I don’t take as many photos as I used to.
‌
But there are moments in life worth capturing.
‌
With days (or hours) away from a little one to join us, and many things to be done, my wife and I managed to carve out some time for a maternity photo session.
‌
I wouldn’t be myself if I didn’t decide to do it myself in an epic location at the right time. The 3rd of October was perfect. Even though clouds spoiled golden hour lighting, it turned out pretty well (no need to be modest here).
‌
I’m getting to the point in life where less is more and quality over quantity 99% of the time (in life and business).
‌
I’m less active on social media, and I haven’t created any content for myself in a long time, but that is... OK.
That’s the part of life I’m in, being busy with work (blessed with that) and getting ready for Emily to join us.
‌
I would love to have more time, but expect to have it even less pretty soon.
‌
However, I believe you can always find time for things that are most important to you. In that case, it was a sunflower photo session with my wifey.
‌
Life is good.

After a week, I can say the job is done.
‌
(Like 20 years ago)
‌
When I started my adventure at movie sets as a kid, my first jobs were in the props and scenography department. 
‌
This was the period of my life when I learned how to use tools, build items, and paint. The amount of odd jobs I had to do on set was amazing, from ironing curtains and carrying heavy furniture to making dinner for a movie scene.
‌
I remember one summer, productions were put on hold, and my friend and I had no work. A film and TV producer offered us a chance to re-paint a filmmaking studio. 
‌
With an attitude that no job is too hard for us, we spent weeks and hundreds of litres of paint doing that. Then, we sat in the producer’s office and were asked to price our work. We didn’t want to sound greedy (plus I messed up the numbers out of stress) and asked for £400.
‌
He said no with a blank face, and we sat in silence. It was a short silence, but it felt like it lasted hours while we were sweating like crazy.
‌
Then he said he valued our work at £1200 as we made it very professional. And this was a lesson for us to value ourselves and know the market price.
‌
(It was 20 years ago in Poland, and this money was huge for us.)
‌
Not to mention, that was the best school of life I could ask for.
‌
Good times.
