Stand where? Lean which way? Put my arm where?
I was so impressed by my friend Karen’s photoshoot, I decided to have one myself. Her reasoning made sense to me: “Have some professional photos done NOW so you can tell your grandkids some day, “See, Granny didn’t ALWAYS look like THIS!” We had a ton of fun in the rain, trudging through the kudzu and the standing water, fending off spiders and ants, and wild blackberry thorns, considering the possibility of attending ghosts and the perfect setting for a scene from The Walking Dead. I can’t wait to see what kind of magic this talented photographer can work on me! Ladies, have a professional photo shoot done while you still slightly resemble that girl you barely remember from high school. It’s just plain fun playing dress up and having your pictures done!
I’ll be out of touch for a few days. My husband and I are going with my brother and sister-in-law on a fishing trip in Florida, in a sweet little town where cell phone service is spotty and wi-fi is unheard of. After that, I’m off to Distance Running Camp with the cross country team. I won’t be posting daily, but I’ll give it a try when I can get a signal. When I get home, I’ll let you in on all the fun details!
