This is a scary post to write. In 2015, my husband and I had a baby, switched careers, and moved at the same time. My photography took a backseat to the new changes we'd made. And even though I have taken on a few new clients in that time, the distance between my last Facebook post and my most recent shoot became embarrassingly big.
Realistically, I can't put the time into creating a "brand" the way I used to, back when I was Bearfoot Photography. My whole life revolves around my faith and my family increasingly, even though I didn't think that was possible. Thanks to Covid, I've added "grade school from home" to the list of responsibilities that typically take up all my minutes, and the idea of adding anything else seems a little overwhelming.
But it occurred to me that this is the perfect opportunity to acknowledge the fact that I haven't posted in 5 whole years. I don't have the time to write the cutesy posts that mom-photography is so known for. I don't have the time to really hone the advertising side of my business. If I do anything at all, it needs to be quality.
I have time for shooting and editing photos of a few, wonderful families. I have time for a few of the moms like me who can't afford boutique photographers, but would like a more personal touch than department store backdrop sessions can offer. I have time to pursue my passion- which is creating beautiful, affordable images of families.
Thanks for being patient with me as I work this out. I look forward to being in contact with many of you again.
