A New Profession

I feel like I’ve been neglecting this place, and I don’t mean to. Life has just been “getting in the way” as they say. But lately it seems as though it’s only because I’ve been focusing my attention more on my photography “business”. It seems to becoming more and more real as the days go on, and I have to say… I’m super excited.
So, I decided to take a break from the 30 Days of Truth project to share with you my first paid photography gig. Someone I went to school with contacted me on Facebook recently and asked me to do her and her fiance’s engagement photos. So, today I packed up my gear and headed over to Savin Rock in West Haven and did what I love to do most: capture the moment.
Here are some of my favorites from the day… You can check the entire shoot over here. I can’t tell you how excited I am to hear what they think of them. And when they handed me a check for doing something that I would kill to do on an every day basis… It just. Hit me. This is really something people want me to do. This is something I could realistically do for a living - at least part time.
And it made me so, so happy.
