Goals for 2014

2013 was a great year and full of learning experiences. There were many firsts in the business, which I am thankful for. I took pictures of my first newborn, shot my first wedding and bridal portraits, and shot my first animal session. My growth from the beginning of this career until now is amazing to me. One day I will show you examples of how my style has changed and explain how I got where I am today. At the beginning of 2013, I set goals for myself and for my business. I never in a million year thought I would reach them, much less far surpass even what I thought was possible. I am so thankful for the clients in 2013 that made this journey possible. I cherish each and every one of you.

For 2014, I have set goals for myself both career wise as well as personally. Some people do not believe in resolutions, and that is fine. To each his own. I have to set goals for myself to keep everything on track. My planner rarely leaves me. When I clean house (let's not talk about that right now), I have a timeline of how long I have in each room. I go bonkers when I am not organized. Just the way I tick. So, I will share a few (not all) of my goals with you for 2014 both personally and photography wise.

• Ride 1000 miles on my road bike.
• Purchase a 5D Mark 3 camera.
• Purchase a new lens (unsure of which one yet).
• Get published.
• Blog more.
• Start each Monday with a clean sink and all clothes on a hanger and in the closet.

I would love to hear your goals for this year! We can do it!
