The inevitable
aaaand...i went down a rabbit hole looking up prices for mitzvah photographers in the area while waiting for pics to upload from today's shoot from my camera to my computer. and don't get me started on the number of photographers who don't even put pricing on their websites yeah. some of these people are charging … Continue reading The inevitable
I use to have a brain.
What the heck, people. Have you read about women hitting peri-menopause and suddenly their brains stop working? And then they end up with a late diagnosis of ADHD, autism, or some other form of neurodiversity? Yeah. Somethings up. My therapist agrees. I probably won't have the money for a proper neuro-psych eval anytime soon but … Continue reading I use to have a brain.
Summer coming around the corner!
Holy Spring. I only seem to write here when I'm gasping for breath at the end of another season or chapter. I had a bar mitzvah, a wedding, two schools, multiple seniors, a new baby, and somehow only one family photoshoot. Tonight it's prom pics! Looks like june will be another mitzvah and two swim … Continue reading Summer coming around the corner!
A tiny pivot

Seniors, kids, headshots, theatrical headshots...Also? I want to focus more on families and clients who aren't "normal." Which means the people that are … Continue reading A tiny pivot

It's also a chance to sit back and rethink what went right … Continue reading Happy New Year
Annual Newsletter
My fall newsletter went out last week and I'm practically giddy to finally wear jeans and to need a hoodie in the mornings. The summer birkenstock sandals have been placed aside and the fall birkenstock clogs have been unearthed. It's *almost* time to dig out my favorite cardigans, too. Enjoy! Annual Newsletter! Fall 2023
Adventures in AI
We've all heard of ChatGPT and how someday the AI will take over the world. Have you heard of Photoshops Generative AI? Holy cow. It came out in Beta this summer and I'm in love. Sure I've played around with it to put people on the beach or in space but what I've really found … Continue reading Adventures in AI
Many New Adventures Afoot…
You guys, I've applied for a muggle job. It's CRAZY. Kind of landed in my lap and started a whole soul searching and job searching push to see if this is really something I can do. Not that I don't think I could, it's more of a logistical thing as a working mom. Pre-covid if … Continue reading Many New Adventures Afoot…
April!!
Apparently I'm really good at monthly posts. Hm. No problem there. I have been thinking this month about what kind of photography I do more of. I have plenty of families, which I love, don't get me wrong there! And a fair amount of headshots which are fun in that I can work on my … Continue reading April!!
