It is 4:00 in the afternoon. Yes, for once, I am writing one of these during the day. It actually feels a bit weird! I like to write these when I am sitting in a quiet place and I can really concentrate on my task at hand. For the past year, that has been after midnight, almost every single time. So, how is it that I am able to do this at 4:00 in the afternoon? Well......I'm sitting at my desk, listening to my music....at my new STUDIO!!! Right now, after a few very hectic weeks, full of sessions, weddings, moving, car accidents :( and in law visits, I am sitting by myself...peaceful.
I have been searching for a while for the right studio. My house isn't that big and my props and equipment were starting to fill rooms. Plus, having a husband that works from home and an almost 4 year old, it does make working quite difficult at times. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE being home with my family. But, for me, I am a workaholic, and trying to differentiate family time and work time became harder to do. Plus, I really dreamed of having my own place that I could meet with clients and I can set up more detailed setups for newborn and baby sessions. Once I found my studio, I knew this was my second home! I just felt comfortable! Grant it, the night I got the keys (and a few days after), I was pretty in shock. I couldn't believe that I had just made one of the top 5 biggest decisions in my life. Wow, excited and OMG scary!!! Since then, I have calmed down and my life just feels right! I'm on Main St. in Old Wethersfield - in a Barn! How cool is that? I've always loved this street, and now I am part of it. Once again, I AM IN LOVE!!!
