A celebration of love... and my photography journey!
Pin It
Tomorrow morning I'll be taking off for Minnesota to capture the sure-to-be gorgeous wedding of my friend, Christina and her soon-to-be hubby, Tyler... This wedding is personally significant to me and my photography business.
You see this whole journey as a photographer was so unplanned. Graduating from college I had every intention of getting a teaching job. But God had something else in store for me... My little college sideline job of lifestyle photography sessions turned into a steady cliental base. I decided to take a year and peruse it, see if I could make a successful business out of it. While business was good in the next months I knew that I should start thinking about the next year. I really love kids and love teaching and unless I really felt God wanted me to be doing photography I should find a teaching job. So in November 2011 I asked God for 5 weddings this summer or a teaching job for the coming school year.
God blew me away!!! The inquires for wedding photography started coming in and some of my fabulous couples of this summer started booking. It was Christina that called the first of January to ask me to be her photographer... My 5th wedding. I'll never forget the feeling of gratefulness and peace that came after hanging up with Christina. God had given me direction and answered my request.
Now as I get ready to leave for Christina's wedding I am thinking back on the past months...
5 weddings photographed out of 8 booked for this summer, 2 issues of Inspired Magazine published, 2 trips to Texas for Senior Sessions, and numerous lifestyle sessions sprinkled in between.
It's been quite the journey. I have grown, I have doubted, but I am learning to trust this plan for my life, one that I never had in mind.
This weekend is not only a celebration of Christina and Tyler's love, but for me, it is a celebration of the love and plan God has for my life.

A New Baby Website!
Pin It
Aaron and Jacquelin Gunther are expecting Jailyn Noelle Gunther any day now! Last month I had the pleasure of doing their Maternity Session and am excited for the Newborn Session we have planned after she is born. You can view the website celebrating the coming of Jailyn here.
This website is the first of a new feature I am offering for Senior, Engagement, and Maternity/Newborn Sessions. Each of these sessions will receive their own custom website with a mini slideshow and an opportunity to share info about the graduation, wedding or birth.

If you haven't been following the blog, The Pioneer Woman, you are missing out! Ree Drummond is the blogger behind it and is a mother of four living on a ranch. Her blog covers a variety of topics from; life on the ranch, cooking, homeshooling, and my favorite photography. In her photography section she hosts photography contest were hundreds of thousands of photos are submitted for really cool prizes.
A couple months ago I began following her and will occasionally enter the contests if I have a picture that fits the category. This week Ree announced her new assignment, Sisters. On a whim, I entered the following two pictures.
Last night I was shocked to find my picture of the Brackbill Sisters (second picture) as one of the semi-finalists! I let out a scream and everyone in the house knew of my excitement! I am so honored that I was chosen from over 100,000 pictures to be one of the semi-finalists! Here is the blog and the other semi-finalist entries The Sisters Assignment!
