just posted something new.

i just posted my most recent wedding on joelgutowsky.com. i am truly excited with the way this one turned out! this my first wedding to shoot with my d300 and my 17-55mm 2.8 lens. i am very impressed.

to be honest, sometimes i get down when editing weddings. it takes so long. so much time. i look at the same people, over and over and over again, but then when i am done and prepare my photos to post on the website, to mail, etc…i get really excited. to hear the excitement in the clients voice when they hear that their pictures have been mailed. to get the emails/tweets/facebook comments that are nothing but encouraging…that gives me fire again. that makes me want to pick up my camera and take on the world.

it seems that encouragement just does that for me (i hope it does for everybody). i have received multiple encouraging comments over the past few days and it just makes me in a better mood. it makes me feel better about the work im doing and makes me want to do this work, better.

so here we go. time to get back to work. learning some songs for tonight and then spending the afternoon studying and preparing for discipleship studies with the youth for the next couple of weeks.

here’s to encouragement.
