My clients will tell you that they receive their online galleries on time, and often early…but at curious times… 1 a.m. and later is still considered office hours around here. I’m blessed to have not one but two jobs that I actually like. But to keep things cranking along, I pull some late nights and do a lot of multitasking.
In this day and age, it’s hard to complain about having a job that keeps you busy and makes you really happy – much less two of them. Since I can’t part with one or the other, it was time to find a better way.
And so I set out in search of that certain someone…an assistant with a passion for photography and a heart for people. Word spread and I began to talk to some good candidates. A couple of weeks into the search, I received an email titled “A Raving Fan” that not only made my day, but kicked off what felt like fate.
Kirstynn didn’t know I was looking for an assistant – and yet, she was looking for the very type of opportunity I was hoping to share. Here is someone who is passionate about photography and ready to learn more, has worked with a photographer before, and knows a little something-something about photography herself – and she falls right into my email box.
We met for coffee and a chat and I knew instantly that Kirstynn is the real deal. She’s friendly, vivacious and eager to learn. She also loves to cook (I hope it rubs off on me!) and keeps a fabulous blog – an all-around catch! She’s also brand new to the area – so there’s a freshness in her eyes that I look forward to experiencing. I’m a life-long resident and seeing the area from her perspective will be revitalizing. I have much to learn from her and can’t wait to start working with her.
That I get to share Kirstynn with my clients is a bonus in itself. She’ll be coming along for some of my sessions and will help keep things running smoothly in the background as well. Welcome, Kirstynn – I look forward to working with you and learning together. Thank you for finding me!
