I've always said...

that change is the only constant in life. Change is everywhere, all the time. It's always been hard for me to accept changes. I constantly pray to accept change as it comes, but I've never been good with drastic changes. I am learning quickly that if I don't accept the way certain things are, I am going to be one unhappy camper. Just as I get used to one way, all of a sudden there's a new corner to turn.

As a photographer, adapting is one thing that is so important. If I'm doing an outside shoot and the weather changes, I have to change settings. If I'm shooting kids, I have to move with them. If a baby is crying, I have to allow extra time for mom/dad to calm he/she down. Some things are easier to adapt to than others, but lately I haven't had the opportunity to adapt or accept that things WILL be different and I'm not sure how to feel about that. So many life changes happening so fast gets to be very overwhelming. I hope for my own happiness that I can learn to adapt as easily to a new environment as I can in the camera room.
