Camera – tick, baby – tick!

When I’m packing for a photo shoot the night prior I do all the usual things – charge and change batteries, check equipment, double check the time and location, pack backups to my backups and then a few not so usual things like adding the baby carrier, filling the wow cup and throwing in the carrot chips.  I get to work with one of the cutest and smallest assistants in the biz..
