Time these days seems so short and now that the weather is getting nicer and the buds and colors of spring are starting to pop up, I'm super excited to get back into the swing of things! I have some fun family sessions coming up, a few weddings of my own and lots of second shooting dates for weddings to look forward to. It's true, things are pretty dormant in the winter but it's a great time to take a step back and revamp for the upcoming warmer months.
Now that tax season is over (PHEW!) and the colors of spring are here I'm trying to set forth some more personal goals for myself to make this new year better than it already is. I'm looking to do a personal sessions of mine to have photos taken of me in various yoga poses that I've learned over the months and show off some of my skills. I have a long way to go with yoga, but it's helped to quiet my mind! I'm also trying to take my camera out once a week and take some personal photos just for me. Whether it's a trip to Longwood with a photographer friends, or documenting my life, ideally I'd like to have more of life captured. I've gotten more into a health food movement which is great for my body! I'm trying lots of new smoothies and green drinks and overall just trying to read all labels on my food so I can live a healthier life. I've purchased lots of books to read which is you're looking for some interesting reads about living a healthier life, check out these books: Crazy, Sexy Diet, Slim, Calm, Sexy Yoga and The Healthy Green Drink Diet.
Some other great reads I've been lucky enough to get my hands one are:

I just got back from a wonderful vacation in Nags Head, North Carolina. While I didn't take many photos this year, I'm happy I took a step back from the camera. I had time to catch up with friends, my boyfriend and actually read a few books! The weather wasn't ideal for a week at the beach, but I brought the warm weather home with me, so spring has finally sprung!
My boyfriend and I just celebrated being together for two years and we documented the occasion by having photos taken from one of our good friends who is an AMAZING photographer. Seriously check out his website and take a peak at his awesomeness:
Having a business is all about balance. I think over the past couple of years I've come to a better understanding of having a personal life and being a business owner. You have to come up with a balance that WORKS FOR YOU. And that's exactly what I'm doing. Stay tuned for more exciting blog posts and happy spring everyone :)
