Commitments kept; finishing up w/ Amelia!
<html>
<p>Hiya, Steemit! I’m comfortably sitting at my favorite corner booth at @caffetto. What a great day it’s been. @vermillionfox and I had a easy start to our day. @guthrie’s mornings have been smooth since I got back from home […much of the credit for that goes to @vermillionfox’s ability to give him a routine and schedule]. Having these stress free mornings are such a welcomed change of pace after the relentless schedule that was Viva Las Vegas, and the week earlier in Los Angeles. Sometimes I even take a nap during the afternoon.</p>

<p>Okay, so now that I’m home, I’m completely immersed in work. I love it. That’s how I know I love my job. The last three weeks have been a brutal three week marathon of traveling and shooting, so to be excited about sitting down and putting in 12 hour days is a real testament to great career choices. The first step is backing up almost 10K photos. I did that, and now I’m starting to triage what needs to be edited first. Obviously, I owe work from last fall but with some upcoming magazine deadlines, time dictates priority.</p>
<p>One client that I’ve owed since November of last year is this darling little Latina pinup, Amelia. I’ve shared some work with her previously. One of the few silver-linings that comes with owing work so long is the opportunity to see a shoot with a refreshed point a view. It’s almost like seeing the the images for the first time. That’s what this experience was like, digging back in to the files with Amelia. These are, without a doubt, my favorite images from our entire shoot together. I have a tendency to save the best for last. You can see why.</p>

<p>I get a lot of emails and messages from potential clients saying “…I’m not a model.”, or “…how much experience do you require?”. The answer is, “None!”. Amelia is a first time model and reviewing these photos, we absolutely killed it. I direct a lot when shooting, and Amelia took wonderful direction. The location was beautiful and enjoying the success of this collaboration makes me grateful for the people I meet and my approach to photography for the last twenty years.</p>

<p>I’m so glad to be back home and making the most of my own routine […I really missed my friends, family and coffee shop]. I only have two weeks before getting back on the road, but for these two weeks, I’ll be turning out a lot of work. Look for new work from Los Angeles and Vegas, and the last of what I owe from the end of 2018. Thanks for reading, supporting and upvoting.
