But I can't let you leave without me first thanking some pretty important people who helped make this all possible.
* First - my husband! *
This never would have become what it is without him. He spent many sleepless nights, and long long hours of hard work to make it what it is today. From hanging the artwork, to building the ikea and installing all the shelving. He did the hard stuff to make my vision a reality. I am so grateful, and could not have done it without his help. Love you babe, and thank you so much!
* My parents *
Thank you for constantly listening to me, even when you don't understand exactly what I am saying. Thank you for putting up with me throughout college project after project, and late night after late night. Thank you for fur baby sitting while I travel to conferences, and destination weddings, so I can better myself and the business. Thank you for always being there, and being my number one supporters ever since day one. Even before you thought I could sustainable do photography and pay my bills at the same time. I DID IT!
* My friends Melody, Carl, Megan, Kole, Reese, Ted & Cheryl *
Oh man, if you could only see how much Mel and Carl helped with loading and unloading and transporting everything! Carl even hand made us our amazing coffee bar from scratch! He brought it up one day to surprise me! Melody spent multiple evenings in addition to the big move helping us fold fabrics and put things on the shelves. They are simply awesome! Reese, Ted, Megan, and Kole also joined us for the manual labor day of transporting everything - oh yeah I pack heavy too so some of those boxes really were rough to lug... Also thanks to my girl Cheryl for constantly allowing me to bounce decoration ideas off you, and the little touches. Shes even came up to help beautify things as we enter the final touches days. I would not be here without all of my friends! Your support means the world to me as I chase my dreams. I appreciate all of you.
* My Clients *
I wouldn't be here without you clients trusting in me to capture your precious memories. I truly do mean it every time I say "thank you". Without you, I would not get to live out my passion, and have the chance to pursue my dream. A HUGE thank you to you all.
* And last but definitely not least - YOU!! *
Whoever you are, If you made it through this really long post - you are likely someone who cares about this journey I am on. You are super important to me because not only are you hopefully my future clients, but you help me to stay in business by reading my blogs, telling your friends about me, sharing my posts, and commenting on social media! These things may seem small, but they are a HUGE part of me getting the word out about my business. So THANK YOU for doing these things. You're the best!! Thank you!!
