Hey there, I’m Brooke Summer. Yes, that’s my real name. No, my parents weren’t hippies. I love my name though, it’s cool, right?
I’m a photographer based in Colorado, and am navigating through all that I need to know and learn to grow my business.
Am I scared? Yes. But excited at the same time.
I feel like I’m supposed to be writing something profound about myself, but I’m a pretty goofy and laid back kinda chick. There was a skit a long time ago on one of the late night variety shows, called “Lowered Expectations,” about video dating, and it cracked me up. So even though I’m not dating, and this isn’t one of the cheesey videos, here goes.
Dislikes:
Dishonesty, lack of common sense, mean people, bad attitudes, three tubes of toothpaste on the bathroom counter that are all open and being used instead of just ONE, snooty people who think they’re all that and a bag of cookies, speaking of cookies – store bought chocolate chip cookies (like Chips Ahoy – yuck), raw onions, being ignored or ditched, Star Wars (only because of my guys’ complete obsession with it, don’t write me mean letters), any creature with more than four legs. Again, no mean letters, they freak me out. Yes, I know that spiders are good for insect control. Yes, I know that all of God’s creatures have a purpose. But that purpose is not in my home, got it? Yuck!
Likes:
Honesty, my Sweetpea, Starbucks iced venti vanilla lattes, the color red, anything that sparkles, the sound of the wind blowing through the trees, laughing so hard that I can’t breathe, popsicles, Tom’s arms around me, Kaden telling me jokes, being in the mountains, brownies, family gatherings, the smirk on Tom’s face when he thinks that he’s said something funny that is really NOT funny, sarcasm and dirty jokes.
There is so much more tothe “Likes” list… like the way that Tom still flexes his bicep whenever I touch his arm, to impress me. The way Kaden is protective of me, and always makes sure I’m okay, even though I’m the mommy. The way it smells after it rains. Picking up seashells on the beach, only to find out that there is something inhabiting that shell, and screaming because when I picked it up it moved and freaked me out. (That something probably has more than four legs, see, creepy!)
I love to capture memories. Usually with my camera, but sometimes with words, paper, my phone… you name it. Moments are important to me and I love to capture them so that in the future, those moments can be relived and remembered again.
Basically I’m a laid back chick with a lot of love. I’m super blessed and so grateful for all of my blessings. I know it’s casual that I keep saying chick, but I can’t think of a better word. Woman seems so… old. (No offense!) And I’m definitely not a girl. Chick is a little neutral. Chica? Female? I don’t know, I’m just me! :D
