Emily and Matt are pretty seriously awesome. You don’t need to know much more than that they picked the Natural History Museum for their engagement photos. I’ve become something of a specialist in shooting in the DC museums (thank you DC museums!!) but this was my first go the Natural History. It was rad, I tell you, rad.

So, at some point after I took a workshop with Spencer Lum in July, I was supposed to write some diatribe about how it changed me, etc. etc. But the truth is, it’s hard to be changed. I think we tend to walk away from life experiences like that one inspired, challenged and pumped and as time goes by, you settle back into who you always were. Maybe you get to grow just a teeny, tiny bit. Maybe not. I came away from the workshop absolutely jazzed to do personal projects. Total number of personal projects even started since then: 0. It is what it is.

Okay one more post in 2012.
