Guys, I’m tired. I’m so tired.

NEW CLIENT
I had the joy of meeting with Travis and Sydney to book their 2021 wedding. I’m so excited to work with them. They are planning on a snowy engagement session, and a romantic fall wedding. I’m really looking forward to their engagement session and wedding. I’ve never done a session in the snow before and I know that working with the blue tones in the snow and the

COMPUTER RETIRED
So I’m throwing a retirement party for my 2012 iMac. I went to update my adobe software and I found that the iMac could not update to CC 2021, because it cannot update to the latest MacOS. It can’t update to the latest OS because the computer is just too old. Sadly, this means I have to replace a great machine. I started my career on this machine, I learned design on this machine, I started my company on this machine. This computer built my business.

ADOBE UPDATE
Illustrator won’t open and I don’t have my new computer yet so, if I’m working on any design work for you, please be patient. I will be in contact with you regarding the status of whatever we are working on together. I will be in contact with Adobe to get this problem solved. Truth be told, I really miss Illustrator.

EXHAUSTED.
October has been a tough month for this country. I mean, a pandemic, a heated election, a divided population, it’s a lot to be surrounded by and experience. We are in a challenging season and I think a lot of people are just really mentally, spiritually, emotionally, and physically exhausting.

As for me, I’m exhausted.

It’s been hard to be motivated. I’ve felt really overwhelmed and it’s just been hard to create. I’ve managed to do it, but it’s been really difficult. I think I might be facing some burnout.

That’s all I’ve got for October. I think I’m going to crash or my brain is going to break sometime in November.

Cheers, kids.
