It’s time to fly! I know, what does flying have to do with anything? Keep reading.. I promise it’s a good one!
You might think from this image that I would be writing about Jessica and Caleb. You will find out all about these two next week, but for now I wanted to talk about this picture.
This past week was the first time I got to meet Caleb, and really hang out with Jessica for more than an hour at Starbucks, which I would like to add that we met last year. One thing I genuinely notice at every session, is how much I am head over heels for each couple I get to hang out with.
That completely sounds weird I know, but I truly love each one of my clients like they are my own friends, which they are my friends. One thing always stands out to me at every session I set out to do. The amount of smiling and laughter between everyone.
I am in LOVE with laughing, and really happiness to be honest. Laughing and smiling is just good for the soul! This image represents happiness, beauty, and love. It makes my heart happy! Jessica and Caleb are in love with each other and it’s amazing that I get to be apart of showing them what that looks like.
I guess that brings me to my next conclusion. Last year I made a HUGE decision in my life to quit my day job to pursue this dream of being a photographer full time (check out the post here). Before I made that decision I made baby steps up to that by doing two workshops.
For a few years I thought maybe I should do a workshop, but workshops are expensive. Was it worth the investment? ABSOLUTELY, it was totally worth the investment! I don’t think I would be where I am without Julie Paisley Photography and Twig And Olive Photography.
For some reason I spent years thinking I wasn’t worth investing in. I finally had a breaking point with myself and what I wanted for my life. I am worth it, I am worth investing in! I have grown so much this past year because I stopped worrying about what everyone else was doing and I focused on what I wanted.
So this brings me to a BIG decision I made Monday this week! I decided to take another workshop. That part wasn’t hard for me to decide. What was hard was the fact that I am going to fly to get to this one. I haven’t flown in FIVE years!
I feel like I need a handbook on how to fly! Hopefully I don’t get frisked by TSA because I’m overly friendly, and I want to hug everyone! Not to mention all the rolls of film I’m having them hand check! I know they are going to love me, I feel it! 😉
The workshop is with Amanda Watson Photography. I am really excited to learn from her along with Wedding Sparrow, Indie Film Lab, Mastin Labs, and many more! Just in time before wedding season starts for me!
Follow me this Sunday on Instagram by clicking here! I will be posting updates from this adventure throughout the week! I can’t wait to share this with each of you. I’m excited to see what this season brings us!
With love,
Michelle
I want to stay in the loop about...
I adore Instagram, and Insta- stories even more! I share the good, bad, and ugly. With real life talks, to products and clothes that I love, and of course everything related to photography!
