What I have been up to

Welcome to Chaos !!

What I have been up to

So yesterday I reluctantly got out of bed at 8 45 AM (way too early for me) to start getting ready for my photo shoot. It looked kind of cloudy outside, so I called the photographer (his name is Mike) and told him in my best shitty morning mood voice that it did not look promising - weather wise outside. Kind of hoping he would agree to that and reschedule so I could crawl back under the covers. But nooooooo, he sounded chipper and nice and told me he had already started driving here from Anchorage. I am not the nicest person in the morning, I can admit to that.
It takes me about 30 minutes to wake up and feel normal, this is if I have to wake up at ungodly hours like 8 45 AM. When I get to wake up at my normal time, around noon,
I am rested and nice, unless I am hungry, then I am cranky - until I get some food in me. I had stayed up until 3 AM the night before, painting my nails and showering, besides I do not go to bed before 2 AM, even if I don't work.
Anyways, I met up with Mike, drove out to Captain Cook State Park, shot in two different locations.
He sent me a file with 700 pics from the shoot to review and I am happy with many of them. So I think it went well. OF COURSE I will show all of you the results. You know me, I just loooooooveeeeeee, I can't stress this enough - loooooooveeeeeee pics of myself and showing them to all kinds of people. LOL. Yes, I do! It's so much FUN!!! Nothing wrong with being narcissistic, at least I am totally aware of this condition myself, instead of pretending otherwise.......
By 4 PM the sun was behind some thick clouds and I was shivering on a beach in Alaska, so I told Mike that unfortunately we would have to end the shoot. Next time I need to bring an assistant that can keep me warm in between posing and light adjustments with a large towel and hot chocolate and tell me if my hair looks crazy or if my outfit needs some adjustment.
From personal experience, most photographers overlook details like that and then when I see the pics I sometimes cringe because that can make or brake the picture.
I even had Chhaya with me in some of the shots, super cute! Anyways, enough yapping about the photo shoot.
Today I started out my day by laying outside in the sun. After that I met up with Lexi for some lunch and girl talk. We mostly talked about work and what's been going on there lately. We are both dissatisfied with certain things. But you already know what makes me annoyed at work, so I am not going to bring that up right now. Later on I got busy with cleaning, organizing and laundry. And now I am laying in bed........blogging and watching tv. Life is good!
