Meet Dany and Issac – the couple from the La Jolla Engagement. \u00a0I get to share their moment.. & how the world takes care of itself in this post….<\/p>\n

They Contacted Me!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

So after a few nervous days on my part, I finally received the email that I was hoping to get. Early one morning I got an exhuberant email from Dany (the young girl in this picture) asking whether I had a video that I can send her so she could see. Throughout this entire time, Dany and her husband to be Issac had no clue that I had cut the video and posted it on youtube. The story is interesting to me on many levels. Read on to see why..<\/p>\n

\nThe video<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Dany, her friends, and her family were so overjoyed over the fact that the video even exists.. and it makes me so incredibly grateful that I was there to capture that moment. But the story hits a personal note for me on a way different level.<\/p>\n

I don’t know what i’d call it – but at its simplest form I believe in some form<\/strong> of Karma. Lord knows i’m not a saint – but I generally believe that you should put good moments out into the world to pay back for all of the good moments that you are given. I live a blessed life. I have the job of my dreams and a wonderful family.. I figured i’d break a little bit and share with you just how interesting the world can be.<\/p>\n

A Karmic Story<\/span><\/strong>
\nA few months ago, it would be an understatement to say that I was burning the midnight oil. Fistfulls of Red Bull in hand, i was committed<\/strong> to finishing a couple of projects I needed to get off my plate.. This meant a lot of near sleepless nights while I fiddled with passion project after passion project – an ever increasing amount of guilt of not getting to spend a lot of time with my daughter Sabine.<\/p>\n

It’s 5am one morning, and im churning through emails and looking at websites, with some music playing randomly from the internet (Think it was Pandora or something). From the corner of my eye, I see Sabine at my office door.. up earlier than usual. I pick her up – my guilt for not spending time with her weighing like a stone. Just at that moment “Please Dont Go” by Barcelona<\/a> starts playing (i’ve never heard of the band before).<\/p>\n

Normally Sabine is a very wiggly girl, being almost 2. It’s almost as if she -knew-<\/strong> I needed her to sit tight. Throughout the entire song, she didnt budge one inch.. all the while nestled in a hug – her little hand tapping me on the arm. It’s almost as if she was telling me “Its cool… im here” Choked up, I savored every minute of that song, and when she wiggled off at the next one.. I was recharged on a level I hadn’t been in soo long.<\/p>\n

But the thought stayed with me. That…. by all accounts.. was a very weird<\/strong> moment..<\/p>\n

I felt very grateful to ‘The Song’ and I wanted to find some project to do to pay it back to the cosmos.. I played it in my car and thought about the different ways I can use it to fuel my photographic passion. It was in the player on my phone when I boarded the plane to San Diego. When I stumbled onto Dany and Issac, I KNEW<\/strong> that was the moment I needed to do it for. I stayed up for a few hours working the rough cut.. and posted it to youtube knowing full well someone else would benefit from such a great moment.. as I did several months back.<\/p>\n

So in a great Karmic spin, Dany now has -her- moment to keep with the song.<\/p>\n

Want another interesting Karma spin? Her birthday is September 11 – Sabine’s birthday.<\/p>\n

Pay it to the world. The world has an amazing way of giving it right back to you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Meet Dany and Issac – the couple from the La Jolla Engagement. \u00a0I get to share their moment..…","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[10,9,3],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-396","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-blog","7":"category-featured","8":"category-photography","9":"cs-entry"},"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aboutrc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/396"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aboutrc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aboutrc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aboutrc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aboutrc.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=396"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/aboutrc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/396\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":443,"href":"https:\/\/aboutrc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/396\/revisions\/443"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aboutrc.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=396"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aboutrc.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=396"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aboutrc.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=396"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
