Taste of my own medicine

I feel really weird posting pictures of myself, but now I know how my clients feel! My ultra talented and super cute assistant (AKA: my husband Matt) has been bugging me for months to do a photo shoot. Trust me - I made up some good excuses. I finally gave in for important reasons.

#1: I need updated headshots. The photo on my website's "about me" section was taken in 2003.

#2: Matt wanted to practice doing a portrait session. I've been teasing him since his first and last one when he told his subjects to "Do something neat."

#3: The main reason --- I wanted to know what it felt like for my clients. When I bust out my camera in front of people, it's easy for me to tell them how easy it is. Yeah right! It's kinda scary - "What if I look terrible or weird?" "How does my hair look?" Awkward - "What do I do with my hands?" "Where do I stand?" Cold - "Matt, this wind is going to blow me away!" "I have goosebumps everywhere!"

OK, so now I feel your pain. Yes, it can be very intimidating to have your picture taken. But it's also liberating and good for the soul. It's fun to see how another person sees you. In this case, it was my through husband's eye. I had an absolute blast --- and that's my goal for YOU.









Seriously, if anybody wants to hire Matt instead of me, go for it! He has an easy going approach with a keen eye for detail. I must admit, I had my doubts when he was telling me where to pose, how to sit and what to look at. But whenever I tried giving him tips, he told me to be quiet. And I'm glad he did. Matt - I would hire you any day!

Where do I begin? Gorgeous! Matt, you did a great job, but I'm not going to give you total props because your subject was flawless:) Love how your highlights are screaming in these shots and he captured the one thing the encompasses who you are....that warm, calming, contagious smile of yours. You are so beautiful in these shots because he was able to capture your soul. The beauty on the inside is definitely met by the beauty on the outside:) Beautiful teamwork! K

Hi Cin--So last night Adam and I were online and he was showing me pictures of his brand new nephew, Ashton. It hit me that he has never seen a picture of you before (except for you and Matt's engagement photo which I have framed in my room). So I opened your blog page and scrolled down to these photos. I loved his response....all he could manage (he was speechless I think) was "Oh wow!" I said, "I know, she's beautiful isn't she?"

S.S.

What entertaining phrase
In my opinion you are not right. Write to me in PM, we will communicate.
I apologise, but, in my opinion, you are not right. I am assured. I can defend the position.
