Hi :) it's me :)
For those of you who aren't on my personal page, I thought I'd give a little bit of an update:
I have been out of the hospital since June 17th and have spent the last few weeks healing and finding myself again.
In the hospital I was put on Prednisone and mirtazapine to aid in re-stimulating my appetite and preventing nausea so I would be able to keep down food and drinks at home. So far, it has worked! Yay!
My doctors are still trying to taper me off the Prednisone, which isn't super fun. I'm hoping we can find a lower dose that works for my body.
I will be returning to work this coming Monday, after being off for roughly 16 weeks.
If you did not know, I'm a medical laboratory scientist 😁 which means I run ALL of your blood work and other bodily fluids 😁
I'm super excited and nervous to be returning to work. I'm still focusing on healing my body and my mental health. It has been a journey.
This all being said, I will only be photographing events I have already committed to before getting sick. One of those being the 4th Annual Bark in the Park event by Beth Weaver. I hope to see you all there!
Here's to 18 weeks of pregnancy, and hoping the rest is easier than the beginning 🩷

Hi all,
I wanted to let you know that I just sent out an email with the link from the photos from Wine Fest. If you got pictures and did not get an email from me, please let me know and I'll send it through FB messenger.
If you do not follow me on my personal page, I wanted to give you a pretty big life update.
I am currently 14 weeks pregnant. Shortly after Wine Fest (roughly 6 weeks) I began to struggle to keep down basic food and drinks. I found myself in the ER twice, and eventually my OB admitted me and diagnosed me Hyperemesis Gravidarum: Debilitating morning sickness. Over the past 6 weeks I have been hospitalized twice and have received constant IV hydration and some nutrition through IV in order to get my body back to a sustaining state.
This past week, after my second admission, I attempted to be admitted again through my local hospital twice. I knew that I was unable to sustain my self without medical professional intervention. After being turned down twice, I decided to try another hospital. They finally admitted me and have been treating not only my lab values, but also my symptoms. I am currently on IV nutritional supplementation (which I will most likely be on until my symptoms are under control) and have received, potassium and magnesium replacement due to low levels.
We are looking into a semi long term PICC line placement, but due to the fact that I have been so bad for so long, my veins are currently not strong enough or big enough for the PICC line. So, we are back at the drawing board, but at least there is a drawing board.
This all being said: I will be stepping away from photography indefinitely for the foreseeable future. My physical and mental health will ALWAYS come first (though I'm going to miss this and you all like crazy).

Thank you so much for your understanding throughout this. It has truly been one of the hardest physical and mental battles I have ever faced.

Announcement for those who got Baby Goat Pictures at Wine Fest:
I am currently on 2 weeks of medical leave due to hyperemesis gravidum (very extreme morning sickness). That being said, the edits will be delayed by a decent amount of time until I start feeling semi-human again (which I'm hoping is soon). I am so sorry for the inconvenience. At this time, my physical and mental health are my #1 priority.
