This year has been the most rewarding, difficult, amazing, life changing year for me.
Personally, I’ve raised a tiny wrinkled baby into a sweet little boy. Jesse and I have faced and defeated many obstacles together and I’m so very proud to wear the Mom badge with honor. My family decided to pick up our simple life on the beach to rejoin the busy, constantly changing city where we were raised. It’s been a very time consuming and challenging move, but we will only be making more progress taking deep roots and building a firm foundation for life together as a family.
And then there’s professionally. One late night in January, as we were first humouring the idea of moving, we were planning out what we would do once we moved. With help of my very supportive husband, I decided to take something that I loved and turn it into something I could be. Instead of picking up books in the store and sighing over those gorgeous squishy newborn photos, I was capturing them myself! This year, emiB Photography went from an idea and a dream to full blown reality.
As much progress as I’ve made this year, I’m just getting started. I have a dream of reaching the top of a mountain and I’ve only just packed my bags. I stand at the bottom looking up, not sure where to take my next step, my eyes always at the peak.

I can’t wait to see what this year will bring, because I know where this past year has brought me, and I like the view.

I want to thank every single person who has supported and encouraged me. I truly love to say that I love what I do. As a mother and a photographer I am excited to wake up everyday to new and exciting things.

This year, I firmly decide to make the conscious decision every day to be physically, emotionally and spiritually healthy and to never stop trying to be amazing.

Thank you for a wonderful year. Let this new year kick some serious butt.
