Really, it’s almost March, already? Unbelievable.

I feel like I just watched my kiddos open presents under the tree, and now’s it’s March? Whoa.

Ending last year with a fabulous wedding made me re-think my business model. 2011 was defining in so many ways and I really pushed the portrait side of my biz, but I still secretly LOVE shooting weddings.

I keep asking myself, can I do both?

Can I do both well?

See, I decided to get out of wedding photography because it wasn’t fun for me anymore. I felt it was too much business and not enough play. I didn’t like how competitive I would get with other photogs in my area. Or how down I would get if I didn’t land one I really wanted. But I want to do this. And do it with my new found approach on life, to not take on this sense of entitlement and really find the right fit with my clients.

So, I graciously reached out to some of my current clients and asked if they knew anyone who got engaged recently and wouldn’t mind introducing us. And this is how I got to meet, Kristine and Justin.

My clients Becky and Chris put us in touch and we met on a cool Sunday afternoon. The two got engaged at a fountain off Bayshore in Tampa and we thought that would be a great background for their e-session. They are ridiculously cute. You can see how much love they share for each other. Kristine brought a peacock feather that they will incorporate at their wedding.

So, here are a few of my favorites.

This year has been filled with so many wonderful things already that I sure hope it slows down so I can truly enjoy every second.
