Maternity sessions feed my soul. But you know what else feeds my soul? Being a PRESENT mom to my kids. You may have seen in my stories that I will be taking a break after April to focus on my kids and my family. As amazing as photography has been to me, allowing me to work from home and stay home with my kids, I am going to be real with you guys. I’ve been STRUGGLING. I can’t seem to find the perfect balance between managing this business and being present with my kids. I joke with people that I have a split personality- When I’m focused on photography, I am so fulfilled and fall in love with every single client’s story that I have the privilege to document. I have such high hopes and dreams for myself with this business. But when I step back and focus on my kids, all I want to do is be a mom without the constant voice in my head reminding me of everything I need to catch up on (editing, emails, contracts, etc.) So, photography can wait. Raising my kids during these young, impressionable years cannot. And my priority is with them. THANK YOU to all of my clients who have invited me into their lives and allowed me to tell their story through my lens. I am forever grateful for you. I’ll still be sharing here and there, but taking a break from the hustle of trying to be a perfect business owner AND mama.
