I would like to start this off by saying, wow. I have no clue whatsoever where I begin or how I start a post like this. As my last few days of summer quickly slipped away, something major for me happened. After months of saving, praying, and looking, I bought my second camera. (NIKON D700 ANYONE?!) the word, ‘happy’ cannot describe my feelings enough and my heart could not be more glad. Another milestone reached, another dream come true, and another reason to give thanks. I took my camera for a spin, and so far, I’m liking what I’m seeing.

To those who have followed me on my journey, thank you thank you thank you. Every like, every comment, and every view is so humbling, and I feel honored that 1 or 300 people see and like a photo. To those who doubted and questioned and spurred me on, thank you for showing me that I really wanted this…That this crazy idea and dream I had was something that could be accomplished. Thank you all for cheering me on so loudly as I walk this path and for high-fiving me when I reach a milestone. My fourteen year-old self who hoped to one day have a camera waiting on her doorstep..she would be real amped if she knew that this was what was to come.
