26 Feb 3 More Days | Austin Boudoir Photography

WPPI 2015 (Wedding and Portrait Photographers International) is right around the corner; just 3 more days away for me!

As I was driving to pick up my son from “Mother’s Day Out” this afternoon it hit me!  Hard.  I have not been away from him for longer than 3 days since he was born.  So now, as I plan to be away for 6 days, I am feeling scared, nervous and a bit crippled in fear.  I know 100% that he will be in great hands.  That was never a question.  I think I will just feel withdrawals.  Ha!  I will definitely Skype with him and my incredible hubby and sister as often as possible, and send/receive pictures, I’m sure…  It’s just hard.

But!  On the flip side —- I am so thrilled to be able to go this year.  I worked so hard and, yes, maybe splurged a little to be able to go.  But I also recognize that I really need to reward the hard work and dedication I have put forth in this huge endeavor of becoming a professional boudoir photographer.

Just a few MAJOR things I am looking so forward to:

• Being shot by Jana Roller Boudoir and The Boudoir Belle in a three-way shoot out!   YAY!
• Attending Denise Birdsong’s “Stripped Down 2015” workshop!
• Going to The Last Forty Percent‘s Platform Class
• Being a part of Jen Rozenbaum‘s Photo Walk
• Riding the High Roller with my friends all dressed up and sexy!
• Fancy dinners & parties with some incredible boudoir photographers that I love and admire

So, yes!  I have a big, scary, exciting week ahead of me…and it will be AMAZING!  🙂
