The Serendipity of Craigslist

I never figured I would see the day that I said I love Craigslist. You read about bad things happening there all the time, so I have largely dismissed that site. However, I was so very fortunate to give it a try, despite my preconceived notions.

I ran an ad this week to offer my services as a backup wedding photographer free of charge. Unbeknownst to me, I a talented wedding photographer needed backup, and now I have many weddings to shoot with Kelly. I am grateful and honored to work side-by-side with her, and I am ecstatic that she will be working with me when I do casual portrait shoots and senior pictures.

Thank God I left my preconceived notions at the door and proceeded to run my ad anyways, just to see what would happen. The serendipity of it all still amazes me. This is the week that my photography career got catapulted into high gear. I have no idea where I will end up, but the road just got paved with solid gold and I intend to enjoy my photographic journey wherever it may lead.
