Cabin Fever

Last blog post was….ummm………….I don’t even remember.

All I know is that the end of my season was a rush, the holidays a big blur, the flu kicked my a**, it’s officially 2013, and now a bout of stomach virus has both of my littles feeling whiny, tired, and bored. I am pretty sure I will lose my mind if we don’t see a break in this soon.  What about you?

Some photog friends of mine have decided to take on a project 52. It’s loosely based, with no pressure to be perfect to get it done every week but we are challenging ourselves with some themes and technical stuff.  This week is self- portrait. This proved harder than I thought.  After a while I just made my mind up that we all need a cocoon to make it through the winter.

Here’s mine.

Oh, and you may have noticed the old bloggity blog got a makeover. Yep, I squeezed that in during the very few days where we seemed to be virus free. Scroll around (I still have a few loose ends) and let me know what you think.

Day off: After

As I was thinking about a post to write and was going to write about why I dissappeared again but then I realized the last post I wrote was called Day Off.  That pretty much sums it up. This is my next day off.

This is the first day where I feel like I can breathe. Today I have the option that I can do whatever I want. I still have many TO DO’s to get done but I don’t feel like I am swimming against a current anymore. It’s more like a stream.

I just officially finished my Fall family photography season. I am feeling pretty optimistic, I got it done. And I feel good about what I did which is even better.  I still have a few shoots here and there but I am not taking any new clients from now until the Spring season starts. Let me know if you are interested. I can put you on a list.

Today I am feeling happy. I am feeling accomplished. I am feeling balanced.

The rest of this season is all about family time, focusing on some things at home, personal projects, scheduled classes and workshops, updating this blog and giving it a makeover….all to gear up for a great Spring season. So if you need me that’s where I will be.

In the meantime, let’s pretend the blog is back 2 months ago and try to catch up. So many great experiences, kids being kids, sister visits, hubby, house and home projects, snow and storms. Oh, and all of my genuinely amazing kids and clients from this Fall.

Here are a few of my favorites.

Day Off

I took the day off today. I haven’t had a day off in …… I actually don’t know when.  It was nice.

It was one of those -exactly- what- I- needed–perfect days off.

Met a talented Blue Lily colleague/friend for coffee–You can check her out here.  We went to one of the most gorgeous locations in NYC, chatted non-stop about photography, took pictures of randomness and a bit of each other, and then topped it off with Polo Asada. Does it really ever get better than that?

A perfect morning.

I am so drawn to shooting people that I couldn’t resist and made Summer get in some shots, luckily she is a natural.

The amount of cameras that were out and about at this site today was crazy. From tourists to pros, iphones to DSLR’s, to film students and even a few iPads. It was insane and awesome all in one.  It gives me an idea for a project. I have been wanting one of those, maybe when the Fall season comes to a close.

Polo Asada + Mexican coke. No other words needed.
