What a spectacular year 2012 was!

So full of adventure and fun!

I got to meet so many amazing families and I am truly grateful for every single session!

I was able to shoot professionally in 5 different states,

and travel with my own family to 7 states-

And If you know me well, you know that I love travel, I love taking pictures,

and I love meeting new people, and experiencing new things,

so this was a great year to say the least.

~Now~

please get comfy and cozy and join me in viewing {just some of} my favs of 2012!

There are A LOT but I hope to stick with me for the ride!

And I’d love to hear what your favorite is in the comments below!

 

Whew! Are you still with me?

If you are, then I applaud you!

And do you know this was a trimmed down version???

I am not kidding! I have the hardest time picking my favs for the year.

*****

I just want to say thank you again for being here on this journey with me, in photography and in life.

As you may, or may not know, we did a pretty crazy move from one side of the country to the other From CA to RI.

We have been here a little over 1 year now.

It was really, really scary to leave our comfort zone, but when that door closed, a million more opened.

I am so grateful for the courage that we had as a family to make that leap of faith,

and embrace adventure and so much more.

*****

If you have a goal or something you are thinking of doing, I urge you to step out of your comfort zone and try it!

Life is just too darn short not to!

Some of my crazy goals this year involve making a fool out of myself:

learning to snowboard, taking salsa dance lessons, and learning to play guitar.

I am hoping to also make more time to post on here and therefore share

some of my learning {possibly humiliating} stories with you along the way.

In the meantime, I wish you the very best that 2013 has to offer!

Please feel free to share your 2013 goals in the comments!
