๐ธ๐ A LITTLE REMINDER FROM THE GIRL BEHIND THE CAMERA!๐๐ธ
Iโm going to say this as nicely as I possibly can, but I really need people to understand something. โค๏ธ
I work a FULL-TIME job, Iโve officially started school back up, AND believe it or not, I do have a life outside of taking pictures! I know hard to believe that I have a life ๐
The amount of messages I have received over the last week and a half has been absolutely overwhelming, and I am trying my hardest to keep up with everyone while also editing thousands of pictures, keeping up with schoolwork, working my regular job, and handling everyday life.
Just because racing is finished locally DOES NOT mean racing is finished everywhere else!๐ I am actually still up in the air about traveling out of state to shoot TWO more weekends this month!
With that being said, I NEED A FEW WEEKS TO GET THROUGH EVERYTHING! Not a few days, not a few hours, but a few weeks. I promise your pictures aren't going anywhere, and I promise I haven't forgotten about you!
Something I wish more people understood is that one of the biggest reasons photographers walk away from something they once loved is because of the stress, pressure, and anxiety that come from people not respecting their time.
We are human beings just like everyone else. We have jobs, families, responsibilities, bad days, and lives outside of the racetrack. The only difference is that we willingly give ourselves MORE work because we love what we do! ๐๐ธ
I absolutely LOVE photography, and I LOVE capturing memories for all of you. But I also refuse to let something I am so passionate about turn into something I dread doing because of unnecessary pressure.
Please remember that supporting a small business also means respecting the person behind it.โค๏ธ
I appreciate every single person who has supported me, purchased pictures, shared my work, or simply said thank you this season. You truly have no idea how much it means to me!
But right now, I'm asking for one thing...
PATIENCE, PLEASE!๐ซถ๐ผ
Your pictures will get done. Your messages will get answered. I just need time to catch up, breathe, and enjoy a little bit of my own life too!
Thank you for understanding, and remember... the camera might be expensive, but the photographer behind it is still only human!๐๐๐ธ
