My newest addition….

It’s here!!! The newest addition to the Sarah Goodwin Photography family. Drum roll please…….  5D Mark II.

Wipe the drool.

This is my unicorn, my elder wand, my one true love. I’ve been dreaming of her (yes her, they’re quite the divas) for eons it seems, even after getting her lil’ sister 7D I still thought of her often, daily in fact. Now I love the 7D, love love love it and it’s served me very well. I have gotten pretty good at compensating for the cropped sensor, which in my opinion was the biggest disadvantage. Despite my adoration for the 7D, there was still something about the 5DMII that kept luring me back in and had me searching for deals…just in case, for when I was ready to upgrade. I think I was actually scared of it, and not because of the price tag, but because I felt I just wasn’t ready, wasn’t worthy of it’s creamy, dreamy greatness. In fact, I had not had any intentions of purchasing the 5DMII when I did, but the opportunity and deal of a lifetime fell from the heavens and here she is. It’s love at first sight.
Do I think that this new addition is going to magically make me a phenomenal photographer with the crisp, clean, glowing images I dream of?…absolutely not. Do I think it’s going to automatically increase my business by 10x?…highly doubt it. Is it going to decide on my branding, market my business or seal the deal for some more awesome clients?…not a chance. Do I think its going to make me shriek at my bank statement?…totally. Did it make me pee my pants with excitement?…I’ll never tell. Is it going to make me work harder, think harder, nurture my creativity, pushing myself to be a better photographer & business woman? To strive to find my style & be true to it? To prove to myself that I’m worthy of it’s greatness. MOST DEFINITELY.

Now to name her…
