A New Beginning

You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.
- C. S. Lewis

Every one of us needs new beginnings.  Sometimes it's just the promise of a new day with a fresh start...and new mercies.  Other times we find ourselves with new and unexpected difficulties and with that comes opportunity to grow and deepen and find fresh paths that we never would have seen otherwise. 

I'm not quite sure how I even ended up here...starting a blog, scheduling photo shoots, being a "photographer"...but nevertheless, here I am and loving the journey.  I didn't set out to start a business, I just wanted to get a new camera and do what makes joy surge through my blood.  To say my life of late has been similar to riding down white water rapids without a life jacket is an understatement.  But while sometimes I find myself feeling like I'm going under and gasping for air, the current has also led me to a place of new and breathtaking scenery and sometimes it is moving me so fast, I wonder how I'll take it all in!!!

I guess I know how easy it is to let life pass by, to miss the moments or just not be fully IN the moment and taking pictures for me is like, well, refusing to let the moment go unnoticed.  It's a way that I can help tell the story, whether it's mine or yours, in a beautiful and timeless way and capture it so that your memory is renewed each time you see the photo and your joy of that moment, event or season remains.

So, thank you for coming along with me.  I look forward to every opportunity to share in your journey and to make it more memorable.

With great expectations,

~ Andrea

P.S.  Here are a few moments I didn't want to let pass of the little joy in my life.  Enjoy!  And please contact me soon to book a photo shoot for June, July or August before all my slots are filled and the beauty of summer passes.

Just out enjoying SUNSHINE!

 

What are little boys made of?

Frogs and snails

And puppy-dogs' tails,

That's what little boys are made of.



There's nothing like a true cowboy adventure.  I know he's one of the good guys!  :)

We walked across our friend's farm, on a mission to find the spot that holds our sweet dog of 18 years.  Boy do we miss her!



and I love that my son wanted to pick flowers to bring to her

More to come very soon!!!
