This blog has usually covered the photobiz, but on a more personal note, my mother recently passed. I got a call from my oldest brother, just as we were heading out the door for our last wedding, telling me that the time was near. I made the decision to go to the wedding, because I thought what could I do, I would be helpless to do anything to change the situation.
The next days were spent clearing out her room in the nursing home, going through numerous boxes and albums of old pictures, preparing memory boards for display at the wake, and crying with my wife. It was that moment I realized how important our work is, when all I came home with were memories and a handful of photographs...
There's only so much time we're given on this planet, so find your passion, and make sure you live life to the fullest.
My son Carl best summed it up with his blog entry seen
here.
Once again we got to make some pictures of an awesome couple who really know how to light up the dance floor. These kids were so much fun to work with, and very easy to photograph... hard to go wrong with material like this. Many thanks to Foz's for opening early and putting out a wonderful spread of snacks to help soak up all those great martinis!!
