Well… the news is out 🤍
When I first got this message, I legit thought it was spam 🤣 I have never really been in the whole submission of work world when it comes to photography, or competitions or anything of that sort (would love to start maybe one day!!) so I genuinely have no clue how they found me or what the qualifications are to have been selected. I can honestly say I’m surprised, not because I don’t have confidence behind my work, but because there are SO many gifted photographers in Indiana that I would personally award this to that I know are absolutely incredible at what they do. 🤍
Nevertheless, here we are. I cannot thank each and every single one of you enough for being here. I remember when I started this account in 2014 as a senior in high school just having FUN taking photos of friends and classmates. The snowball effect is reaaallll and took place over the years to follow. The word of mouth is what truly locks it in- beyond advertising and social media. So THANK YOU!! For sharing, liking, commenting, and speaking on my behalf in conversations that I never knew took place. The joy it’s been to get to know each and every one of my clients and random internet friendships is so full-filling. ❤️
I never thought my life would go this way- didn’t go to school for it, wasn’t thinking it could ever be me, and now looking back at how the Lord has orchestrated it all has been a wonderful gift. A gift I love sharing, and will continue to do until my time is up 🤍
What a great start to the last week of my 20s too 😬🤭💕
