Blah, blah, blogging with SwankPhotoStudio bio picture

Who I am . . . .

At heart, I am a kid.
At play, I am an artist.
At work, I'm giving a 100% of who I am to my art.
At home, I am a Mom and a wife and an accountant
and a nurse and a chauffeur and a cleaning lady
and a landscaper and an interior decorator and a chef.
I'm not perfect at it, but I work very hard at it everyday.

What you should know about me . . . . .
I'm entirely laid back and fun.
I like making people laugh.
I love a challenge.
My artistic eye and penchant for relating to people, I recognize and
embrace as my gift.
Being a photographer doesn't define who I am, but it certainly has
shaped the person I've become.
I'm a better person because of my photography and my clients;
my muses!

Am I wise? . . . . .
I've come so far and gained so much as a person by experiencing the
good alongside the bad.
I believe that in every obstacle or sticky situation in life, there is
an opportunity for growth in some way.
That a day not thinking about the future is a day neglected.

I am unique. I am close to my heart.
Bottomline, this is me!

So psyched that my studio is working for itself and one such client came my way as a passerby. Kathryn and her Mom were strolling the streets when they stumbled upon my studio. We were actually in the middle of a Vintage Vixen session so I had to ask them to call me so we...

AKA Adria

Sunday, October 4, 2009 Posted in Blah, blah, blogging with SwankPhotoStudio, Vintage Vixens

And I use the AKA because this girl can morph into several different Hollywood celebs in the click of my shutter.
