“They’re just working you to death.” ~Abby, as I left for work this morning.

I explained to her that having lots of work to do is good for both my creative balance and my job security. All week long I’ve been creating content for The Ada News and Ada Magazine, and this evening I am slated for more.

Yesterday I shot the annual Christmas ad group photo for my newspaper. In the past, I shot it by hand so I wasn’t in it, but this year I used a self timer so I could be in it. Two people were out for the day, so I shot mugs of them and we ‘Shopped them in later.

I don't know exactly why it's a tradition to pose for a "goofy" shot at the end of a group session, but we wanted to do it, so here it is.
