Wow, another week as rolled around! This past week was a high paced week in the studio with several senior photos sessions, a lakeside engagement session, marketing strategy meeting, a design project underway, and studio manager training in process. It was all fueled by the power of collaboration, lemon cupcakes, carrot zucchini bread, and sugar plums…thanks to team members that know sweets is where it is at.

If you did not read Forrest Pritchard’s story….you must! It is such an inspiring story. The winners randomly chosen for this Master of Their Craft giveaway are @mrsgoody and @mrsnolt13! Congrats guys!

I hope your weekend is relaxing, inspiring, encouraging, and simply fulfilling….in a way that leaves your soul at rest and your heart content. Life is demanding and there is always more that could be and should be done. But the most simple things….that only require us to pause, are often times the most satisfying. Let’s remember that this weekend.
