“Find something you love to do and you will never work a day in your life.”  I’ve heard this since I was young but I feel like I didn’t discover it for myself until photography.  Summer and fall have been a crazy whirlwind of incredible weddings and engagements and I have loved every minute of it!

This weekend I had my first weekend off since June 1st.  (Okay, technically I photographed a sunrise engagement session Saturday morning…but from 10am on Saturday to midnight on Sunday I was officially off!)  I had forgotten how nice it is to do the little things like rake leaves with my husband Matt, rent a funny movie on demand, make breakfast before church, and walk through the mall looking for shoes.  Matt and I even had the opportunity to play tennis on Sunday afternoon!  I kicked his butt by the way. 🙂  As much as I love photography, it was so nice and refreshing to have a few days to focus on the other things I love too.  I am feeling so thankful for this weekend.
