Day 1708 – Frozen, Oklahoma And A Sabbath

Today was spent on the couch. It was glorious. I did read while watching movies. Finished a great book called Contagious. Highly recommend it for any business owner. It’s rare that I “take a day off” but it’s so necessary to a fully functioning business. I’m so glad I did. 🙂

The day was finished with a movie night with most of my family. We watched Frozen (3rd time for me!)

I realized while I watched Frozen, that the scene where they meet Olaf looks almost exactly like Oklahoma did when we drove through. I think it will forever be etched in my mind as one of the most beautiful things I’ve seen. Looking back, I wish I had pulled over to take a picture. Ah well, iPhone will have to be ok…

Day 1700 – I Love Photographers. :)

Yesterday, I had the joy of having a cup of joe and several sweet treats with two amazing photographers, Kat Forder and Robin Shotola. We sat for hours and hours just chatting about business, life and sweets! I mean, you couldn’t help it at the amazing bakery we went to! MMMMM.

If you’re a photographer, especially one who works full time from home, meeting with other photographers is SO important! When I first started, I thought other photographers were just competition and nothing else. I stayed away from networking for a long time because of that. But the more I’ve gotten to know other photographers, the more I realized there is work to go around…I mean, it’s still a super tough market, don’t get me wrong…but I feel like it has helped my career over and over again having these friendships. I’ve also seen that the most successful photographers are the ones who are the most willing to share.

Thank you Robin and Kat for a very lovely time!! 🙂

And what Jen blog post would be complete without a fun sign and a picture of my treats?
