When I started my photography journey, I decided I needed a website. I eventually created a website and originally included a blog. I was absolutely terrible at blogging. I never knew what to say and I tried to blog every single session (which wasn’t a lot in the beginning, but hard for me either way). I had so much trouble keeping up with the blog, that it became extremely boring and pretty excruciating to read. I decided to delete the blog from the site to save readers from the agony. About a year passed by and so much has happened. We went from a family of 4 to a family of 6 and our photography business has grown so much. During my pregnancy, I think I was so terrified of something happening to the babies that I didn’t put forth much effort into photography. I didn’t grow too much as a photographer during those last few months (although my belly did!), but I did continue to follow the work of other photographers that I admire so much. After the twins arrived, a spark was ignited in me that I haven’t seen since I first picked up a camera. I knew I needed to improve and I knew that I wanted this business to go somewhere. I also realized that I loved reading other photographer’s blogs and without them I may not have continued to follow their work and may never have been so inspired. Obviously, I had to add the blog back to my site. I know that I won’t be blogging every day and I’m ok with that. I’m a mom first and I have to take the time to chase all of these boys around, but I do know that I need to make an effort to keep this up and that I need to challenge myself. I won’t be blogging about every session, but I will definitely be posting about some. I will probably use this area to post about some of my own photography projects, since I personally like to read about the more personal lives of other photographers. I have learned that I have to keep challenging myself to keep this passion growing and I think that posting some of these challenges on this blog will help hold myself accountable. 🙂
Hopefully, I can make this enjoyable for all of our followers! Thanks for reading and stay tuned!! 🙂
A photography blog isn’t much without photos, so here are some of my little loves:
