It’s taken awhile to get my new website up and running since I had to do all of this basically on my own, but I’m pleased to finally announce it’s up and fully functioning! Yay! The last few months LHP reopened after moving from Maryland and we have been loving the new area and the new clients coming our way. Sure we’ve had to reschedule a few times due to the weather and Oh right!..A Hurricane, but you can’t beat these gorgeous beaches and sunrise / sunsets, all the beautiful greenery around us, and the lighting! The sun shines so different down here near the Equator!.. We’ve been so busy since we started taking on clients and couldn’t be happier! As our first blog post I wanted to take a moment and express my heart on how happy being a photographer makes me.

I just love what I do as a “Career”.. Sure it’s hectic balancing the kids, the household chores, the pets, and other day to day activities, and sometimes while I’m editing and my kids are outside playing and enjoying the day I just think about how much I want to join them.. But I am my own boss. I can say “take a quick break” and go play with the kids, I can stay up late working and catching up and lose sleep because I’m not confined to an Office building, I can watch Amelia during the day while everyone is at school, hang out with her while I edit, and just hug her when I want because I don’t have to take her to daycare before I head to the Office every morning..
I am blessed. Blessed for my amazing and understanding clients and friends, blessed by the creativity God gave me without me even trying- Photography found me, not the other way around. Blessed that this is what I get to edit – Happy babies, happy families, happy couples, and people filled with love and joy with life. I feed off of this beautiful and pure energy and bring it home with me. It fuels me, it empowers me, and it keeps me going.
I LOVE what I do and I feel so blessed most of all that I get to bring people happiness with what I do! I get to make their hearts beat again with love and joy when they see themselves how I see them. These strangers let me into their lives to capture milestones and the personalities of themselves, their kids, their love, and their story. That is something so unexplainable and magical to be apart of and I’m so grateful!! 
So to all my past, present, and future clients: I want to Thank You!! And share with you all a BIG virtual hug!! Without you, none of this wouldn’t have been possible! As cheesey as it sounds, you all are the literal wind beneath my wings!!

I thought I’d add a little bit of something fun since I’m talking about editing. Here is a screenshot of a recent session I was editing tonight while thinking about how blessed I am to be doing this. How can anyone be unhappy while editing families and children who are always so happy! Be sure to notice the slight differences in what I did to the “after” image. Let me know if your eye can spot the slight changes. I’d love to hear more about what you find and think about the “Before” and “After”!
