I’m all the way back.
I’ve missed this. Having my camera in hand, creating art, stilling moments, preserving life in portraits. I’ve missed laughing with so many of you, being invited into the most joyous moments of your lives, getting the best view of your best memories.
A few years ago I announced I was stepping away from photography for a while. My babies were so little and they needed me to be present a lot more than I was. I was dealing with some health issues that needed my full attention. And ultimately, I needed rest. Being an entrepreneur is incredibly demanding, and at the time the short retirement was needed, and I don’t regret it. It led me to more presence with my family, physical healing, and clarity for my future in photography.
Y’all respected my decision to step away. You were kind and gracious to me the entire time. And over many months, you encouraged me by your loyalty, often saying that if I ever came back, you’d be first in line to get in front of my camera again. I don’t take the compliment lightly.
My husband and I have been talking about and praying over the decision to step back into photography. While my role as mom always comes first, I’m also a photo editor and I don’t want to conflict with my editing schedule. But, creators need to create, so I’ve decided to return to photography in a limited but intentional capacity.
Beginning today, I am offering photo sessions a few times a month. From couples to families, I’ll be behind the camera capturing portraits that feel like you while still serving up an effortless and timeless style that you’ve come to know, love and expect of my brand from the past 10 years.
I have 14 dates available through December. My calendar has been conveniently linked. I’m so excited to see y’all again!
As for weddings…more on that coming soon 😉.
