...Ever have one of those great, creative ideas of something you want to do (photo, painting, poetry, whatever...) :boogie: you can't wait to get it on paper (or again...whatever ) but when you finally try to get it done it doesn't look anything like the way you had it pictured? :ohmygod: That's been happening to me all week and it's driving me crazy! :frustrated: Sometimes when that happens you end up with a final version better than you had imagined, but not for me...not this time :upset: Just venting, sorry... :shrug:

A friend has asked me to take pictures of her kids!!! :faint: She has three little girls under 3! One of which is a newborn! :jawdrop: I am really excited to do it and flattered that she would ask but I am also terrified! :fear: Any advice??? :please: The problem is I usually hang a sheet on the wall and take pictures of my boys amidst the chaos and it's not a biggie whether I get a good shot or not :shrug: - doing it for someone else (she's not a close friend at all) just adds so much pressure. What if the kids don't stay still? Don't smile? What if I don't get good lighting? HELP!!! :omg:

My life for the past month has been absolutley insanity!  :cries: ...Just made two trips across country with the boys (thankfully, they are both great on the plane! :nod:) ...only to come up here and pack us up to do it again!!!  :shakefist: :faint: Hopefully this will be our last move for a loooong time. :please: Anyway, needless to say, I haven't had a lot of time to be very active on here, but it's so funny how much I miss it! :lonely: Can't wait to get home again to do some shooting with the boys! :love: So yes, I'm still alive, and will be back soon... :sarcasticclap: :blowkiss: Member of ~newfoundland (https://www.deviantart.com/newfoundland) :iconthe-abandoned
