It’s been a LONG time since I have been able to blog something other than engagement shoots and weddings. That has been our life the last few months. This is our craziest time of the year and while we’re so thankful for our work and our clients, I’m looking forward to lazy winter mornings when I can blog about Bokeh Boy or a new home decorating project…. or a new Ask Anything post! The end is near and it’s bittersweet. We love this job and I leave every wedding with a huge “Mission Accomplished” feeling!! It’s incredible to look back at the past year and see all that we accomplished.

As we get closer to the end of the 2014 wedding season, it’s easy to automatically start thinking about the off-season. “What am I going to blog about? Did we save enough income to cover the slow months? What if we don’t book as much for 2015? How much is too much to take on? Did I live a balanced life in 2014? Did I do everything humanly possible to be a fantastic business woman this year!? I know certain things could have gone better….. etc, etc, etc. Oh gosh just STOP already! Goodness! I could drive myself crazy sometimes letting all of those questions pop into my head!!

Michael is very opposite from me in a lot of ways. One way is that he doesn’t worry like I do. He doesn’t constantly question if things were “good enough” like I do and he doesn’t let little things get to him like I do. That’s one of the many reasons why we’re a great pair. Recently I’ve realized that I’ve let all of those little questions pile up and steal my joy…. and that’s not ok.  It affects me, Michael and even Bokeh boy. I swear puppies know when there is stress lingering in the air!!

So today, instead of stressing over getting an engagement session posted and returning all of my emails and getting my entire to-do list accomplished, I’m writing this simple blog post about LIFE in its’ current state. There’s something about breaking the mold of what my recent habits have been that makes me feel refreshed!! If you’re currently in a similar season where shoots and weddings are piling up and your to-do list is ever-growing, I recommend letting it all go for an evening or a morning. We weren’t created to wake up in the morning and think about emails and edits first thing!! Let it go and reset your mind!! You can thank me later! :) Happy Thursday everyone! And Thank you Tyler for the new family picture!!
