Street Style Stroll - Central Park

My heart is fluttering I am so excited to post these! The amount of people who were down for a full-on photoshoot made these photos extra special. I had multiple moments of snapping a photo and saying to myself, “I could just go home now, that’s all I need.” The feeling of getting the shot you were after - or in this case didn’t know you were after - because who I will encounter is always a mystery. To have that feeling with different people in different locations is quite a high. I really wanted to edit last night but I’m glad I waited and took my time today. Thank you to everyone who said yes to me taking their photo. You are all so beautiful!

Meu coração está vibrando, estou tão animado para postar isso! A quantidade de pessoas que estavam para uma sessão de fotos completa tornou essas fotos ainda mais especiais. Eu tive vários momentos tirando uma foto e dizendo para mim mesmo: “Eu poderia ir para casa agora, isso é tudo que eu preciso.” A sensação de conseguir a foto que você estava procurando - ou neste caso não sabia que estava atrás - porque quem eu vou encontrar é sempre um mistério. Ter esse sentimento com pessoas diferentes em locais diferentes é muito alto. Eu realmente queria editar ontem à noite, mas estou feliz por ter esperado e demorado hoje. Obrigado a todos que me disseram sim tirando sua foto. Vocês são todos tão lindos!

Funny, but after that last post about it being my day off I got a call from work asking me to cover for someone ... so yesterday was actually my first day off. I used to work in the morning but for the past couple months I have been working at night and it means that my sleep schedule is completely flipped. I really love getting to wake up when my body wants to. It's such a luxury! Today I walked to the gym, came back and made a particularly delicious lunch, and then took an hour-long nap before work. I feel like I have time for myself and it feels damn good. I'm savoring this, appreciating it. Also, literally everyone who came to my birthday get-together in Chico brought a bottle of wine so I've been indulging in them before bed ... tonight I sampled Julia's rosé and it was fucking delicious. 

cheers to getting enough sleep & self care <3
