I wear a lot of hats:

Business woman, photographer, educator, wife and mama (which is twenty hats rolled into one!).

After the birth of my first child, I knew I needed to purchase a professional camera to take the images I wanted, let alone really start my photography career. But funds were tight and, well, cameras aren’t cheap.

I sold my engagement ring to purchase the camera. 

Yep, you read that right. And my husband and I have never for a second regretted the decision. I knew if I wanted a life and career I loved, I had to pursue it wholeheartedly.

Oh and don’t worry, I still adore wearing my wedding band.
