Photos Will Live On Forever

3 years ago I left my day job to focus 100% on my photography business. And if you know me well enough you know that 3 is my favorite number. This 3rd year in business relying solely on photography income has been one of professional and personal growth. It’s been a lot of pushing myself outside of my comfort zone and taking some risks. In the past year I crushed a major goal I set for myself to reach by 2020, got an office, hired an assistant, had really low lows and even higher highs, seriously questioned if I should quit, then cried like a baby with a heart so full. Being in business for yourself is hard and scary and rewarding and fulfilling all at the same time. It's been a whirlwind of emotions, but I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.

I'm so incredibly lucky that this is my job, and none of it would be possible without you. I know, every photographer says that. But this really hit me hard a few days ago. I was sitting looking through photos I’ve taken of my nieces during their first year of life and I realized that what I do is really important. I always knew this, but it’s like something in my exhausted wedding editing season brain switched. My photos are going to live on forever.
