I can’t believe it’s almost 2016 and time for my maternity leave! It has been such a crazy fall and winter with photo shoots. I’m excited for a little break before the chaos of a newborn arriving in our home. While some photographers I know shoot till a week or two before their due date, that’s not the case for me. Shooting sessions as time goes on, especially dogs, has had it’s challenges and I’m ready for a little R&R before the baby arrives.

In January I will still be checking emails and tying up all loose ends from 2015 (blog posts, taxes and the not so fun behind the scenes stuff of owning my own business).

The office will be closed late January though the beginning of May. I will be as attentive to email as I am able to be – just allow a little extra response time.

And the blog post isn’t complete without a photograph. Of course my boys were part of the announcement to friends and family that we were expecting.
