Day in the Life

Hey everyone,
   I'm settled into Biddeford and I'm loving my little workplace. Unfortunately I haven't been able to visit any shops around town, but will be doing so this weekend! Heres the start to a new adventure.

 Ive collaborated some photos together to show what my average day is like with Chic Origins and KAngell Photography. It is pretty simple and sweet! Consistency makes my businesses run!

   I usually use my mornings to shop. I will make it to the thrift shops that are open at 8am and work my way up north stopping at some estate sales during the summer if I find them in the paper or on craigslist! 

    Depending on the day I may have a photo shoot in the afternoon. This shot was where I was prepping to take some Christmas photos for a plastic surgery office!

    When I get home in the afternoon I'll work on some social media, sometimes blogging, updating listings on the shop, responding to emails and editing photos.

 
    Organizing and and keeping track of inventory takes up a bit of my time. It took me three years to figure out an efficient way to catalog my inventory. I have it down to a science now!

    Luckily I live near a Post Office that is open pretty late so this is usually my last stop of the day. Shipping all the way to Singapore, China, and France for example can be time consuming with the customs forms.

   If I have time in the day I'll try and get a fun project done at home like creating a sweet bed for these succulents! My apartment is adorned with them. 

    And almost every night I end with a nice glass of Cabernet and some Netflix. If you don't take time to rest, your dream will become just a job to you. I never want to lose my desire to keep creating.

Hi everyone,
   A quick update this weekend going into the holidays! I went into the city today to scope out some places for my model shoot with Caitlyn Duffy next week! Make sure you checkout my sneak peeks of her next week on my FB Page. Stopped at Crema and had a little tea while editing the rest of Hannah & Brandon's Engagement shoot. All up to date on editing thus far, now looking forward to some creative ideas I have in store for this winter's shooting!

My Polaroid camera came in the mail with some film already in it. A lot of the film was damaged, but I managed to get a couple test shots of the Christmas Tree. Polaroid film is so expensive, but it's a fun and different way to express my creativity. Looking forward to playing around more with it. Chic Origins had a successful weekend in sales! Some of the pieces that sold are listed below. A lovely someone from Turkey purchased my favorite brown suede boots find! Be on the look out for more photojournalistic day blogs like this!
