{october}

...is one of my favorite months of the year. I also love April, June, September and November but that's besides the point. I love October mostly because of Halloween! My favorite holiday (Thanksgiving is second)!

It also happens to be one of the busiest months of my year, repeatedly. Firstly, I am attending USF full time. Secondly, I work weekends at Howl-O-Scream at Busch Gardens (which is so much fun). Now, I also have so many photo shoots booked and planned and I have to make trips home and that's really hard to do when you're only free one day of the week!

But mostly coming up I have maternity and newborn photo shoots because so many people are pregnant! I'm doing my first official wedding either late this year or early next so I'm also excited about that. Then I have like... 15 photo shoots planned with no set date. We're just all so busy or we don't have the right everything else going on. It's aggravating that I don't have dates set for everything because I'm that kind of person, I need dates set. But it's also cool to know that even if there isn't a set date for it, it's coming soon.

I'm doing a themed shoot with my cousin soon (hopefully) for a magazine. I think it'd be really cool to be published like that and even if not for a huge one like Southern Brides or Real Simple or something, it's still really cool. Which also reminds me! I'm giving away a free photo package (including 2-3 styled sessions) once I reach 500 fans on facebook, so please, if you haven't already, suggest my page to your friends! I'm getting close, last I checked I only need a little more than 100!

Other than that, I have taken on a few other personal projects one of which will be started very soon to make myself some seat covers for my car because I can't find any yellow ones that I like, so why not make them myself? And in what little free time I do find myself having, I tend to be setting more and more Lightroom presets. I haven't used it too much since I got it a while back but I'm getting used to it - it's hard to switch software!

I hope everyone else has a productive October as well, I've got so much planned even into November, I'm so excited to do it all but I don't want any of it to be over! [Oh! And I absolutely love how "Elly B" is catching on in my everyday life, everyone's calling me that now! :) ]
