I did a photo shoot with my three kids late on Monday afternoon. We had gotten them some new hats a couple of weeks ago and I picked up some cute outfits to go with. As a photographer, I don't have nearly as many pictures of my own kids as one might think. I took this opportunity (and the new ensembles) to get some current pictures of my little people.
This was the first time, in a long time, that I have picked up my camera, and boy, did it feel good!!! I didn't realize how much I missed taking pictures...the capturing the shot, the creative juices flowing...it all came rushing back to me and it got my blood pumping!!! After the shoot, I took the kids to dinner at Outback. Within an hour, four different people had asked me about my photography business and expressed interest in it...more blood pumping!! Yesterday at work, my friend Sacha sat me down and told me, as only Sacha can, that I need to get off my booty and start working on my business again. She told me I was talented and that I am wasting the God given gift I have by not doing what I want/need to do in photography! That was the kick in the tail/major blood pumping that I finally needed.
Thank you, Sacha for reminding me and not being afraid to tell me what I needed to hear!! <3
God answers prayers. Sometimes He chooses to do it quickly. I am thankful that He hears me, even when I talk to Him through this blog. My blood is pumping again. Excitement is brewing. CaptureLife Photography is comin' at cha!
Put my photographer's hat on and take pictures of YOU? Don't mind if I do...
