So over the past year and a half since graduation, I have definitely been through a whirlwind. All of 2014 was spent planning a beautiful beach wedding in what is my favorite place, the outerbanks of NC. There is something so relaxing about the sand dunes and crashing ocean sounds that I knew we had to be married here. We had some struggles getting there but in the end the wedding was amazing, the food from Currituck BBQ was so good (I will never forget that crab mac and cheese), friends and family from all over the country came to celebrate and as time passes the hiccups are becoming just fleeting memories.

This year has been very difficult, not for Steve and I we are great; but things haven't exactly gone as planned. We ended up buying a house we both fell in love with a couple months earlier than planned so getting the other house ready for sale was more difficult than we had planned. We also fell in to another property that we are repairing and trying to sell as well. So in an instant we went from 1 mortgage to 3, needless to say its been a challenge for sure.

Then on top of all of it, we have lost our poor Waylon a beagle of 9 years old that has been struggling with health issues the past few years. He was like a child to us so describing the loss is almost impossible and we are trying to cope while helping our other dog Goliath through the loss as well.

Needless to say since graduation in January of 2014, I haven't been as active in my photography as I would have liked.  I hope to change that throughout the rest of this year and I will be working to update my blog more regularly as well as my website with print options available as well.

So, here's to finishing 2015 better than it has started.
