The (new) swing of things

17 Aug

I have neglected this blog/website for too long!  It’s been so long it needs a whole revamp, and that’s what I’m in the process of doing, so please bear with me as lots of changes are coming soon!  I have been working a LOT, but all photos have been uploaded just on Facebook for now- head over to my page there and “like” it if you haven’t already!  Being a mommy is my number one priority and job, but I am blessed to photograph so much life and love as well.  Here is a teeny *tiny* snippet of my last couple of months!

I will leave you with one of my favorite pictures from when my baby girl was 10 days old. (She is now 7 months! Yikes!)

Taking a break

12 Jun

The biggest sign that this is a necessary break is the fact that I’ve tried to write this post over 4 days & am just now finishing it.  My husband & I were ecstatic to find out 6 weeks ago that we are expecting a baby in January!!  Unfortunately, about 4 weeks ago I was hit like a train with pregnancy sickness.  Without medication, my sisters, cousin & I fall into the 1% of pregnant women who are diagnosed with hyperemesis gravidarum; a condition which causes us to become severely ill & vomit uncontrollably many days.  Both of my sisters & my cousin were very sick until about 20 weeks, and I’m currently at 10 weeks.  Fortunately, prescription medicine is helping me keep it under control at this time, but I’m still unable to do any photography sessions or editing.

So clearly I’ll be taking a break from booking any sessions until I am feeling better, and thank you all for your patience & support!  We’re so looking forward to growing our family by two little feet, and you know that I’ll have plenty of pictures to post in the future!

In His Grip,
