Weekend Recap

 Weekend Recap

Happy Monday!!! I’m back from a week in Chincoteague with my family and starting the week on a great note because I’m all caught up with editing up to this point! YAY! With limited weddings/sessions over the upcoming weeks leading up to the start of fall wedding season, I’ll be able to focus my attention on behind the scenes tasks. Album designs, gifts, and submissions are some of the many things I’ll be doing among other projects.

Honestly, I’ve been a little behind on things, according to my personal standards, so I’m looking forward to being back on track! It’s a good thing to have high expectations, but not good when you’re beating yourself up about it when you’re behind schedule. Chincoteague with my family was exactly what I needed to reset and move forward! 🙂 I’ll be sharing stories and photos on the blog this week along with some recent work!! 🙂

On a side note, I’m SO proud of this guy!!! Julien and his team played a great polo match Saturday night! 🙂 But lesson learned … BRING my camera!! Haha! *duh!*Weekend Recap

For now, enjoy this sneak peek from a sweet Chincoteague beach maternity session I did last week! AH! I’m so excited to share of these portraits and our time together!!
