Trying to think of ways to drum up business takes up 75% of my daylight hours. Photographing / creating about 5% and editing images 20% and then there is LIFE which gets squeezed in.
Life is good, I recently went on a whirl wind trip in 15 days to Hong Kong, Melbourne, Sydney AU, Auckland, NZ. Countless hours spent to and from airports and in the air but a once in a lifetime experience none-the-less.
Before I headed overseas, Jene and I photographed the babies (all girls) of 2 of our recent "bump" portrait sessions. The twins were 15 days old the other pipsqueak was just 9 days. I think I had more fun holding the twins before setting them into position and had to cuddle them when they started to fuss. Jene's fatherly instincts came back to him quickly remembering how soothing holding a baby close to your heart is (for them and yourself). It was a pleasure having the twins at the studio in NJ. The instant you take a diaper off a baby is when they seem to like to pee. Blankets, props and drop clothes were tossed into the ivory snow wash. Less clean-up for us shooting the other in the comfort of their home. (We shot the bare-bottom baby on their family room leather couch propped with their pillow and baby blankets. (I'm sure they were happy we didn't choose the LR's new sectional).
