So many things, so little time..

…is how I feel about every day! lol I have so many wonderful and fun things that go through my head, but there is only enough time in a day!

And in my happy skips of daily life..I met a wonderful new friend (you know who you are C), and in working with her, she said to me “Wow, now I see why you love this so much! I want your job!!!”  And that’s when it occured to me… I love what I do so much (photography and props) that I don’t even consider it a job. It’s a funny word to me, JOB…. something that is usually related to stress, complaints, long days and lots of coffee… hating Mondays, lol.  None of which ever cross my mind… and this, this wonderful thing that I do… it IS my job!

So how lucky am am I? Very blessed… to say the least.  I get to work with everyone from chubby little cherub’like babies… to new mothers… toothless toddlers… and even venturing into the world of boudoir photography!

Boudoir… oh my new love!  Giving other women the chance to see them through the eyes of another… showing them how beautiful they really are and giving them “power” in a world that is easy and quick to bring us down.  Breaking the boundaries of what “beauty” is portrayed, and showing women of all sizes, all colors, all shapes and categories… and exposing their beauty from all angels and aspects!

Speaking of my boudoir photography… my luck never runs out! I met a partner, mother, friend… who not only shares my love of newborn photography, but also boudoir photography!  I started up my 4th company this year… Pink Heels Boudoir LLP, with Jamie Kristine… amazing!  Not many people get to work with someone who shares their same love for photography, and life…and motherhood…and being a wife… all wrapped up into one great friend on top of it all!!!  And not only 1 great partner.. but I have 2!  Gina Neary, who is my Prop Insanity partner… sharing my obsession with photography props of all sorts.  I lucked out with her too….   it just seems I am blessed all around, over and over again… kinda scary actually!

Oh yeah… 4 companies.. I have a lil problem called WORKAHOLIC, mixed with a li OCD 🙂  But I can’t resist.. I have to share my bags with the photography world… I want to share my photography talents with other mothers and women who all deserve to have beautiful portraits of their children… And where would I be without sharing my photography prop obsession with my Prop Insanity readers… and of course, Pink Heels LLP!

And lastly… in my ranting and raving of tonight… my family.  I get to work side by side with my mother, in the Joy Bag Collection. She is my constant inspiration and my “goddess” of all things “MOM”.  She helps keep me sane… as my father doodles around like a lil “old lady“, taking care of my children while we work our tushes away.  If every mother had such great “day care” as do I, we would all be fat and happy!  Or completely insane, as some days are, lol.

So a quick THANK YOU… to everyone who makes me ME… and supports my insanity, my compulsions, my creativity, my family… and me in general.  I love my “job”….. and even though that is the label that I must add to what I do… the happiness that it all brings me, is nothing and not close to the description of what a “job” is…..
