Somebody please tell me that, not only is it okay if I skip my lifting workout today, but I *should* skip it, because I'm all achy with menstrual badness and sleep deprivation. Srsly. It'd make me feel better. :p

And hey, I went running on my lunch break yesterday, so I deserve *some* workout-y kudos for the week. It was roasty-toasty hot outside, and I totally wanted to stop, but I pushed through the whole 3-mile loop. Hopefully, I'll keep up with doing that at least once or twice a week, but I have a spotty history with running, so who knows. ;)

I've been adding and reorganizing our portfolios bit by bit, as of late, and it's getting a lot harder. I *was* just adding shots that I loved, but now I'm realizing that we really need to pare down our portfolios. On one hand, that's actually happy-making, because it means we have a lot of awesome shots to choose from! But on the other hand, it's terribly daunting, because it's so, so hard to cut out shots you love.

Portfolio building and refinement is such a beast for any creative professional. I always hate updating my design portfolio, too. It's so hard to pick and choose the best work, when you're emotionally invested in all of it.

And in closing, here are more shots of the girl with photoshopped-in eyebrows!






Yeah, I don't even know how I'm going to choose portfolio-worthy shots from this, seeing as there are others I liked that I haven't even gotten to yet. Beh!

Hi Sarah. On the drive home today, I was thinking about this, and I feel the need to tell you: Not only is it okay if you skip your lifting workout today, but you *should* skip it, because you're all achy with menstrual badness and sleep deprivation.

I think you should skip your lifting workout today!

Stay home and let your body recuperate!

Think of it as preventing injury.
A tired, achy athlete is an accident waiting to happen.

Menstrual BAH!

Eat chocolate and take a nap like I did! And I don't even like chocolate!



Choosing portfolio shots is my least favorite exercise in photography. Though as a side note, I LOVE that location(?) and your lighting.

I love the shoes your model is wearing! (both the heels and the boots) ><

And I hope you feel better...skip your workout and relax!

Actually I've found that working out helps with cramps.

The location actually just couple blocks away from our studio. The only drawback is that trains regularly go by it very loudly, so it's a bitch to direct a shoot. And the conductors will sometimes stare at your models. XD
