new directions

I haven’t updated in awhile. Sometimes life gets crazy like that. My family has been going through a very personal and overwhelming time of adjustment. During this time, I’ve simplified my life in every way possible, including my photography business in order to process through the difficulties in a way that is healthy and balanced.

Funny thing is, during this time some amazing things are also happening, creatively and personally. I sense a change in direction for my photography and artistic skills. I don’t have a full grasp on all this will entail just yet, but I feel exciting things on the horizon.

For now, I will continue to do the shoots that I love to do on a minimal basis.

What this means for you, my wonderful clients and supporters:

1. I will only be scheduling shoots on Saturdays in the early evening hours. I can make exceptions to this for reschedules if needed.

2. I will not be offering wedding photography until further notice. I have loved the weddings I’ve done, but will need to wait until I have better resources at my disposal before I resume this genre of photography.

3. I no longer offer studio photography as I do not have the space available. I am still interested in boudoir and newborn photography, done in my studio space in the past, but have had some success using the home setting for these and would like to offer that as a solution for future sessions.

4. I made myself a promise this year to only shoot the kinds of things I love. This is harder to define, but one thing I will no longer be offering is large group photography. I will still be doing family shoots of course, but large groups of extended family is not something I feel I can do at this time. If you have questions about this, please ask.

I want to offer my creative skills in a way that I am great at and as a result, in a way you will love. This means I need to operate within the boundaries that I feel the best about my art. I have said many times that I am not a photographer for everyone. I am an artist that works best with people who want me to create my art for them and give me the freedom to do so.

I hope above all to continue to create works of beauty for all who appreciate and want it.

Thank you for your continued support.
