I have been having a week of indecision and I blame it all on a damn set of curtains. You see, it has taken me over 5 years to finally buy curtains for our bedroom so of course I couldn't settle for anything. So after purchasing (and hanging and steaming) three different sets we are finally settled. And if I am being honest - well they are just going to have to do. I can't buy and return another set out of sheer embarrassment.
And that's just curtains. I have also returned a swimsuit, a pair of snow/rain boots for P and three different shirts. Like I said I am having an off week!
We were supposed to head out of town this weekend but decided last minute to stay home. Lots of travels coming up and my photography schedule is crazy packed. So I think I am just going to enjoy this last weekend of no plans. I also managed to convince David that I am going to take our holiday photos - with a remote and tripod. So this should be...interesting.
I see it as a challenge and I am kinda oddly excited - and hey any excuse to buy better photography gear has me saying yes. So I am on the hunt for a great tripod. If you have any recommendations let me know in the comments.
So just random this and that and some pics of my lady from last night. Happy halfway through the week!
Girl, you are so talented! P is just adorable!! I am awful at choosing curtains. I can never make up my mind and by the time I do I want to redo the entire room. Ha ha!
ReplyDeletelove these pics! you will take beautiful holiday photos! and dont worry about the curtains -- i had a similar thing happen with faux flowers (my husband called me a granny for buying fake flowers in the first place!) Dont worry, you'll snap out of it soon! xo jillian - cornflake dreams
ReplyDeleteYou go girl!! I'm so impressed you're going to take your own Christmas card photos! I bet they turn out amazing!
ReplyDeleteYour photos will be perfect!!!! I have no doubt! XO
ReplyDeleteI searched for curtains for my bedroom for almost three years before I found some that I felt I could hang. I'm still not sure I'm totally sold on them though...
ReplyDeleteI'm pumped to see how your photos turn out! I know they'll be amazing.
Can't wait to see which ones you picked! I'm sure they look great :)
ReplyDeleteAnd excited to see you holiday photos - your pictures always turn out so beautifully!! xx
I thought about attempting our photos myself and then was like...yeah right. Hired that shizz right on out. But then again, I'm not talented like you are.
ReplyDeleteI can so relate to this since I get severe buyers remorse. It's terrible. So cheers to finally settling on curtains!
ReplyDeleteOh! If this whole "shooting your own family photos" thing works out for you, you must share tips/tricks on how you managed. We had our session last night and I'm pretty sure the children ruined every single shot. Surprisingly, Mim was the WORST. I don't know what got into her, but she wasn't having it at all. UGH. I'm just praying for ONE good pic!
