Tears of Joy

11.29.14

 

 

 

This year has been over the top the best year out of all three years of doing this as “hobby/business”.   I am extremely proud of myself of on how much my talent has grown from the start to now.  Photography is a learning career choice.  You NEVER stop learning and you will never know it all.   You are always researching, buying and pursing to better yourself.  I love the challenge photography gives me and the ability to learn every time I snap a picture.  It’s nothing like the jobs I have had before where you sit a desk and do nothing important for 8 hours of the day.   Now I sit at my desk and create work that brings so much joy to my clients and of course myself!

Then&NOW
It all started with just a simple point and shoot camera back in 2003 when I was in high school.  I took many pictures before then but never really enjoyed it until I was much older.  I would snap pictures of everything from the sunset, to birds flying, to lakes, rivers and beach sides.  It didn’t matter what I was taking pictures of but I was snapping away freely and in my own world.  It wasn’t until my parents purchase my first DSLR camera for me one Christmas that I began to realize how much I truly enjoyed taking pictures.  My passion soon turned into people contacting me for pictures and wanted me to capture their memories.  I had NO IDEA what I was doing.  I had no idea about ISO or Shutter speed and Aperture.  I shot in auto mode and had no idea how to use white balance.   Today I have learned to use all those amazing settings to be able to create work of art that are timeless.

Then&NOW2

I look back at where I started and look at where I am now and I can truly say that I have grown in my ability to create some amazing work but my artist eye has always been there.
Along this journey I have met some WONDERFUL clients who I can say are some of my greatest friends and biggest fans.  I have been blessed beyond words on that amount of wonderful returning clients I have had over the past 3 years.  They have trusted me over and over again to capture countless memories.  They will never know the joy that surrounds me when they contact me each year.  It’s like I want to do the sound of music dance on a mountain top and sing! ( I know that is crazy but it’s how I feel)

These are just a couple snap shots of what client’s are saying!  I really enjoy reading these reviews and comments towards me.  To be honest I cry like a baby and smile with tears rolling down my face.  Theses words help me by knowing I am not only giving you the best in my work but the best in service too!   I love hearing feedback ways to improve and things to keep doing to help make custom photography about the client. <3

The ongoing support from my fans, clients and family PLUS friends have been amazing and truly heartwarming.  I hope to continue to grow and learn more to be able to better serve my clients.
