Life is flying by at warp speeds. It seems the older I get, the faster the time flies.
I went to see a chiropractor last friday, and again yesterday. She says that I have extremely low levels of calcium in my tissues- not sure if it’s because I don’t get enough, or I don’t metabolize it […]

Today was the Arts & Communications Expo that I’ve been preparing for- and all in all it was a smashing success, both for the high school kids involved and for my businesses. My aunt (and business partner! Squee!) came with and gave me a hand and proved herself very sociable, although she would argue that […]

Today my pain levels have been manageable, thank goodness! However it’s been extremely hectic. My phone has been ringing off the hook. My inbox has been full. At least I feel good enough to manage it all though!
Lot’s going on this week, tomorrow my cousin Hannah leaves to go home to visit her mom and […]

I feel like I wasted the day. I slept way too late, thanks to my continued bout of insomnia. I think the last time I looked at the clock it was 4am.
Then I rushed to the computer, as I had promised a client we would go live with her site. I redirected DNS and waited. […]

Woe, I’ve been suffering from insomnia. For like, five or six nights in a row. It’s sucked. Big time.
It probably has something to do with the fact that I’ve been working on a lot of different projects and stewing over several different “big ideas” at once. And sleeping late. And eating late. Damn my bad […]

After taking more than a week off sick, I’m back to work today. I only wish there were three of me, but I had a pretty productive day. The Monroe wedding is DONE. Finally. Geesh, that was some serious fun- and some serious work! I know some photogs who won’t do weddings, claiming they are […]

What a week. What a month. What a life! It’s rushing by at warp speed!
The wedding this weekend went great. Beautiful church, beautiful bride = great photos. As all weddings do - there were a few slight hitches.. but I did my job(s) and learned a lot and spent the latter half of the reception […]

I’m going to finish up the bridal veil(s) (making two) in just a bit here, then go test shoot the portrait location, then head to the rehearsal and rehearsal after-party. Tomorrow is the big day- a 12 hour shoot for me. But I know I’m going to have a blast! Sunday I have to work […]

I’m SO tired.
I feel SO guilty.
I am SO sick.
I’m in SO much pain.
I am SO ready for a few days off in a row.
I am SO excited about opening a studio.
I’m SO scared it will fail in this crappy economy.
I’m SO sick of working at the computer all day, every day.
I’m SO happy it’s fall. […]

Maybe I should just be an event planner. Once again I’ve taken on much more of a role than photographer with a bride and groom. Not only will I be taking their photos- I made their video slideshow, the bride’s veil, the bridesmaid and groomsmen gifts, and will book their honeymoon for them. All stuff […]
