Bittersweet that this was my last wedding! Yes, you read that right... LAST wedding. In fact, last night I just had my last session for what may be a while. I have spent the last 8 years being home and present with my babies and my husband. Somewhere during that time, I found a love and a passion behind the lens. For the last few years, I have grown and learned so much about this creative outlet I've allowed for myself, and serving my community and clients with this self-taught gift has been an incredible journey!
I've always called this a "hobby job" because I knew it was just a temporary season in my life. I've used the last year to really be content in whatever is thrown at me - truly trusting God in every aspect.
"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you." Matthew 7:7
I asked God for a physical unconditional love to experience here on earth- He gave me my children and my husband.
I sought healing and how to learn to forgive - He showed me and continues still.
I asked for an outlet - He gave me this beautiful world of photography and creativity.
I asked and knocked as loud as I could for God to show me my purpose for Him in this world - He gave me an opportunity to advance His kingdom.
My mother told me to wait on the Lord. So I did. And now I've been given a chance to be in ministry and the choice to walk away from this indefinitely for that was no question.
Thank you; to all of you who supported me in this journey. For letting me freeze moments of time for you and your gorgeous families and giving me the honor to be part of such special parts of your lives.
I'll still be sharing here as I wrap up last sessions. Next week I'll be starting a new chapter, so enjoy these sweet little moments between the new Mr. & Mrs. Chappell.
