Sometimes I have to slow down a little and remind myself why I chose photography as a career – particularly when I’ve been as busy as I’ve been the past few weeks.

The day to day business activities can many times overshadow what I really enjoy about photography. The answer? Getting up at 5 am this morning was the shot in the arm I needed.

It’s amazing how beautiful God’s creation is when all is still and the day is breaking. Gradually things come to life. Rabbits. Birds. Hawks. … and in this case … Leiper’s Fork.

There you have it. That was my early morning today. Now I need to get back to work … I’ve got to get ready for an architectural shoot next week as well as a full day of food photography.

Life is good.
