Last day off before things get crazy. Ive been so tired that I have spent the bulk of the weekend sleeping, with the exception of a few hours to eat and take a few shots (I know that probably sounds super lazy, but dang I needed it) . Tomorrow is the Vegas Workshop, Wednesday I fly out to Nashville, and then the Nashville Workshop is Thursday-Saturday. Looks like the mock wedding shoot is going to happen, its just a matter of a few last minute details, but it will probably be on Thursday evening from 6-9pm.
I took this picture about a half hour ago, literally while on the phone with Adam (my video editor/camera guy). Ive always wondered what the deal was with all these guys walking around with notepads at hotels/resorts, talking obnoxiously in their cell phones about business stuff, and I now realize I am one of them.
It seems the more video production work I do, the more and more planning there is. I go through notepads like crazy, lists, things to do, lesson plans, diagrams, caluclations, etc. It used to be the shooting was the hard/stressful part, now, I spent the majority of my production time on planning and organizing resources in pre and post shooting. The shooting feels so less intense now, almost like a formality. I still enjoy shooting- its just interesting to me to see how my production work flow has shifted over the last 2 years. 
cool shoot and what is that on the notepad you been counting cards or is that a list of show girls numbers LOL have fun don’t lose to much money
Michael you need to re-read that first sentence that you wrote. Shots can means several things….ha ha ha : ) I don’t think you are lazy. You work really hard and if you need to rest, do it. This is an awesome "shot’ by the way. Really nice work.
Hope you did something fun on your birthday!
I’m sure it’s exhausting just thinking about the next week and how it will all pan out – but it will, and each day will happen, with or without a hitch. You do an incredible job, and encourage so many as we continue to grow at whatever level in our photography – enjoy your rest, and the journey 🙂
I am so glad Nashville could steal you away from Las Vegas. There is great Photography in TN. 🙂
