Four.

Last month, my business turned four. It is hard to believe that just four years ago I picked up a camera and started down a path that would lead me away from a law career and into one that excites and motivates me every day. One that gives me the freedom to be the type of mom I want to be, to connect with people on a much more meaningful level, and genuinely makes me feel as though I am fulfilling God’s purpose for my life.

Like most photographers, I am guilty of devoting far too much time into looking at what everyone else is doing and being critical of myself for not reaching certain milestones.  With social media and Pinterest, it’s hard to not get caught up in making those comparisons.  Reflecting on this last year and what lies ahead, I am committing to breaking those bad habits.  Rick Warren once said, “Those who follow the crowd usually get lost in it.”  Focusing on my own unique path, I have a lot of amazing things in mind for the next year… I look forward to sharing those with you all.  The last four years have been absolutely amazing and I would not be the person I am today without the incredible support and love from so many. Thank you!
