On Tuesday, we celebrated. And I’ve just caught my breath from the whirlwind of activity. Opening a photo studio and throwing a grand opening was kind of like having a baby and a wedding all at once. And I am so thankful for all of my clients, friends and family who came out to celebrate!
Over the past few weeks, I’ve been so blessed to see a long-time dream come to life: I’m opening a Cranberry photography studio.
Last Saturday was such a beautiful day to kick off the 2022 wedding season! I was honored to photograph Taylor and Hunter’s wedding at Diamond Lake Barn and Event Center in Scio, Ohio. It’s a lovely venue with lots of gorgeous scenery for photos. We had so much fun, I had trouble narrowing down the photos to share, so I put together a video of highlights. But first, here are some of my favorite photos of the day:
When I walk down my steps to go out of my front door, I pass through a gallery of framed prints lining the walls of my stairs. It’s like walking through a photo album of some of our sweetest moments from the time my boys were babies up through the present day. It’s a gallery that grows with our family, and of course, it features some of my favorite artwork! Our boys enjoy looking at the photos and talking about which portraits are their’s, how old they were, and what was happening at that time.
Last year this time, I was tentatively preparing for a big switch to full service sessions, with an emphasis on creating tangible artwork for my clients and no longer selling digital files. I could see the benefit in serving my clients by providing a complete experience from planning through delivery of artwork. But my timing of making this transition after the shut-down in 2020 required a lot of faith. Was this a good move, or would I hear crickets?!?
