I had the most busy weeks ever, but everything is finished for now and…in a couple of hours we’re off to Curaçao 
Yeah, I am really looking forward to going there! We were supposed to go in June but it got postponed a couple of times…and I now I don’t mind that with the cold Fall weather we are having right now.
During the next 10 days I will have limited email access but will check regularly so if you have to wait a bit longer for a response…you know why 
OK, I’ll stop….Take care XOXO eef
It’s fun to see how one kid looks totally like dad and the other totally like mum!
And this is the front & back of the birth announcement…I love how this turned out
Have a great weekend
I got an email of my friend Margot this morning to check out a link. I read the email but didn’t check it out. Later that day I had her on the phone and we were discussing how to photograph some new products and she asked me if I checked the link. I said no. She said I should check it and I did when I got home….OMG ha ha
We were short of a model while we were taking some pictures for Minimonkey this spring and she asked me if she could take a picture of me. So I set the camera and she took it. But I never realized I would be all over the world with this picture….(she sells her products in Australia, Japan, Europe etc).
I had the same thing years back while I was marketing manager at Ouwehand. We had quite a tight budget for a shoot for the new campaign and we decided that a colleague and I would be the models (to save model costs). Never realizing that we would be hanging in every fish shop in The Netherlands, Belgium and Germany for the whole year and would be in advertisements in the supermarket magazines etc… A couple of months ago I saw a fish shop in Amsterdam that still had me hanging there eating herring I took a picture with my i-phone.
I put a smiley at the end of the sentence and went looking on my computer for the picture. But seeing the poster made me cry. I never wrote about this on my blog, but March this year we lost our family business. After it had been in the family for a 104 years. It feels like a family member has passed away. I just buried myself in work and thought I could just go on with my life. But a while ago I was sick and I did a chakra reading with tarot cards and it was all there on the table, the destruction of an alleged security, the collapse of the family business terrible like a death but also a relief and brake down of prison walls…I cried and I hadn’t cried like that in a long time. Afterward it felt like a stone was lifted from my chest…It is strange, it closed a door to something I really wanted and that was really close. This was the 3rd time in eight years, since I joined the company, that I thought I would get a chance to help change the company and bring it back to its full potential. But I did not.
It did open another door, with the end of one dream there was also a fresh start for another dream, my photography business. And I can say with a smile back on my face now, that it feels good and that I am happy persuing the dream I am living now
Here’s a sneakpeak of a super cool project I am working on Life is good! (sorry rev stole that one from you 
) I am super busy at the moment. Fully booked till the end of the year and already bookings quite a bit into 2010.
Having a great weekend and so happy that we go to Curaçao in two weeks! Can’t wait to go, really looking forward to it. Fall is turning into winter here brrr…..and there we’ll have some sun, sea, meeting up with old friends and photoshoots with the most amazing light.
Have a great Sunday evening & I wish you a super good start of the week tomorrow!
