Well hello there! It has been a while-- almost five years to be exact. I'm not going to lie, I burnt myself out again. I didn't want to pick up my camera, touch my computer, be around people, go to events... I didn't want to any of it. Before I knew it, I had graduated college, lost my passion and my creativity and then it was 2020 and there was a pandemic.
I've worked in the pharmacy setting for the past five years, going from a retail setting to a hospital setting. COVID did a number on me- working long hours with little staff, little breaks and little motivation. I started a new position in 2021 where I had a set schedule, weekends off and a little bit of a life again. Fast forward to now, 2023- COVID is still a thing, there are still some very sick people, but I'm craving movement again. I'm craving photography. I'm craving some normalcy again.
While I haven't picked up my camera much, I did just recently take some maternity photos of one of my best friends. I was very very nervous about picking up my camera. I was nervous about not having the eye or touch to get those special photos but looking at them and editing them, I realized that I just picked up where I left off.
It has been such a delight holding my camera again. Feeling the familiar weight of it in my hands. Spending hours in front of my computer editing.
Oh my goodness how much I missed it...
Below are some of my favorite photos from Meagan and Ryan's maternity shoot!
