Uh, oh! I’ve been tagged!

By admin | August 30, 2007

I love all of my crazy photographer friends, we just have an amazing community. Right now there’s a blog game going on where, if you’re tagged, you’re supposed to post 8 things about yourself that people reading your blog may not know then you tag 5 other photographer-friends. My dear friend, Dana Andreasson of Orange Cat Photography has tagged me! So, here are my 8 things :)

1. I get teary eyed at least once at almost every wedding I photograph. It’s such an emotional day and I absolutely love my clients so much that it makes me teary during some of those incredible moments (no worries, I can still focus the camera through the watery eyes :).

2. I’m on a really weird diet where I have to give myself a shot every day but I feel fantastic and I lose 5 pounds a week! (Yes, I talked to my doctor first, hah)

3. My uncle, Paul, gave me my first SLR when i was 8 years old and taught me everything he knows about photography (which is a lot!). If it weren’t for him I wouldn’t be the photographer I am today.

4. I tried a lot of other professions before finally deciding I could make the photography dream work if I tried hard enough. I was a salesman, worked in retail management, I was a Corporate Desktop Engineer for IBM, I was a photography trainer for a big company, and I had about half a dozen other crazy jobs. Photography is it for me though, I’m here to stay :)

5. I’ve never met two of my very best friends in person. I met Carey & Jana (who you’ll find tagged below) on a photography forum. We talk almost every single day, know all the intimate details of each others lives, and I love them both to death but I’ve never seen them in real life. Hopefully I’ll get to meet them soon!

6. I looove to kayak but I really can’t swim well at all. Not the best combination I’m sure but I do really enjoy it.

7. I literally haven’t done anything other than work (with the exception of a few days vacation) since early spring.

8. I love Cheesecake. Love it. And I can’t eat it on my diet. When I lose all the weight I want to lose, I think I’ll lose an extra 5 pounds so I can eat a whole one the day I’m done. :)

I’m tagging my dear friends:

Carey Schumacher

Jana Kunz

Jessica Messer

Amber Holritz

and Jason Tench

So, you guys are it ;)
