A Little Honesty Never Hurt Anyone

I have attempted in this blog to keep a professional appearance, but I think I need to be a little more realistic about my life and my business. As a mother of two crazy little ones life can be a little hard to balance.
What I learn in terms of photographing kids comes first from my girls and then is reinforced as I apply those techniques with families when I photograph them. I owe a lot to my daughters.
I am very grateful to be a mother and a small business owner. When I chose to follow my dream and start my business it was so that they could see their mother facing her goals and fulfilling them and not staying stuck in a nine to five office job that had no soul. Some days I revel in the creativity that photography allows me. The other days I slog through the administrative duties that running a business requires. It was not easy switching from being an employee and knowing exactly what the job entailed to being my own boss. I was very good at my previous profession. Now I work everyday at making my business successful.




So, after a stressful week I reset myself. Some days I have to forgo the paperwork and have some very silly playtime with my little monkeys.

Again I say that I did this not only for myself but for them and they do keep me grounded.

Lets do this thing.

I am finally making the leap to the world of the blog.

If nothing else this will allow me a personal space to ramble on about the photographic adventures that will no doubt accompany my adventures into the world of the entrepreneur.
The website is almost up. I had no idea the amount of effort involved in such an enterprise. I am very grateful to Paige and her endless amounts of patience. I am also grateful to my support team who continue to go above and beyond in their efforts to ensure my success.

The end goal is always in sight. To follow my passion and to prove to the girls that dreams are worth pursuing.


Lost in a world of pink the girls spin to the music of the faeries.
