I’m not lying. Even my own. And anytime I see that I’m scheduled to do a session with a newborn baby + a toddler, by blood starts to run cold. I’m a chicken. That’s fine. I can admit that.<\/p>\n

Buuuuuuuuut, then there’s this:<\/p>\n

\"static_uri=%2Fdarkroom%2Fmt%2Fmt%2Dstatic%2F&data=%2Fdarkroom%2Fblog%2Fblogshow%2F4d2e1c9a3bb53%2Fimage%2Etable%2Edat&slideshow=1&ssr=1&autofit=0&show_width=870&show_height=580&background_color=%23f6f6f6&thumbnail_border_thickness=2&thumbnail_border_color=%23555354&thumbnail_highlight_color=%23dc257b&thumbnail_alignment=bottom&thumbnail_width=75&thumbnail_height=75\"<\/p>\n
And then I start to feel silly that I was worried about it at all. And then I wonder if all of the toddlers in the world are communicating behind the scenes to gang up on me and perhaps this was just a ploy to get me to let my guard down so they can plan their real attack. And then I just think, “Nah. Look at her face. There’s no way.”<\/p>\n

Tomorrow starts day one of the first run of our professional photographer workshops<\/a>, so please understand if it takes longer than usual for me to respond to phone calls and e-mails. I’m so excited. The house is ready. The dish strainer is scrubbed. My computer is fired up (and *running*). I’m pumped. So excited to meet everyone and talk shop for a few days…just us girls!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
