Before any major photography shoot, I become very excited. These are the shoots that require a lot more time and effort, perhaps extra cash, etc. And this has happened to me now many many times. I've done the research, I've thought about the shots that I'd like to get, and no matter how hard I try to sleep.....I can't!

As I go into these events, my mind goes into overdrive! I dread evenings as everything comes to a close. Time is everything. Light is everything. So much to learn. So much to do. But it all flies by in the blink of an eye. Many of you may think that I just take pictures non stop, but I've gotten pretty good about organizing my time without the camera as well. There are windows for everything and I just plan my time around those windows accordingly.

But no matter how hard I try, I can never sleep before a major event. Sometimes a post will come to me in my sleep. Now, I don't plan them.....they just link up randomly in my mind. I jot down notes in my little green pad for later on and then come up with the writing and pictures organically as I sit down and go over my journal of the days events.
Why can't I sleep? It's the thrill, the rush...the adrenaline of what may happen the next day. I never know what it will bring and I guess that's why it's so exciting. Do any of you ever get like this the day before a trip,etc? And if so, what do you do to get your sleep!?
