I am announcing my new logo and a new updated website. Yay, I am so excited! I really wanted something very simple and well, something that was very much me. 🙂 I have always loved handwritten logos and I have always loved butterflies. Butterflies have always been a special thing in my family, my grandmother loved them. I was extremely close to my grandmother and when she passed away, my sister and I talked about how it seemed like we seen so many butterflies that first year she was gone. I personally felt that is was God’s way of sending me some comfort and just a little hi from grandma. I believe God comforts us in many ways and for me when I was seeing so many butterflies after my grandma passed, I felt peace. When I was first coming up with logo I had no doubt it had to have a butterfly in it. So the butterfly is hand drawn and attached to my name. The drawing was done by my 9 year old daughter Maretta, who was named after my grandmother. I am so excited to have a part of my child’s creativity in my logo. So I gave my thoughts and ideas to my amazing friend and graphic designer Veronica Louchart and she made it happen.
I also wanted to update my website, as I feel I have grown and changed in my photography journey. I feel and have always felt this journey for me has had its ups and downs, but I have always felt 100% this is where God wants me and I am happy to oblige. I love it so much and it is worth it. He has placed amazing opportunities in my life to help me to grow and one of those was working with the amazing talented Jean Smith Photography. I took her and her husbands He Said She Said workshop about 4 years ago, which was amazing, they simplified everything for me and I was so beyond inspired. About a year later, I started assisting her at weddings and now I second shooting weddings with her. It has been an awesome 3 years shooting with Jean and I feel so blessed to work with such amazing talent, that has taught me so much! I have now added weddings to my website and soon to come will actually be a separate wedding website, that is still in the works. So I hope you check back.
I hope everyone loves the new website and logo as much as I do. To introduce the logo, here is a photo of my daughter resting in the cool summer grass as the sun goes down.
Lovely!
