Cool, it's starting to actually feel like spring - finally!

So update, we recently switched apartments in our building. It splits at the front door. It has one side for our living area and the other side is a studio. It was built in 1909 and has hardwood floors throughout. Before we moved furniture in, we were totally thinking "roller derby" but...yeah. We really love this building...it has so much character.

The original plan was to open a small photography studio downtown but the way things are going, it just didn't make any financial sense. Besides, this winter has been a bit of a struggle financially as most of the paid work I've been doing is family portrait work. I know...it's not cool or hip - but it's paying bills.

I did happen to shoot my first jewelry catalog for a local jeweler:

That was pretty cool but stressful.

So since I've been doing mostly family portrait work, I have to tone down my regular site and making it more "G-rated." Man, you know you live in a conservative town when people call tasteful nudes "filth." Oh well.

It's wedding season and as much as I bitch about it - it does pay some pretty good money. First wedding of the season tomorrow. What will I forget to bring? Yay...stress.

Ha...I'm in a dorky mood. And I have to finish putting this frosted window dressing on the windows so people can't peer into our place like they do.
