Lately

Recently the life has been quite hectic for my family. We prepared for the biggest trip of the year for weeks and then it was cancelled in the last minute. Now we were supposed to be somewhere by the Aegean Sea laying on the beach and relaxing… Such a disappointment! It took a week for me to digest that the plan is all ruined and we’re staying… Ughhh…

But the good part is it’s already the fall season and the weather is cooling down in Bakersfield. At least a little bit! Plus, the holidays are so close! Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas have already started to make me  feel excited! Pumpkins, fall leaves, and the colors of orange, brown and yellow are everywhere.  I’m just so ready for my Fall Mini Sessions, Halloween Mini Sessions (will announce that soon) and the community harvest parties! That’s the best season to get out, socialize, and exchange treats!

This year my daughter is going to preschool 5 days of the week. She is so excited about her new school and new friends. I’m so glad that she is having fun and learning at the same time! Now that she is at school during the weekdays, I have plenty of time to focus on my photography and business life. I’m more organized and prepared than ever. So, looking forward to meeting my new clients and growing my business.  If you haven’t booked your fall session yet, you can always call me or send me an email. Looking forward to hearing from you guys ;)

I’ve always been a hard worker, but running my own business has shown me what that looks like in the little moments.😊#smallbusinessowner
