Hey y'all!
Happy 2021! π
I promised myself (and my mom) that I wouldn't make the dreaded "going away" post, but it feels unfair to leave everyone out of the loop. To get straight to it- I'm stepping back from photography for an indefinite amount of time and I'm not sure when or if I'll be open for bookings again. I love each and every one of my clients so much, and I am so grateful for everyone who has supported me!
For anyone who's as nosey as me and would like a little reasoning as to why I'm stepping back, here's what you're looking for! As of May of last year (2020), I received the opportunity to work a dream job of mine! I adore my job and all it's facets- one of those being the need to create unique content every day. Where I excel at this job, another suffers, and I could see my photography no longer living up to my personal expectations. I am my own worst critic and hate anything that's halfway done, which is largely why I'm stepping back indefinitely. I have never delivered an incomplete product, and never will, but I know a burned out artist when I see one, and I am definitely at that point. My work and personal life balance is practically nonexistent, and sometimes "hustling" your way through life isn't the best way to live. I will continue to pursue photography personally, but it'll be on my own time and I won't be taking on anymore clients at this time.
To anyone who has had photos done by me in the past- don't worry! Your albums will remain up. If you need your link resent to you, don't hesitate to message me! To anyone waiting on photos, those will all be completed and uploaded by the beginning of next week. I'll send your links out as soon as they're ready!
Once again, I am so very thankful for anyone who's booked with me and allowed me to capture their lives. A photo session is such a personal experience, and I'm honored to have shared so many experiences with so many great people! Creating brings me so much joy, but seeing happy clients has always brought me the most. π€
With the most love,
