PSA:
Please read this, and please see this as my love for yall!
This is something I wish I didnāt have to do, but I have to do it.
Not because I want to but for my sanity, my family meaning husband and children, and also just for boundaries.
I have always said I would be as transparent as I possibly can with my supporters, clients and myself with everything⦠and lately I havenāt been. Iāve been riding the wave, and itās going to lead me to burn out.
This is my first full year of being in the wedding industry (going on 3 years for my business though overall) and as I absolutely love and adore it, and I am so appreciative of what I have had the opportunities for. But I HAVE TO, like⦠have to⦠create these boundaries/terms and I shouldāve done it a while ago.
The reason I havenāt is because Iāve been wanting to appease every single person but in the meantime Iām putting myself and my family on the back burner, and not just that - im going to get burnt out and I absolutely do NOT want that.
The next two months is wedding season - meaning, I will be extremely busy and running on little sleep, rarely any family time and coffee.
The boundaries/terms Iām putting in place are to protect myself & my family, but itās also to make sure I am the BEST photographer I can be for yall as well.

Starting today/going forward:
š©· I will not be taking anymore engagement bookings until December/into the new year.
Itās not that I donāt want to itās that I literally have no more openings and I cannot continue to make room and stretch myself thin.
I am only one person, and Iām also a mom and wife and they need my presence as well.
š©· I will only be taking on a certain amount of bookings a month from now on.
š©· Any bookings other than weddings, will now be booked during the week.
Every once in a while I might be able to accommodate but I will not be taking regular bookings on the weekends anymore.
(Believe it or not, a lot of photographers do this)
š©· Sundays are my OFF days. I have been way too lenient with that lately to accommodate clients and itās not fair to me nor my family.
I will not be editing, answering messages/emails, or having any bookings on Sundays. Messages will be responded next business day.
Unless itās a wedding I have already booked - and even from here Iām out I might not continue taking Sunday weddings.
š©· Regular galleries, including engagement sessions will be sent out in 4 weeks instead of 1-2 weeks.
This is just only for the next 2.5/3 months.
****š©· I will be implementing something for my wedding clients to book their engagement session/location on a link instead of reaching out to me and so we arent constantly going back and forth. This way itās easier for both of us, youāre able to pick a time slot, and Iāll have a list of locations you can choose from or if you have something else in mind - there will be a place for you to put that.
**this doesnāt mean donāt send me inspo, I want all of that! š but this alleviates multiples brides reaching out at once, and Iām trying to keep up with all these messages and trying to get yall booked. Iām not exaggerating when I say yall have a 6th sense that when one bride texts me (about anything, booking etc) 3-5 other brides also reach out the same day lol.
I DONT EVER want my brides to feel put on the back burner so Iām hoping this new way of booking the engagement sessions will help tremendously. And if it doesnāt, Iāll go back to something else.
š©· Reschedules MIGHT happen, please bear with me as if a reschedule happens, I donāt take that lightly and it will be rescheduled quickly even if the date isnāt immediate back to back. You will be on my books.

As of right now - these are my boundaries Iām putting in place.
I love all my clients dearly and I love my business. But if I want to be my best self for yāall, then I have to first take care of myself and as of right now, I am not taking care of myself and itās starting to show up in my family, in my productivity etc.
Please be patient with me during this time/season.
Thatās all Iām asking is patience and grace.
The next 2 months is going to be hard but so rewarding and fun.
Iām so excited to capture everyoneās beautiful days! šš„¹š«¶š¼
If anything else gets brought up to my attention for boundary/going forward aspects, I will let everyone know immediately.
Thank yall so much for being supportive, loving, patient and kind. I appreciate all my clients so so sooooo much! š„¹š©· past, present & future.
If you have ANY QUESTIONS, about any of these AT ALL, please donāt hesitate to reach out.
