Birthday Sunrise

Why am I not a morning person? It is SO beautiful at 5 am! And the lighting is so amazing. We got up this morning to watch the sunrise- it's been a tradition that I've had for myself for several years. I watch the new day begin, look back over the last year to evaluate what I've done and how I've grown, and then set goals and think about what I want to do in the coming year. It's also very spiritual- something I would recommend to everyone.
I actually started doing this about 8 years ago- maybe more. I just remember when it was the new millenium- 2000, new years eve, and I had it in my head to watch the new year begin. Then I decided I would like to do that on my birthday as well, so here we are. :)
Anyway, I was sad I didn't bring my camera- I don't think clearly that early, but I need to get in the habit of bringing it with me everywhere I go, I keep missing out on great opportunities...

Welcome!

I just want to let you know how excited I am to finally have my own photography business. I love the art of the camera- mostly because it allows me to share beautiful moments with many types of people. Did you know that "Photography" literally means "to write with light"? When I am photographing I feel like I am writing your story with pictures. Memories bring with them a feeling, and my goal is to capture the feelings of your wedding, your pregnancy, your family, or whatever else you allow me experience for our photo shoot. That way when you look back at these pictures, that rush of emotion can come back to you. You can re-experience those moments that mean so much. That is one of the reasons why the name of my business is "Pearl" Photography, because your life is unique and sometimes the best moments in your life take time to create (like your wedding) thus making them that much more special.
