I really love being a photographer – I really have so much fun and have met so many great friends. I love working, coming up with new ideas, and watching the magic come alive when I see all the photos after a session. So it is hard for me to take a break, but you know what, this little guy has been good for me. He is making me slow down and rest. (but not sleep – ha!) I had this big to do list of things I was going to get done in January (you know – when I was still pregnant but not taking any more sessions before the baby was born) I’m realizing the big list can wait – spending most of my day snuggling little man, building legos with Owen, and online grocery shopping. (best thing ever if you have not tried it!) Oh, and sometimes we go to the starbucks drive thru and sometimes Michael leaves coffee on the nightstand for me when I wake up, because coffee is totally my love language.
February is my last full month of maternity leave before I will start working again…and I’m realizing maternity leave really is a necessity. Of course I can’t put the camera down, and I’ve so enjoyed capturing Owen’s love for his brother – these days are too sweet. I have heard from several people about spring sessions and those dates are almost all booked up. Dates are almost finalized for the Coastal Sessions – I am overwhelmed at the response this year. I’ll let you know the final dates either this week or next week – keep checking facebook/the blog for updates. (If you aren’t on facebook – bloglovin’ is great for following all of your favorite blogs. And of course, you can find me on twitter, instagram, and google plus, too.)
Goals for February:
