This is 30 ⚡️
30 years around the sun. 30 years of life’s greatest moments, hardest seasons, lessons, growth, and everything in between.
And what a crazy journey it has been!
My 20s brought me so many changes, but to name a few: married my best friend, bought my first home with Benjamin Saugy, became a first time pet owner, built and continued to grow my photography business, spent some time in social work, traveled to Italy for the first time and so much more!
Now, I get to announce for the first time as I enter my 30s, I am OFFICIALLY a full-time photographer! 📸
There were moments of self-doubt and wondering if I was good enough or if this dream could actually become my reality. So I just kept chasing it until one day, it did. 🤍
Now I get more time to connect with my clients, travel for more photo gigs, create, and be present with the people I love outside of sessions & weddings!
Photography has never really felt like a job. Getting to make a living doing something I love while capturing some of the most important moments in other people’s lives is something I won’t take for granted.
I am SO grateful for my husband, family, friends, and especially my incredible clients. Every booking, re-booking, referral, like, share, and word of encouragement means more than you know 🥹
So cheers to 30, a new decade, and seeing where this new path leads to!
