picture me {im}perfectly.way too many

i have this problem.

and it really is a problem. 

not one of those fake problems.

i take too many photos.

and sometimes, it's paralyzing. 

i just did a 

super, super 

fun shoot with 

one of my favorite people

and her family

(and no, i will not even reveal one sneak peek shot).

the lighting was absolutely beautiful

and her set-up and 

location ideas were just fabulous.

but i took too many photos.

way, way too many.

i'm not even going to reveal to you how many i took.

but trust me.

it was a ridiculous amount. 

so now i have to go through them all 

and get rid of the ones that i shouldn't have taken 

in the first place. 

this little guy wanted to be my test shot person

each and every time.

and yes, i know that he has an orange forehead.

it's from pastels, 

obviously. 

i think that i fear missing out on anything.

my mom says that i was like that even as a baby.

never wanting to miss a beat.

and i think it's carrying over into my photography.

and it needs to stop.
