Recovering Slowly...
The last few weeks have been have been nuts! One more wedding this Saturday and then we have to crunch away at the 10,000 images that we took! When we say that we are charging for shoot, edit, print, and store we really mean edit! It's amazing how much time it takes and how painful it is to, as Chris Usher says, "Drown Your Puppies!" There are so many great images that never make the cut. And when it's your own work it is really hard to choose sometimes.
Our wedding last Saturday with Kaylin and Nick was an absolute blast! After the ceremony we took the wedding party up to the Charlotte Carousel and boardwalk, after the stop at McDonald's of course. Lots of terrific images there - I can't wait to see them! They are all downloaded and backed up, I just need to get to them.
Sunday morning I went to Kevin and Kimberly Wake's for a portrait session with their new daughter, Abigail. I love to shoot the babies!! She's a doll and we were going for the baby parts poster images. You know, a poster print with 9 or 16 images that have parts in them - a foot, a hand, an eye, etc. Can't wait to put that together! We also made images of Kevin's niece and nephew who we also have images of from Kevin and Kimberly's wedding last summer. It's great to see the kids growing up!
Yesterday afternoon I went and did Senior Portraits for Christopher Gartley, Alexander's brother. Christopher wants to go to school to be a sound engineer so we made images at his church where he plays the piano and works the sound board. It always amazes me to see someone just sit down at a piano and play something that I recognize! Wish I could do it.
This Saturday's wedding is with Erin and Anthony in Webster and at the Daisy Flour Mill. Should be a good time as Scott and I will both know people there and Scott did Erin's sister's wedding a few years back! I haven't been to the Flour Mill in years - all I remember is good food! Wish us good weather and look for images here soon from Kaylin and Nick and Erin and Anthony and Christopher and Mary and......
