to Daniel! π₯° He entered the world smoothly today at 5:05pm.
I'm not tagging mom on purpose because I am sure she'll make her own announcements. ππ

What an amazing 6 months this has been. I was able to open a dream studio, I stumbled upon the most amazing life partner and I've met so many new friends through the photo community.
I'm extra excited as all four of my daughters are under one roof and that's rare these days with schedules. I just needed to share my happiness with you this morning.
Happy Easter, my friends. π

Story time : A couple of years ago, I was hired to film a wedding that was on the same day. (π thank you for the referral) The officiant from that wedding just proposed tonight and I was hired to film it. They recreated the scene from when Michael proposed to Holly. It was so sweet. Happy that I could help!
π And of course, I had to wear my Dwight shirt!
