Overcoming

My photoshoot went great today... I blogged earlier today that it was with a guy who has shot pictures for me before when I was a child.  It was so nice talking with him and remienissing over back in those days.  My shots went great of course but as I was doing them I couldn't help but think back in my mind of the day he shot me sitting in that hospital room barely walking well.  And today he was shooting me doing jumps and running! As he was shooting I kept saying in the back of my mind thank you thank you thank you!!!!!

Its very ironic how when I was younger I would keep all these memories of that time bottled up inside of me and not discuss any of them.  As I have gotten older its all I think of, and its what I realize my purpose of life may be.... I remember when I was married never communicating with my husband or anyone of all the horride things I had gone through and overcame... But when I would run it was all I thought of.  My 1st running coach even told me over and over what a miracle I was and how I should write a book.  I even remember the exact run he told me to contact Runners Journal with my story, but I never had the time/gutts to and I honestly didn't realize how it could help inspire others.  And heres 5-6 years later & I've spoke with the editor of that magazine and he was very inspired himself and wanted to publish it! And now I meet up with Danny who did my shots today and all these memories are flooding back to me... 

But all in all my shoot today was great and it provided me with a peace that God was still leading me in the right direction.

Bizarre

Today I have another photo shoot.  It was very interesting how I got the offer to shoot with this photographer.  He sent me a message through email and said he liked my look and wanted to shoot.  I did the research on him and I have in fact taken pictures with him in the past.  Its bizare because he was the photograper for the Macon Telegraph and I had an article written on me when I was in the hospital at the age of 15 and he took my pictures then:)  Alittle different type of pictures but It is amazing the way things happen in life....

So I am trying to expand my portfolio to get more into the fitness modeling area.  This photographer tells me to take pictures in regular clothes not just my workout clothes. But I will be doing a shoot thats a football type picture that is different, and I am looking forward to that. So I am up and at em early this morning getting ready for this shoot in Macon.... I will definately update how the pics go I am excited to do this with another awesome photographer!
