We are celebrating 8 years of being in business!
We are also announcing our retirement!
This business brought us friendships, laughter, joy, hardship, tears, growth, self-reflection, and so much more. Eight years ago we decided to turn our hobby into a side hustle so that we could spend more time together. It morphed into an unbelievable experience of working together as a husband and wife team.
We have had the opportunity to encourage couples on their wedding days, to swoon over the baby with first-time parents, to waving goodbye to the outgoing Senior.
Our hearts are so full from the relationships we have made over the past 8 years. Because of the lessons that we have learned through photography and videography, a new career path was etched for me (Chelsea).
Last August, I embarked on another Master's program in School Counseling and eventually LPC. It has been the most rewarding and eye-opening experience. You see, photography prepared me for this new journey. It taught me a few things:
To be compassionate in the chaos.
To see things from another person's perspective.
To walk in the room with confidence (whether I actually knew what I was doing or not is beside the point!)
To be flexible in the schedule and circumstances.
To listen to the heart of someone else was more valuable than speaking.
Counseling is my calling.
As I near the end of my coursework to finish my practicum and internship, we have decided to put down our cameras.
To our brides that are under contract, DON'T worry! We will finish what we started. Together.
I currently work full-time as a school counselor already (answer to prayer for sure) and complete school work on weeknights and weekends. There just isn't enough time in the day to continue with our business.
We thank you for your support over the years. Your words of encouragement have meant so much to us. We hope that we showed the love of Jesus everywhere that we went.
Thank you for 8 great years.
