Doesn't anyone want to do a spooky session? It's spooky season, and while it's chilly and windy outside now. I suspect it'll be warmer at some point, Let's gooooo

My art is now hanging at Artsy Octopus, I am still working on filling my booth, but I have some things there and it's pretty exciting : ) They are open Tuesday-Saturday 10am-5pm, there are so many lovely vendors there with all different types of things available. Go check them out! It's across from Jennette's Pier, & next to Dune Burger.

I usually upload my fun stuff to Instagram, but wanted to include this picture and quote from a book I read recently.

"When we were able to piece their story together, it turned out they'd found a chrysalis hanging from a branch on one of the oak trees. In a recent class, I'd told the children about the life cycle of butterflies, using the framed specimens in the library to illustrate the lesson. 'So we thought we'd give it a helping hand,' explain Gio. 'We only wanted to to let the butterfly come out and spread its wings in the sunshine. We wanted to save it the struggle and keep its strength for flying.' Francesca took the dead Butterly - so nearly fully formed - from Alrfredo’s hand and gently opened its wings with her fingertip. 'But you see, my darlings, you can't do the work for it. The butterfly has to struggle to release itself form the cocoon in order to become strong enough to fly. See how its wings were fully formed? But nature still needed it to go through a little more so it could develop its strength. You meant well, I know. You wanted to help it, to save it from the hard work. But now you understand, it's the struggle itself that gives the butterfly the strength to survive."

“And this, my friend, is what humans miss, again and again. They get so lost in all the details of life that they don’t see what’s right before them, right there every second they breathe air in and out of their lungs.” A Heartbeat at my Feet: A Novel, -Kristin Judd

My boss at my main job (Stellar Tile & Flooring Inc) let me hang a few of my prints up at work, and I’m so STINKING excited! I have some of them hanging in my own home, but they are officially in the wild and I’m pumped! Might not seem like a big deal, but to me it’s pretty big 😊
I have flirted with going to shows, finding some galleries that I could get into, doing all kinds of things -but this here was the perfect first step. It’s amazing how much cooler they look in frames and on a wall ❤️

Big thanks to my boss for her support 💜

A little Castle Color Photography reminder ❤

I know Facebook is where many people find me, but I am not always on here. I also do not always update this page. My website is the best place to find my works. I do my best to check messages daily, but if you need a quicker response, texting me at 252-305-1393 is the best way to reach me.

I also want to share something *important* about choosing a photographer.

I hope you never feel like you have to choose me because I was the first person to respond. I believe your photographer should be chosen because you love their work, connect with their style, and trust them to capture something meaningful for you.

I am not interested in being the photographer who races to reply, promises the fastest turnaround, or competes (at all, but especially) only on price.

I want to create beautiful images for people who value the time, creativity, and care that goes into the process.

I intentionally limit my sessions each week so I can give every person and family the attention they deserve. This also gives us flexibility when life happens. Kids have tough days, weather changes, and sometimes the sunset just does not cooperate. That is why we always choose a backup date when booking your session.

I may not be the fastest or the cheapest photographer, but I put my heart into every session. I take the time to create images I am proud to deliver and that you will love for years to come.

If you are looking for a photographer whose work speaks to you, I would love for you to explore my portfolio:

Christmas in July anyone? I love when people show up ready to do cool things! This session was an absolute BLAST!

Actually these were taken in October and I'm just bad at posting things.
