Kimberly's Maternity Session


I had the pleasure of shooting Kimberly's maternity session several weeks ago. She is expecting a beautiful baby girl named Brooklynn this month and if everything works out well I'll be documenting the birth. I am really looking forward to that middle of the night call because this will be a first time experience for me. You guys are going to be wonderful parents and I can't wait to take Brooklynn's new born pictures.

The day finally came...

So it happened at last - I was laid off from Sovereign Rehab on Thursday. It has been pretty devastating to me because I have worked with these people for 13 years and I considered most of them my family. In fact most of them attended my wedding last January, but I was blinded apparently because the laid me off in a parking deck and they didn't even act as if they cared. People I knew for years didn't even call - almost as if they were ashamed and they should be. I felt so betrayed and unwanted that I can't even begin to describe the whirl wind of emotions that I am feeling. I'm trying very hard not to be bitter, but its really hard when this went down the way it did. I can't even get answers to questions about my pay because they simply won't answer them. Its hard to plan life when you don't even know what will be on your next pay check. Broken promises and broken dreams. I've learned that you can never trust someone else with your security other than yourself. Never trust anyone even if you think you know who they are.

The upside? I'm praising God in the storm. I know that he has a perfect plan and I know that he removed me from that place for a reason. I don't know what all the answers are, but I know that He will reveal them to me in His perfect time. I know that I have comfort in the palm of His hand and that He is holding my every tear. I'm pushing forward. I'm going to try and push my business forward and pray that it prospers or leads me to the place that I am meant to be.

So if you know anyone in need of a good photographer please send them my way. I need the business and I'll cut them a GREAT deal!
