Love Affair Recap, Part Two

So, our first full day of the workshop, we began by breaking up into small groups and Millie, Lauren, Kelly and Davina rotated around our groups, talking about ways that they try to achieve work/life balance and what in their lives made them realize a need for balance and change. It’s so easy to let...

kristen hansen - I don’t know why it is that everytime I get onto your blog I am overcome with emotion. It’s probably because you are a little girl with a great big purpose. I think 80% of that purpose is to touch the lives of many through your beautiful photography. (And 20% being a mommy and wife, but maybe I have my percentages mixed up!) You are by far my MOST favorite photographer. If I do anything in this world it will be to take pictures even half as good as you do.

Thank you for being so darn cool and great at everything you touch! You are my inspiration! (For reals, man, you rock!)

Love Affair Recap, Part One

Instead of taking the red-eye that the other girls from California took, I left earlier and spent the first night in a hotel near the airport. That was a great decision, because not only was I awake and aware for the first day at the workshop, I had several uninterrupted hours to spend on getting...

I’m back!

Oh my goodness. I had the BEST time. I feel like I have changed as a person, as a photographer, as a woman. I have so many plans… so much to work on in the coming month! I was in the process of redesigning things already, but I feel much more focused and confident about...

Mindy - I’m excited to hear more details. I’m sure it was amazing!
I checked out Lauren’s blog. Fun pictures! I hope you do post some of your own, though. I always look forward to the photos you post.

Feeling like a teenage girl on the night before the first day of Junior High.

That’s the closest thing I can say to how I’m feeling right now. In the morning, I’m headed to the Love Affair Workshop! After a couple months wishing and hoping then celebrating and being excited and planning and trying to get my act together and hoping I don’t get sick or die before came around,...

Happy Valentines Day!

This afternoon, sad that some fun pics were going to waste, I decided to wish the world a happy valentines day! So, world… Happy Valentines Day! The...

Andrea - I like the idea of homemade valentines. It beats the one B-man got yesterday of Orlando Bloom with a sexy, faraway, piratey(?) look in his eyes. A little wierd for a two-year old if you ask me…

February 15, 2008 - 1:04 pm

kristen hansen - Mind if I copy that (amazing, fantastic, adorable) idea… uh, next year?

Photo Valentine’s! What WILL she think of next?

(you are too good.)

Brenda Miles - Your cub scout meeting totally beats my candlelit dinner with the kids and a sick husband. Happy heart day!
