When I first opened up birthday week contest, I soon had an email from a fellow photographer, Jen Taylor, that made me smile...BIG! Without writing out her entire email, there were two things that brought on my giggling grin.
1. Seeing this picture of her adorable daughter and her personally designed, ultra cute outfit.
2. That she would love for me to come to Minnesota to photograph her daughter! This was where I beamed...beamed my big pearly whites all day. Why? When a peer in my industry asks...it just renders me speechless. I honestly didn't know what to say... But I sure had a lot to say to who ever called me that day...I couldn't stop sharing the flattering news to anyone who could hear. Here's the fun part, Jen and I met almost a year ago at a photography workshop in Seattle. She was one of the first girls I met there.
Okay...here's a little storytelling. First, the workshop I attended had I think 30 attendees. It was big. The first night was a meet and greet night for everyone. I, of course, arrived late. And arrived with blisters from the shoes I pranced through the city in.
Before I went upstairs to the meet and greet...business had to be taken care of.
1. bandaids for feet from front desk
2. go to the ladies room
As I went up the stairs, I think I might have been the very last girl to arrive. And, I arrived feeling like the new girl to an all girls school. So, I entered and made my way to the very back of the room. It was there that I met an incredibly nice group of girls and Jen was one of them.
It wasn't until an hour into the evening that I realized my undergarments were not only hanging out, but hanging out because they got stuck in the zipper of my jeans! Um yeah....I couldn't even scurry to the darkest part of the room to fix this, I just giggled outloud and quickly fixed it. To this day, I simply laugh!
Jen...I'm not sure if you even remember this. But if you do, we're giggling together.
