The year 2018 was a beautiful year both professionally and personally. I met the most amazing couples, families and human beings and truly adore each of them and their unique stories. Jess and I went through a few big milestones ourselves including love, loss and new joys. Thank you all so much for an unforgettable year. My goal for 2019 is to remember to count our blessings and to take more time to pause because a year goes by so fast. Taking photos professionally sometimes has me neglecting to take personal photos so another goal is to take more photos- even if they are crappy ones-because life is fleeting and the memories are what we have to remember it by.
