A few days late into the year for this post but better late than never! For 2016, I chose "live" for my word of the year. I feel like I truly took that word to heart too! I enjoyed the warm sun in the Dominican, went to Atlanta with friends, spent a girls weekend in Savannah, paid off my car (that deserves a celebration in itself, right!?), enjoyed a night in Tennessee, spent plenty of warm Summer days at the lake, had more photo shoots than I could count... I mean, I could really go on! I honestly got so busy living that I haven't published numerous blog posts of sessions! Whoops! Even though I truly am such a homebody, I took advantage of every opportunity that I possibly could. God gives us this one life, so why not?
In January 2016, I sat & wrote down some of my personal & photography goals I wanted to accomplish for the year. One of my photography goals were to shoot at least three weddings. I actually surpassed that by doubling the number to six weddings! Weddings can be stressful (for everyone), but I love photographing them! Each one is always completely different from the next, which means I get to use my creativity differently each time. So far for 2017, I already have four booked! Eeeek!
After spending some time thinking of what my word could be for 2017, I kept coming back to the word embrace. I feel as if it is similar to live, but yet it is so much more than living. It's digging deep into every adventure, opportunity, moment, & chance that God gives us. It's holding onto something tight & savoring every second. Even if it is sitting on the couch embracing the last few months with just our pup before a baby makes her appearance into this world.
Here's to a new year with new adventures! Happy 2017, everyone! :)
