This, That, and Photography

First and foremost, I want to thank everyone who let me photograph such beautiful and special moments in your lives, truly it has been a wonderful! 2013 was a very busy and amazing year for me! I recently got engaged to my very best friend, and I'm very excited about starting this new adventure with him!

Photography has been a passion of mine for a very long time, capturing beautiful moments, and being able to share them with others is such a blessing. But as I start to think about what the future holds, and the paths that are presenting themselves, I realize that I have many things that I am passionate about, that my future husband and I are passionate about, and I want to pursue those things.

SO, drum roll if you please...

I will be changing my name to This, That, and Photography  :)

There are a few other changes, besides the name, that I'd like to mention...

*The biggest change is that I will no longer be accepting wedding sessions, except very small ones. Availability is based on location, amount of those in attendance, and length of the ceremony/reception.

*Secondly, I will be offering more "mini-sessions" throughout the year, complete with props, themes, and all sorts of fun stuff I have in mind! (I'm very excited about this!)

*Thirdly, I am now offering "natural light" boudoir sessions! (fully edited) 

So that is basically it for the changes to my photography. I love taking pictures, and I'll never want to give that up. And although I'm trying to make some room for other passions, I'm really excited to "finely tune" my passion for photography and continue to capture all those beautiful moments.

As for the "This and That", I will be pursuing many side projects, some pertaining to photography, and some not. Some of you may know my mom, but if not, I'm honored to say she is quite fantastic! Her work ethic, and wonderful touch for creativity has helped make me into the woman I am today. I remember as a kid, all the beautiful crafts, clothing, decor, and more that she would make, either to sell, or for gifts, or for events. That "craftiness" is in me, and I can't help but answer its call! Also, I'd like to tap back into photography on a more "artful"and maybe at times "journalistic" scale. I don't want to go into too much detail as to what that all might entail, but please stay tuned!! :)

Again, I'd like to thank you all, for your encouragement and support, and for the amazing opportunities to take a peek into your lives and capture your beautiful moments!

Oh, one more thing, facebook is making it very difficult to change my page name, I'm not sure if that means I'll have to make a new page (I hope not) or if it's just a long, painful process. But I will still be working from my current photography page. You may still contact me through there or at my new email address thisthatphoto.info@gmail.com Thanks!
