Seniors!
In mid-April I was really excited about how my next two months were looking. The school year was wrapping up at Boston University where I work full time as a photographer, and with that end of year comes lots of fun events and festivities to photograph.
For Cydney Scott Photography, I had booked more senior portrait sessions than any past seasons and I was so excited because I love them so much!
Around this same time, I was walking around the BU campus and turned my ankle off a step I didn’t see, spraining my foot and chipping a bone on the top of my foot as well. I was out of commission and I didn’t know for how long.
To say I was crushed would be a gross understatement. I contacted all my seniors, some of whom I was supposed to work with within the next two weeks. I updated them, offering later dates and other photographers to consider if they couldn’t reschedule. Predictable, many cancelled and went with someone else. ‘Makes sense as most students leave the area after graduating!
The next month was a study in patience for me. I do not sit still well. Not being able to work and being very limited in my mobility was a big bummer, and a lesson in the importance of simply sitting still and healing.
After an orthopedist gave me a “you’ll be better by then” date, and by the luck of Jada being too busy to respond to me and cancel like my other clients had (understandably) done, Jada was one of my later sessions and I was able to keep in the books. Hurrah!
So in mid-May with very mild soreness (which I didn’t even notice because I was enjoying myself so much!), I had the great pleasure of photographing Jada, who was vivacious, friendly and so fun to work with!
Congratulations to Jada and thanks for being a kind client to dip my toe back into the job with!
