Okay, so I am slacking on the blog a bit lately…but with good reason. : )

Last week, Phillip and I had the privilege of taking the youth from our church to camp for the whole week! We had a very exciting and exhausting time. We are back and are busy this week with Vacation Bible School at our church now! More exciting and exhausting times. We enjoy every minute of it though!

So, I have been praying and contemplating a few things and I am ready to share some things with you so that no one wonders what in the world is going on:

1) The studio. If you happen to drive by, you may notice that the sign is gone and items are being moved out…no, I am not shutting down! I will not go into detail, but there were some issues with the building that were not discovered until I had moved in. See #2 for more…

2) My family. They are very important to me! I want to be able to give  more of myself to my kids & husband each week without so much of a workload. My house and my family need more of my time. We are also very devoted to ministering in our church and I would like to be able to do that more freely…so, see #3 for the solution…

3) Portraits vs. Weddings. There is a big difference in the time it takes to complete each one. SO, I will no longer be accepting wedding commissions. My new focus will be on portraits, specifically babies and children! I will complete the weddings that are on the books already, but I will not be booking new ones. Now, I love weddings, so don’t get me wrong! But, I really need to change the focus at this point in my life and I am very excited about this new focus for my business! Portrait sessions will be somewhat limited and I will be only accepting a certain number of them each month. I recommend contacting me at least 4 weeks prior to when you would like to have your session.

Whew! There it is. Lots of craziness. : )

Feel free to call or e-mail me to ask questions or to book your session! As for holiday sessions, I recommend getting those on the books soon for the months of September, October or early November! I will only be able to take on a limited number of holiday portrait sessions, so hit me up if you are interested!

Thanks for taking the time to read about my crazy life! : )
