this morning I wanted to take a few pictures in the living room… the hyacinth is almost in full bloom and the orchid is quite lovely…

my camera wouldn’t work… tried all the things I could think of but nothing seemed to make a difference…

was very stressed because we were going to a photoshoot and I wanted to record the process with pictures…  

finally put the camera away and used my iPhone… this was my view of the new orchid… beautiful…

the photoshoot went well… I find it fun to watch the photography team work with the client…

my view of them keeping the conversation going to relax the person being photographed…

  
my teammate produced a smile even as she was feeling stress about the whole process… she really didn’t want to have her picture taken…

  
checking out how the shots came out…

when it was my turn we talked about how much easier it is to be behind the camera as opposed to in front of it… I posed as requested and didn’t bother to see how they came out… one thing I’ve learned is that the person in the picture isn’t usually able to see how great they look, so I was happy to trust the professionals…

watching Ian take the pictures you could often see when he knew he had the photo he wanted… in my own way sometimes I have that feeling…

he had a peek at my camera and figured out that one of the buttons was stuck… I couriered it over to a local repair shop and hope they can fix it… haven’t heard back yet…
