As I've been contemplating things and how I want this business to progress, I think I want to do less events* and more portraits. Like family portraits, but also just portrait portraits. Seniors, kids, headshots, theatrical headshots...Also? I want to focus more on families and clients who aren't "normal." Which means the people that are … Continue reading A tiny pivot

Happy New Year
It's taken our house four days to finally settle back into a routine (sort of!). January is thankfully a super light month for photography work and a much needed chance to close up business for the previous year (all that fun administrative stuff). It's also a chance to sit back and rethink what went right … Continue reading Happy New Year
Many New Adventures Afoot…
You guys, I've applied for a muggle job. It's CRAZY. Kind of landed in my lap and started a whole soul searching and job searching push to see if this is really something I can do. Not that I don't think I could, it's more of a logistical thing as a working mom. Pre-covid if … Continue reading Many New Adventures Afoot…
April!!
Apparently I'm really good at monthly posts. Hm. No problem there. I have been thinking this month about what kind of photography I do more of. I have plenty of families, which I love, don't get me wrong there! And a fair amount of headshots which are fun in that I can work on my … Continue reading April!!
MARCH. Whaaa?
These were not supposed to be monthly blog posts but here we are. Time is marching on in 2023 and I'm still blaming it on losing the productive end of our winter break thanks to the Southwest snafu. Winter is over and we didn't get any snow (I have one HS senior client who is … Continue reading MARCH. Whaaa?
Feb-RU-ary
It's a new year! Lots to juggle in the every evolving life of a work at home small business owner and parent.
A few thoughts…
I haven't really cared too much about my web search presence - I prefer to pick up my clients by word of mouth but holy crap, my google analytics POPPED in September! A whole 52 new searches ended up at my site! I got a handful of folks to fill out my interest form which … Continue reading A few thoughts…
Well, Hello!
If you're seeing this, chances are you're snooping around my sparkly new-ish website via my email blast that went out this afternoon. Hi! There's been some changes this year so far. For starters, I'm doing all my invoicing via square. SO much easier to keep up with than my multi-paged color-coded spreadsheets. You can still … Continue reading Well, Hello!
What? It’s the end of May already? Scratch that, IT’S JUNE.
i'm still here. more pics to post. more pics to edit. i had covid 3ish weeks ago (thankfully no worse than a bad cold, and we all had it, and my 36 hours of miserableness was the worst of anyone in the house) but i'm finding i tucker out easily, especially in the recent heat … Continue reading What? It’s the end of May already? Scratch that, IT’S JUNE.
What? It’s the end of March already??
I swear I'm still here. Deep in Mitzvah season and getting into school and senior photos soon too, plus spring, and 5th grade yearbook creation, theatre rehersal carpooling, still unemployed husband and all the fun that comes with switching your health insurance from regular insurance to medicaid and trying to get two of your favorite … Continue reading What? It’s the end of March already??
