Full time Artist

When I woke up yesterday morning I was smiling...then I wanted to cry. The roller coaster of emotions I have been feeling the past couple of weeks, leading up to this change, has been intense. ( Side note: If my emotions were a real roller coaster, it would not be that fun, as I generally talk myself off the ledge pretty quickly.)

As one could infer from the sentence, "I just quit my part time-day job, to become a full time artist", I am terrified and THRILLED at the same time. My mind literally is on creative overload and the only thing bringing me back to reality, ever so often, is the notion that I do not have a guaranteed pay check every week. While I am terrified and excited, I also feel quite blessed to be doing exactly what I want to be doing, so early in my life. With every photo session I grow as not only a photographer, but as a person. The moments I am able to share with my clients are intimate and beautiful milestones in their lives, and my heart is touched with each image I capture. So to each of my clients, and those to come, thank you. Thank you for allowing me to do what I love and for trusting me to document your lives.

Cheers- to waking up smiling!! :)
