this is a "feel sorry for myself" post - if you would like to bypass this post I totally understand.
I am not fishing for compliments - or complaints - I just need to get something off my chest.
I had a photo shoot today, and about 2 mins in I knew it was not going to be good. The wind was cold and the baby did not want to sit still. I come home and looked at the images. I am not happy.
I have a grey cloud over me. I feel so bad. I feel like I should not be doing this. I feel bad for taking money when I can not perform 100% of the time. I feel like a fraud. I will give her the option of taking the images and giving her money back or re-doing another session when/where she would like.
My mind races with images of people I respect and admire and I feel ashamed!!! I have a very looooooong way to go. I will get back on the horse but I this feeling will stay with me for a while.
Now I must go drowned my sorrows in chocolate chip cookies.

I am sure this happens to photographers all the time. Especially when babies are involved. You do 5 minute miracle photo shoots all the time. Just re schedule and I'm sure it will be great!
