I HAD THE CAMERA TURNED ON ME...

Every now and then the worst happens... and yesterday was one of those days. I had to have my photo taken. AGGGHHHH!!!! For some people, this is no big deal. They get ready, the smile, they look awesome, and they go about their day. For me... it's a completely different story. I have to get my mind wrapped around the idea. I have to mentally prepare myself for the situation at hand. There's a bit of "psyching myself out" that must take place... (think me in a hooded robe and Rocky theme music blaring) But then... when the actual shoot begins, the worst of worst happens... I start to sweat and laugh uncontrollably out of nervousness. And, it's not the pretty, flirty laughter... it's the panic-stricken, I look like I am convulsing laughter. Not ideal for photos. Luckily, I had Erik Moore shooting me and Jen Hoover doing my hair and makeup... and acting as a sort of jester to take my mind off of how uncomfortable I was. Between the three of us, we were able to get several shots where I didn't look completely uncomfortable. (Thank goodness!) Here are a few of my favorites from the day. I hope you like.

Thank you again to Erik Moore and Jen Hoover (www.jenihoover.com) for your help in this shoot. You both rock my world!!!











I am so thankful to be able to work with Jen Hoover on a regular basis. She is so super talented... and SO much fun. Seriously, this is how much fun we have every time we work together. Love her!
