Photo Shoot
.

It wasn't painful, although I'm not sure the look on my face above will attest to that. The photographer, Vasiliy Baziuk, was wonderful. (I would say that even if we didn't exchange blog links!) I checked out his blog after he left - apparently the dude's a good photographer! That gives me hope these will turn out okay, referring to the subject, not the photographer.
It took way longer than I expected - close to an hour. He took dozens of photographs. He started out with photos of my hands doing stuff and then just my artwork, so I thought I was going to escape showing my face. He took a lot of shots of me cutting paper. I just kept slicing the paper into smaller and smaller bits, thinking I am so glad I have my new Cadillac of paper cutters to show off. Like anyone will notice or care, except me. :-)
Mostly I wish my Etsy shop was chock full of stuff. I just can't get to it. As I told Steve this is the week that begins our 2-3 week of being out of our normal routine.
Monday - took Reggi to the vet
Tuesday - photo shoot
Wednesday - dinner with Kathy, Nancy & Kim
Thursday - massage
Friday - Steve's sister arrives from Colorado Thursday night so not sure if anything is planned for Friday night or not. Steve's taking the day off, I know.
Saturday - breakfast with my family at The Log Cabin, dinner with Steve's family at his brother's house
Sunday - football watching (or stitching, in my case!) with Steve's family
So far, Christmas week only involves spending Christmas Eve with Steve's family and Christmas Day with my family. Steve and I both have to work on Friday.
(Helen - your cards are almost done. You'll notice I'm holding one in the above photos. Your cards will be famous!)

I'll post the article here when it comes out. I'm even more nervous about it now that all these photos were taken. I know only a very few (one!?) will be used.

I can't wait to see the article!
I'm sure you'll look fine but wow, look how tidy your studio is! I swear, we all need to have a photographer come once in awhile just to get the house picture-perfect!
It's nice seeing your face, although knowing you on line all these years, I already know what you look like!
The studio really is clean - except for that white box that's blocking the photographer's head in the second shot. I meant to move that too. I didn't notice it until I looked over his shoulder for these shots. And my desk area around my laptop? It all got shoved into a big blue plastic storage box at the very last minute. Hope I don't forget about it - that is important stuff!
That is so awesome! I would melt in front of a camera so I'm glad they chose you!
And Kathy - nice to hear from you! I've been out of touch with your blog - I'll stop over at lunch today. :-)
