About two months ago, this shoot had me come undone. I had a serious case of what I can only imagine must be what singers or actors call stage fright. It's never happened before, and not since. But for almost three hours of this beautiful woman working her yoga moves, I couldn't think. I couldn't focus. I couldn't get out of my own way. When I returned home from the shoot, I was resigned to find a job where I could put my brain in neutral and type. Thankfully I was talked out of putting my camera's on gumtree (I seriously considered it), and have found again my photomojo ... or rather, my photomojo found me, healing me where I need it most, getting me out of bed every day. I'm of the belief that we're all gifted in a unique way to bless others. I know I'm blessed and enriched by those who make music. (okay and I'm a little jealous too). I take pictures. Sometimes I take good ones, and sometimes I don't. Always new, always a challenge, it keeps me honest and teaches me humility ... nothing quite like the feeling of being reduced to tears, by the responsibility to deliver the best possible images, of a beautiful soul doing soul work, and realizing that this that I do, is soul work too, and I will never not take photographs.
