I'm so excited. I yesterday I facebooked a woman who works as a Key West vacation planner. And she likes the idea and let me know how much is was to have my advertising where their place is, (and a lot of tourists pass through). It may not be much, but it's the beginning. I was just tickled to have my first positive experience with...

Today and yesterday I've been doing another seminar. This one is about how a (well known) started her business. The crazy part of it all, she's only been in business for about 6 years, and she's (as I mentioned) now a well known wedding photographer! (Not the one i'd hire... but then again, the one I'd hire, I'd have to have come in from Australia)....

I hope you can create the world to be as you want it to be. There is something cosmically peaceful about that ... and if/when I am ever in the Caribbean, you can be My Caribbean photographer.
Candid photography is growing tremendously these days - you've got a market for yourself, so exploit!

Well, I'm not really looking to do "candid' work... but we'll see hope it goes.
My last few days have been... interesting.
Of course, right now, the only part of it that really matters is last night. (The night before honey and I got into a huge "so where are you sleeping tonight so I can pick somewhere else" kind of fight. But that doesn't matter after yesterday...) I went to a photography seminar... and not just ANY photography seminar,...

ZOMG - I am so glad you are ok, too. Those little coincidences are BRACING.
HOORAY for meeting your mentor(s). It sounds like you all made a fantastic personal connection. That can make all the difference in creative work. May you develop purposeful and productive relationships with them. You have the talent - now you are getting the connections!

So nervous. I have a shoot for a magazine today. It's FREEZING out, (like 40 degrees) and we're supposed to be shooting for a July issue's feature and cover. I'm going crazy trying to figure out where everything is... i can't find my flash or my reflector... I need to leave in about 45-60 minutes and I totally don't know know if I'm ready...

First off, barium, it is a sailboat. She doesn't have her mast up yet. But she does have one, (and the rigging), and it's part of our to-do list to get the mast up after we sand and paint the deck. I also don't have many pictures yet, but will be posting a TON when we get down there!

~ I'm so nosey...
I'll be in Philly during the day on Sat/Sun 16 & 17 April, starting a Broad St, wanna go get a coffee?

I've finally made the announcement... I've started letting everyone know we're moving. We have about 6-7 weeks, and haven't really even started getting ready for it. Plus, I have a ton of non-moving stuff to do before we move too.

I've never been happy to sell a boat. Each time it's like ripping out my heart and tearing it to pieces...
ribbonsundone:
HOORAY!!!!
Yeah... I totally have immediate gratification issues.
well, I found the boat less then a week ago, (a week ago tomorrow), and already I'm anxious about it. I'm pretty much ready to grab the money owed and run!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We have other things that could be sold. We haven't packed. We haven't gotten (or filed) our tax return.
...And at this point, I don't really care....

Trying to relax today.
There's a lot that needs to get done in the next couple months. I'm also trying to figure out where to even start with getting ready to get back on a boat... Of course, we don't even have the deposit for the boat yet... But, if we're going to make the move, we need to act like it's definite thing. Besides,...

I love being on the water even when it's not calm. We were aboard for Hurricane Charlie in (I believe) 2004 or 2005...

Hooray for getting closer to doing what you love! I hope that it happens really quickly AND turns out to be a great investment.
Your picture is soooo pretty, btw. Is it a recent one? Your hair grew quickly!

There's so much going on in life right now! And, though not all of it is good, there is a huge chunk of it that IS good. Well, I'm still working on processing images from the Expo last weekend... and have a lot more to do, (been a BUSY week). In addition to that, I'm going to another event (with another fashion show) tonight. I'm...
