A shot in the head

Things have been a little quiet around here for a number of reasons, some exciting and some not so much.

I've been bitching and moaning for years about how badly I've wanted to make Lula Photography my main gig. When Miles came at the same time I lost my social work gig, I ran out of excuses. So I've been quietly making progress on a new site, learning more about small businesses and branding, and bolstering my photography profile (networking, advertising, looking for work, etc).

I've also been nursing and changing mountains of dirty diapers.

Part of the site redesign and professional upgrade is thinking about a head shot. Dude. Getting the right head shot seems totally impossible. It's either too pretentious, serious, unauthentic, melancholy, silly, unoriginal, or just plain weird. It's also quite possible that I'm over-thinking it and should just get it over with. Maybe I should just have Eva take it and then go have a bowl of ice cream.
