Spring into the Spring Season

So I haven't been updating, because I've been pretty busy with school, work, and working out at the gym. I'm pretty much always in one of those three places. Usually no where else, occasionally Starbucks, out to eat, and maybe shopping. But the past week, I've had the chance to rest and think about myself and my body. Sometimes the real world tires you out and you just want to go run or take a yoga class to forget everything stressful.
The start of my break, I got to go see a studio space for my friend's photography studio that she is planning to open soon. I was so honored of the fact that she wanted my opinion, even though she knows I'm a science person and not so much of an art person. But probably within the year, I'll be helping her expand her business and maybe she'll let me take a few pictures along the way. The rest of the week was dedicate to going to the gym twice a day and resting and spending time with friends and family. I also squeezed a few doctor's appointments in there to make sure my dieting wasn't affecting my internal body. Towards the end of the week, I got to do something super exciting.
Yesterday I had the honor to take some pictures with my dad for a friend's wedding thats coming up in a couple weeks. This weekend was the casual shoot and next weekend is the formal shoot. I had to wake up at 5 a.m. and drive three hours to the location of the shoot. I had loads of fun styling, posing, and directing the shoot. I also got some pictures in as well, but maybe only a few turned out well. It was stepping outside my comfort zone of science and animals to do something creative. After four hours of shooting it was time to head back home and sleep. I was so exhausted, but I did have fun, so it was worth getting up in the morning. Thankfully next weekend is a sunset shoot, so I can wake up and do some stuff before we go.

I'll post some pictures once I'm done. I officially got my dad to hand over the EOS to the uploading dock for the pictures. I usually had to bug him to borrow the camera and wait until he uploaded them onto picasa, but now I'm in charge!
