Wowza.
I just returned from Abbey's Evolving
workshop and it did so much for me. It not only inspired me for my
business but also for my family life. Abbey started the workshop out
saying that the reason we do business is for the people we love. For
me,the people I do it for is my amazing husband and my two adorable
little boys.
She covered so many areas: posing, work
flow, systems, marketing, specializing, family time, time
organization, EVERYTHING.
I am confident that I can make my
business a blessing for my family instead of a burden. One thing she
said is “get your crap together and your business will explode!”
And I honestly, truly believe that. I didn't realize how scattered my
business was until she showed me how put together I can be! I can
make it easier for me, I can make it easier for my clients, I can
make it easier on my family, the list just goes on and on!
I got emotional when she would talk
about her family. I could just tell how much they meant to her. My
family means that much to me, but I'm not showing them how much they
mean to me by putting my business before them multiple times a week.
I was only away from my little boys for two days. That's not very
long, but when I called my little boy Trey to tell him I was coming
home, I just about broke into tears when he said, “Mom, I want you”
in his little two-year-old voice.
He wants me. Of course he meant that we
wanted me in the moment, but it meant so much more to me. He wants me
to play with him. He wants me to teach him his ABC's. He wants me to
go to the park with him. He wants me to be his mom. And I want to
give him all of that! I can give him all of that and the
materialistic things I want to give him by getting my crap together.
I have a two year plan. I will continue
to mold it until I am at a place where I am blissfully happy with
life, business, and family.
Abbey put together a wonderful styled
session. She picked out the most amazing vendors for all the little
details of the night. She had a few of her past brides come and model
and you could tell how good of a relationship they had with her. They
were all beautiful and I had such a good time talking to the other
photographers there and definitely making some lasting connections!
Now I can leave you with some wonderful pictures from that night!
Stay tuned as I am now going to be
making changes in my business to make it an amazing experience for
you!
