Thank you for being part of this amazing journey but it's time to travel a new path! The past 11 years have been a rollercoaster of fun, hard work, new friendships, tears, loss and birth that I would not trade for anything. I've decided I will be closing my studio to spend my retirement with my husband and family, focusing on sharing some very important information and skills in the areas of self-reliance and homesteading. We will be selling out our remaining stock of lingerie and lounge wear (if interested PM me!) and closing Picture Perfect Lingerie boutique as well. This has not been an easy decision to make and is driven by a deep desire to provide others with the skills and knowledge so necessary in today's changing world. Unfortunately, many of the old ways and skills have been lost to technology and I feel called to this path to share and hopefully bring light to others lives in a different way than I have with my photography. I cannot express the way you have all impacted my life through sharing your unique life experiences and how blessed I feel to have been a small part of a moment that was special to you. I've laughed, hugged, and cried with you and have watched many of you move through marriage, having children and growing into new lives in new cities, states and with strong purpose.
We wish you all an amazing life filled with love, joy, exciting new experiences and happiness.
