A dangerous job or a clutz?



We were out shooting an engagment session with Tom & Michelle, and they wanted to incorporate Tom's car into the engagement session because it's one of his passions to restore vehicles. So we had this brilliant idea of heading out to the desert. We get there and we're stopped by security telling us we had to have a permit. I'm thinking, what in the heck is security doing out here?! Turns out we were on the property of a nearby resort. Chris then leaves to go and talk to whoever he needs to talk to. He turns to me and says, "keep shooting." Talk about being put on the spot! I'm standing there thinking, ideas?!, ideas?, ideas?!

We or I mean, "I" continue the session and we're trying to hurry because we had a pretty good feeling we had to reschedule for a later date and there was going to be fee. While I'm rushing around I scraped my foot on a piece of branch..ouch! My foot is sort of bleeding but I finish up until Chris gets back to tell us we have reschedule.

When we get home, Chris starts taking out these HUGE splinters. Very painful! (i'm a wimp) The next morning I wake up to find my foot swollen. Chris finally convinces me to go to the doctor because he said it's probably infected and I wouldn't want my foot cut off!! Rude!

I get to the doctors office, and it's infected. So the doctor puts me on antibiotics and gives me a tetnus shot! Turns out later that day, I have an allergic reaction to the shot. I started to break out in hives and my arms and face got super swollen! I go back to the doctors the next day and I'm given all these pills to take! Ugh!!!!! ...oh and I can't wait until their wedding at the end of the month. :o)
