“A believer, you better believe.”

Three years ago today, I wrote these very words -
“Joy, yes. Gratitude, absolutely. Inspired, beyond belief. A believer, you better believe. Here I am, coming off of two wedding weekends. Filled with that of documenting such vibrantly unique love. Sprinkled with moments with friends, kisses with my amazingly supportive husband, bridal shows, family shoots. Exhausted, a bit. On the verge of tears, with that of happiness, most definitely. The week has just begun and I am already bursting with so much humble gratitude and all around excitement. We leave Thursday for a road trip along the California coast celebrating Daniel Sean Smith's birthday - that of Big Sur, Benicia, San Fan, Santa Cruz and wine tasting in Napa of course! I then excitedly adventure to Santa Barbara for a destination wedding! Come home for a couple days to prepare for shooting a conference in Texas and a mastermind group in Hawaii!! Oh my!! I leave yoga today to experience emails of gratitude from my clients of which fill my heart even more. Then, come home to the most amazingly cooked dinner. All this, the humble culmination of asking myself one day, "Am I living or just existing?" I am most definitely living. I share this, as it is truly so important to live life though conscious lenses, continually share ones intentions, learn from mistakes, honor growth and remain humbly inspired! Cheers to a beautiful week and manifesting your dreams!!”

For them, I am truly grateful as the reality of today, feels so very different.
Thank you to my past self for knowing what my present self would need, exactly what I would need. This. This is the inspiration I truly needed.
Sending such massive, safe hugs to all of you.
​This, this is the reminder to be the believer.
