This self portrait friday is bittersweet.
But let’s start with the bitter part…This week my computer decided to die. Or rather, just stare at me with a grey screen like it didn’t know better. I had to send it away for service and I may or may not have buried my sorrows in a Dutch Freeze and a couple episodes of the Real Housewives of New Jersey.
First, let me say to all my clients out there that your photos are SAFE AND SOUND on my hard drives. However. there is currently no way for me to edit them…which is the reason behind the stress, tears and Real Housewives marathon.
I would be lying if I said that I wasn’t freaking out about this situation but at this point I’m looking ahead to the silver lining. I’m taking this time as a sort of mini-staycation, if you will. A chance to catch up on things non-editing related. Lately my life has felt like it’s ruled by the computer and the mountains of photos that I need to sort, edit, burn and repeat. Part of me almost feels like this is kismet. My time to remember why I shoot in the first place. I’ve been spending a lot of time reuniting with my film camera, dreaming big and getting inspired again. And it feels good. Real good.
