I like thinking outside the box.  And since I've decided to make couples/engagements/weddings the focus of Gilded Lily, I want new ideas.  Last night, with Brian's help, I took a macro photo of my wedding band against a favorite poem...with special lighting, a heart shaped shadow was thrown past the ring.  It makes for a really special, beautiful, and unique shot.  I want to keep doing that...find the extraordinary in the ordinary, things that will set me apart from other photographers.  I mean, other than the things like being fun, having red hair, and the ability to pinch hit an Ave Maria during your wedding ceremony if your singer doesn't show up...but I also want my photography to shine.  :)
