A New Season

First wedding since last fall.  It was so good to be back.  I love studying people.  Wedding photography is a study in psychology perhaps with a little anthropology in there too.  I am a stranger who is invited in like a long lost friend.  I study the bride and the groom...but mostly the bride.  I watch as they relate to their family and friends and try to bring smiles and a sense of calm as a carefully planned day sometimes doesn't go as planned.  I love what I do.
It's been a busy 2012 thus far...can't wait for more.

Now I get to do it more often.
I will be working as an Administrative Assistant in the church we attend.  This job comes with a more flexible schedule.  I am extremely excited.  I get to put my experience in a school to good use but also enjoy not always having to be "on".  All this being said, I will be able to do photography a little more intentionally.

A wonderful four years as an Assistant Teacher is soon to be just memories and a blurb on a resume.  A new adventure is on the horizon.  As I sit here listening to my Zac Brown Band station on Pandora I am reminded how there are seasons of life...chapters.  I am sad to see a chapter of familiarity closing....but I am ecstatic to venture into new territory, take a deep breath, and see what God has in store for His daughter.
