A Series of Fortunate Events.

I've been truly blessed to know a lot of great, talented, beautiful, generous, and of course, CONNECTED friends. A million phone calls, ok not a million, but more than usual, led me to appreciate time, patience, and friendships.

I got a call from former classmate, Dana, about joining their team as a production/photo/stylist assistant for their photoshoots, shot around the nation. They've published work in Vogue, and did a lot of print ads for Apple, and other corporate clientele. I must say, if I am able to join this team, things are going be great.

SO aside from all that here's what the week was like, and how its gonna be (photo updates later):
