    I can't say it enough

    I HATE having my picture taken. You would think that being a photographer, I would be comfortable in front of the camera. Sadly, this is not the case. I get in front of the camera and freeze like a statue. There are few people I know that hate having their picture taken more than me (and my dad is one of them, so I guess I get it honestly).

    When Nick Haskins of Haskins Photography and LUMU creator posted a picture of me on his blog, I was shocked! I had NO IDEA he was taking my photograph. Go figure. Now I guess I know how you guys feel when you tell me after your wedding, "I didn't even know you were taking a picture of me then." I was so caught up in the moment of LUMU that I didn't notice Nick was happily snapping away.

    Here's the great shot Nick took of me. I was being a "human light stand" and holding another photog's flash.


    Nick is an awesome photographer and a great guy! Be sure to check out his stuff on his website and his blog! Thanks Nick for the awesome photo and for a great time at LUMU!

    Yeah, I feel you :) I hate having MY picture taken, too. That's why I chose to be on the other side of the camera! Thanks for stopping by my blog. I got my 5D in the mail yesterday, and I can't wait to give it a thorough test drive this weekend!
