Franklin, Tennessee Family Photographer | 2021 Family Film Gratitude
Mid 2017, my world was turned on its head when I found family films and had my family filmed for the first time by Courtney Holmes out of Sydney Australia. That year, I dove into films and made small videos during my normal sessions. In 2018 & 2019, I was still learning but was booking a handful of family films a year, but had not learned quite yet how to articulate what I was offering. Then 2020/covid hit which put my business on pause. It took about halfway through 2021 for things to start to shift into a normal pattern and I was off! 2022 is now nearly booked and its only March! So given the long journey, that was wonderful and emotional and slow.... My gratitude has grown tenfold and I had to create this show reel with clips from every film in 2021 to share how grateful I am for the job I have - the soul filling amazing job I have, that I feel truly called to do with my life.
Thank you doesn’t begin to cover the gratitude I have for every single client I had in 2021. I just don’t even have the words to convey. I remember early summer chatting with a friend saying I’d be happy if I had 6 family films by years’ end. It was mid 2021 and things were just picking up steam from the pandemic. I blew far past that number. I also began filming births. What an amazing year. I’m so pumped for my 2022 films (so many are already booked - another dream come true??❤️❤️).
Below are some of my favorite images from 2021. I cannot wait to see what I create in 2022!
