"When we nourish ourselves with good people, projects, surroundings, scenery, love, magic, beauty, and self-care, we radiate light into the world and continually sharpen our vision, perception, and clarity all at once. This in turn spreads to even more. Remember that one tiny drop can raise an ocean. Keep wanting. Desiring. Doing. Breathing in the sweet things." ~Victoria Erickson, Edge of Wonder
Do you ever have moments in your life that come at the exact time that you need them? This past weekend I had the opportunity to attend a workshop that my friend, Jillian Schernikau of Jillian Schernikau Photography, hosted....Crazy Making DOS! If you have ever met Jillian, you know that she has a heart for people, a heart for teaching, a heart for creating, and a heart for sharing her light, amongst many, many other things. Those of us that were there got a huge ole heaping pile of all of it. Nine of us sat in a huge circle, on Jill's floor, in her house in Beaver Crossing. We talked life, stories were shared, tears were shed, laughs were had, wine was poured, food was eaten, and it was just one of those times in your life when your soul gets filled. There is something so personal and intimate about sitting face to face with one another and sharing and connecting like that. The next time Jillian hosts another workshop, I would highly recommend going! It doesn't matter if you've been taking photos for years or picking up a camera for the first time!
Thank you, Jillian, for sharing all of you and your Crazy Making!
Here are a few behind the scenes photos....
Here are few images from our first model of the day. She made things pretty easy for us. So much so, that we had to ask her to play dumb a bit so that we could learn how to work for it. I mean seriously...she's a knockout!
Our second model session was this beautiful mama expecting her second, along with her husband and sweet little girl! Can you all believe that she is 35 weeks here!? She was absolutely stunning and the epitome of a glowing mama.
