When you wish upon a star


Dear Blog,
I promise I still love you, I have just been consumed by so many great things that I decided to wait to share them with you. So a couple of months ago I was on the verge of quitting my job, I was afraid that I would not be able to use my degree without any experience. So as I tried to fathom why I continued to stay, opportunities came knocking on my door. I was chosen out of 300+ people in my division to be put on a new team. It was what I had been asking heavenly father for all along. A new position that would allow my talents and passion for my students to be used to good use. When I heard the news, it felt like a huge weight had been lifted from my shoulders. I now find my self being able to balance and focus on things that are important. I truly feel that god has a plan for me, and for it I am grateful. There have been many sleepless nights and tears shed not knowing what I was going to do with my career. I still do not know the full extent of my opportunity but I do know it was placed there for good reason. I am beyond grateful for every blessing god has bestowed upon me. There has not been 1 prayer that he has not answered for me. I am a lucky girl :0

I am also happy to announce that I have been given a great opportunity. I will be added to the Orpheums preferred vendor's of photographers. Currently there are only 3 others vendors listed. There skill is immaculate and I am not there yet, but it is an honor to be placed on the list. I will forever be in debt to my dear friend Lexie. She has been great, referring clients to me and sharing my visions. Funny thing is that I have known her only a few months, and I feel that her and I are kindred spirits. I met her at a photo shoot I was doing, she came up to me introduced her self and said, " I want you to take my pictures!!" (with a look of excitement on her face). I stood there puzzled because she said it with such conviction as is she had seen my work and followed it. We exchanged contact information, she set up a photo shoot at the Orpheum and the rest was history. Thank you Lexie girl, we are like peas and carrots are your hubby says :0

On the 16th of this month it will be a year when I decided to pick up my camera and make it a hobby. In that year, I have learned so much. It makes me excited to know that I can be a part of making memories, I love digging down to the core and finding those emotions. When I see emotions on my pictures, it literally gives me goosebumps because I can almost feel what my clients are feeling. For it I am very grateful!!!
Thank you everyone that has been a part of my photography journey. Thank you for letting me a part of your lives and allowing me to capture it for you.
xoxo
