2015

It has been quite the year. 

A year ago, I was in Hawaii with my family, friends, boyfriend, and babies. My life had been relatively the same for 3 years and I knew that I needed change. 

2015 was the year I finally took a leap of faith. The year I went running towards my dreams of moving across the country. 

It was the year I packed my life in to 3 suitcases; a decision that has been one of the hardest, yet it was something that was needed. It's been a year filled with consistently pursuing my dreams as well as trying to figuring out who I am, and what I want in life. 

So here I am. In New York City, with an apartment, well paid job, and a city that satisfies my photography needs. I got everything I wanted, and yet there are some things I miss so much that it hurts. 

2016 will be huge in defining my life and where it's headed. It's hard to set resolutions this year, when I don't necessarily know what I want. All I know is that I want to be at peace with my decisions, to go on adventures, to not just live, but to be alive, and to be happy regardless of what it looks like to others. 

It's Christmas Eve

 ...and 72 degrees in NYC. Since moving here, I've been looking forward to the holidays. I thought it'd be more "Christmasy" (is that a thing?) Maybe it's the weather. Truth be told, I just haven't had time, time to enjoy it, time to get in to the Christmas spirit. 

Today I met up with a follower of mine who's in town from Chicago to grab coffee, and it was nice to finally be able to slow down. I think it's a necessity to do that every once in while. With how busy I've been, and how busy everyone in New York is, it can be easy to over look the simple things. 

So here's to slowing down and enjoying the small moments in life. 

I hope everyone has an amazing holiday!

Here we go

I guess it's been a long time coming and yet I don't know quite where to start. 

Between two jobs, traveling home for a few weeks and my now 50-60 hour work weeks I've finally published my website. Yay!

Of course it's a work in progress as is everything else. I've included a blog section not necessarily to be a "blogger" but in hopes to give my work little more substance and background.

 I'm looking forward to sharing more about myself as well.
