I (Caryn) thrive on being around people. The energy in people is like a Monster drink shot straight to my nervous system. I’m instantly awake, vibrant, and if I can say ~ on a good day, even funny. Why? If I spend time alone, I feel tired. I feel unproductive, sleepy. But a voice on the other end of the phone or even better, the presence of another human being caffeinates my soul and brings me to life. I love people. I love you, the person reading this silly post. I feel your heart beating, smell your energy, hear your inner laugh. And when I walk into a room where people are there, my synapses start firing and my adrenaline starts racing through my veins. SO… this is one of the BEST reasons I love what we do. When we book an appointment, inevitably you show up at the same place where I’ll eventually show up (hopefully, we pray, on time!) And when I do, the fun begins! I love your jokes. Your quirky comments. Your nervous energy about having to pose for pictures or smile for too long. But every time, we just laugh and hang out and capture a few awesome shots of you feeling your most awesome and amazing self.
And this leads me to our most recent high school senior portrait session. We always suggest you go with our “Senior Experience” session since it includes Cori at Moxie Hair for full photo styling and Carly was excited about the idea. And I have to say, within 2.4 seconds of entering the salon, I KNEW we’d have a blast! Her mom and I clearly were BFF’s after our few phone calls. (Seriously, let’s have coffee soon!) And then there was this ball of firey energy that blew me away. Carly is a kick. No easier way to say it. Funny? Yes. Beautiful? Um, yes. Quirky and crazy? Absolutely. What FUN we had cruising around Towne Center in El Dorado Hills. She clearly knows Tyra Banks personally or something, the way she worked the runway ~ er, sidewalk. And I laughed along with her mom the whole session at how much fun she was having. As always, THANKS for the experience!! Here’s a sneak peek at our day…..
