.::still blinking::.

I have been working on a photo shoot for Hobbs Fountains. They want pictures of kids splashing in the water with the features of the Herriman Water Park as obvious parts of the photos.

This is so hard for me. I have never really taken photos of people and stuff, unless that stuff includes little bums or superman capes. And being that I am a perfectionist about things, I have to keep going back and trying for more photos. You cannot tell by the state of my house that I am such a perfectionist, but I am I am the type of perfectionist that will not even attempt it if it is not going to be perfect, thus the state of destruction in my home and the repeated repeated repeated photoshoots. I think I am getting close though, maybe even finished.

I can tell Gentry is finished. He was probably finished after the first try. He will not even put on a happy face for the photos any more. I had to bribe him today so that he would stay near me and not run off into the street and try to hitch hike to Disneyland.

I love the challenge of this though. Also, I have had to talk to complete strangers and ask if it is ok to take pictures with their kids in the background. It makes me feel like a real photographer. Which lets face it, who wouldn’t want to make a living taking pictures and making new friends.

The end.

And.

Amen.
