My kiddo at the beach just a few weeks ago during a location scout. Something I never thought I would experience in the middle of a weekday.
Even though I've been a photographer for over 10 years, it was two years ago today that my journey to find the photographer within myself really began. The fact that I am a small business owner with amazing clients, noteworthy equipment and a real passion for the job is still remarkable to me. I continue to surprise myself with new challenges and new accomplishments every single day and it's the best feeling to wake up to.
I needed to do something that represented how far I had come. What I really wanted to do was shout from the rooftops all the success that I felt in my heart for how much I feel like I've grown as a photographer in the last two years.
Instead, I did what I do best- expressed visually. I sat for the first time in almost a year and redid my website's homepage. I could not believe how many new images I was sincerely proud of and wanted to share front and center. The hard part is that when someone looks at a picture, everyone sees something different. There will be a different experience or story attached to it depending upon who looks at it. I must have put together 40 different combinations of photos trying to find the best collaboration and perfect flow of energy.
Thank you to everyone that has hired me, encouraged me and most importantly cheered me on. I have so much to be thankful for, the space provided here would never do and I could never formulate the words to fully express it. Enjoy.
I. Love. My. Job.
