A New Year!

Eric and I have just returned home from a week and a half away on vacation. I may post up a few pictures on the blog a little later. I am SO thankful that my dear parents were able and willing to care for the kids so that we could get away and enjoy this opportunity! I feel truly refreshed and rested. What a gift!!

After I get reacquainted with my sweet kids and start processing the first few loads of laundry, I will be starting to go through emails and messages. Not having had access to phone or email while gone, this might take me a few days. (!) If you have contacted me during the last week and a half with something and do not hear back from me by the middle of next week, please email or call again if you don't mind. There are also some things I have been working on before the trip, such as album designs and a few orders, that I will be finishing up now that I am back.

In some ways I feel that after having returned from this trip, this is really the start of my New Year. It is my earnest prayer that 2009 is a year of growing closer to my Savior Jesus Christ. As well, I pray for greater love for, and more faithful service to those I am blessed to be around. I am so excited for all the weddings and other important moments I will be photographing this year! On that note, I have decided to decrease my work load in the next few months. My youngest child has two months of part time Kindergarten left, and will start going to school 5 days a week after that. I want to soak in and enjoy these last days at home with her as much as possible!

Regarding weddings, I have filled all my summer openings. If you have a fall or winter wedding this year, I do still have dates available. Regarding high school Seniors, I only had a very limited amount of time slots available for summer '09 and all slots have been filled, so I won't be taking any more Senior Portrait commissions. If you have been in contact with me concerning your senior portraits, let's get your session time scheduled soon! Can't wait! :-)

I thank you for your interest in my photography. I am truly fortunate to work for the wonderful people that I do.

I pray your 2009 will be filled with joy and many blessings....

Vanessa
