What a gorgeous morning it’s been at Penny Hollow. I’ve been able to catch my breath today and get caught up on all the fun stuff (CHORES!!!) and am taking a minute to get a little bloggin’ in. This won’t post until tomorrow, so hello from the past.
The coolest thing that’s been going on behind the scenes for me (still in the early stages of planning) is being able to assist with a music video. It’s something I’ve been wanting to get into for awhile now. If you knew me in high school you know that I was churning out videos/short films on the regular but stopped to dive all in to photography. I’ve always loved film and especially music videos so to have the opportunity to get into it again on a larger scale has me STOKED.
Right now I’m just helping out in anyway that I can, but I really am manifesting this to turn into something regular. I don’t have a huge interest in manning the camera, but just being involved in logistics and eventually concept creation and color story is a big goal of mine.
We had a little meeting about it Monday and my gears have been turning ever since. Even if it ends up just me helping on set day of, I’ll be over the moon.
All personal concept work has taken the back burner the last few weeks, which is okay. I’ve been getting more client work which is exciting. Just wrapped up and delivered final images for a styled shoot myself and Morgan did for The Hickory House. It’s a great little AirBnB in Jackson, going to be sharing images from that later on this week. It’s super fulfilling for me to be able to capture someone else’s vision, especially when it’s business related.
This weekend I’m cramming as many shoots in as I can before Grier and I go out of town for Thanksgiving in Louisiana. I am really looking forward to these shoots and can’t wait to share the images we get.
I haven’t done a set for Date + Time in a few weeks, but I plan on getting the next round of concepts finalized and the shoots scheduled as soon as I get back from Thanksgiving. Next week I’ll share sketches of what the next few shoots will look like!
In personal news… not this coming weekend but next, (right when we get back from Louisiana) Miranda is coming to stay with me and it’s going to do engagement photos of Grier and I. Her work is incredible, and I am BEYOND stoked to have her do these. She also has her first publication out, here’s the link where you can snag yours!!! https://www.blurb.com/b/9753800-travels-in-technicolor-hawaii
I’ve chosen primary colors for our outfits/accessories and I think I’ve also decided on that for my wedding colors as well. Of course you can expect a big ole post about those when we’re done!
It’s been cathartic to catch up and organize my thoughts here. I mentioned on the last post that I had some things in the works related to the blog and I’m hoping to have that launched and ready to go end of December.
Xoxox darklings, till next time.
