October Was My Busy Season

Y'all, October was crazy busy, but in a good way. I finally have a system down where I'm not glued to my computer and I'm able to do all the things I want, including family time, fun nights, cooking, and workouts (beachbody is my favorite). It includes waking up at 5am, but to be off in the evening with my kiddos and husband is worth it to me! I kicked my coffee addiction for good now. I never thought I would say it's been eight weeks since I stopped consuming cups of coffee a day. Energize is my go to drink in the morning now!

I added up the other night how many weddings I edited in October, and it was 30! Phew! My average catalogs are 500-1000 images. I always put my images edited on my monthly tracker along with images sent. Here's the official stats: Actual images edited: 16,229 out of 18,105 sent. The images not edited are anchor images sent to me so I know exactly how that photographer wants their photos edited.

October was my busy season. But I checked tonight, and I already have edited 15 weddings in November. So move over, October. November may be busier! ;-)

I had a fun mom's night out the other week out to eat with my good friend (aka partner in crime) and the we joined a group of friends for Painting with a Twist. This was our group that went together. We made up about 1/3 of the class that night! It was fun! I'm the 6ft1in giant in the back row. 😃 These are just mobile pics. :-)




I can't say enough how incredibly thankful I am to be able to do all.the.things. and still be able to be there for my family, take care of my health, cook yummy meals, and work at home. This is crazy and I'm blessed. It's all because of wonderful clients like you!

I only have two full time spots left for 2018, for two wedding photographers who edit in Lightroom, looking for someone to be on their team. Check out my website for more details and send me an email. I'd love to hear from you! :-)

Well Hello Again, Monday!

HELLO MONDAY. I'm actually feeling pretty good this morning! Here's a cute pic of my boys and one of my favorite flowers besides tulips- bluebonnets!!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I started using the Fitbit 3 this weekend to set alarms, track my activity, water intake, & get moving a lot more than just my workouts. Sitting in front of a computer daily: editing, creating content, and all.the.things of behind the scenes during your work day really adds up. Working from home can sometimes be HARDER for me to make time for myself. Because I am my own boss, and have a list of things to do, it seems to grow like the infamous "honey do" list and I try to wear all the hats. 😂😁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This weekend I took time to finish up a mini video tutorial. I also went for a much needed massage and I'm fired up for the week, ready to take this work week in stride! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What's on the agenda for you today or this week? Need some motivation or encouragem...

My Guy is 9 & End of Summer Update!

 I meant to take pictures of my nine year old guy in May y'all! But it happened in July and I'm posting in August. 😊 Life has been a little crazy with busy season, summer, and moving. I edited on average about 30-40 weddings a month and this fall is about to get busier than that! I'm so thankful for my family of photographers. Busy season starts up in just a few weeks. Being a private photo editor means I'm busy when it's busy season for other photographers. But I totally enjoy editing for my photographers. I love to learn and see their styles, methods of shooting, lenses they use, and everything they pour into their business first-hand. It's a sneak peek at the best of the best, and I feel like I'm getting just as much value out of editing as they do! We have enjoyed our summer full of go carts, swimming, playing with friends and family, and enjoying the hot and cold weather to the fullest! Here's a few of a July day this past month. My guy is 9. H...
