"Don't cry over the past, it's gone. Don't stress about the future, it hasn't arrived. Live in the present and make it beautiful." Putting this here as a gentle reminder for myself. Double tap if you needed to hear this too.

Finishing up my #jkinstachallenge Day 5! Patience. I'm learning A LOT about patience while I build my business. As a photographer, our business is so visual! We are lucky to share our art through platforms like social media and the worldwide web. I have my list of favorite photogs, and I drool over their work and think, "They're always on a cool vacation and shooting amazing things! Their life must be SO perfect!" BUT, those photogs aren't posting all about the unglamorousness of the backend of building their businesses! I'm learning it's not always pretty and at times, it's downright hard work! You have to juggle many things and wear different hats. I can't share too much as of now, BUT I've been hard at work, behind the scenes, with the amazing @cream She's helped me take a deeper look at business and brand. The website is going through its own little rejuvenation and I can't wait to share when the time comes! Till then, I hope you have a fabulous Friday and plan to soak up the long weekend! I plan to work in my garden while the ladies roam 🐓🐓🐓 What are your plans?! . . . . . . . . #shuttergoesclick #SGCwedding #SGCphotography #wedinNC #NCbride #DurhamNC #trianglephotographer #nikon #communityovercompetition #naturallightphotographer #northcarolina #durhamweddingphotographer #northcarolinaphotographer #weddingday #ncphotographer #TPLinsiders #chapelhillweddingphotographer #raleighweddingphotographer #chapelhillnc #NCtriangle #Durham #Raleigh #ChapelHill #risingtidesociety (at East Durham, Durham)

"A flower does not think of competing to the flower next to it. It just blooms." -- Zen Shin⠀ ⠀ Do you think spring is here to stay here in North Carolina?! While I do not long for the super sweaty bang weather around the corner OR all the evil mosquitos that find me despite my efforts, I am looking forward to more time outside with the girls 🐓🐓🐓 and working in my yard! ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ Maybe one day I'll have that large plot of lavender and other various blooms. Let's be real, can you harvest beautiful flowers like these without smiling?! The answer is "heck no!" Can you imagine harvesting lavender? Would you just be drunk with calmness and peace!?

Woke up Sunday morning to a winter wonderland!

I pretty bummed that the @foreverbridalnc expo this weekend was cancelled but I know it's for the best as the safety of the brides and vendors is of the upmost importance! So much preparation went in this past week to be ready. Today I'll pack all the booth decor back up in the attic and shed, but before I do, I think I'll crawl back under the covers and open this book! Thanks to @charliebryant13 for the loaner 💛 (and suggestion by @savvy410) sure it will bring much inspiration and advice to this gal still in her flannel and long johns😆 I hope everyone stays warm and safe over the next few snow days! I can't wait to see all your winter wonderland pics! ❄️ . . . . . . . . #stateofemergeNC #snowday #northcarolina #ncweddingphotographer #shuttergoesclick #inthecompanyofwomen #inspiration #theinstagramlab #risingtidesociety #thatsdarling #northcarolinaweddingphotographer #shuttergoesclick #TPLinsiders #northcarolinabride #communityovercompetition #petitejoys #jennakutchercourse #thephotolab #wedinNC #thatsloverly #NC #ncwedding #galpals #tilinsiders #theeverygirl (at East Durham, Durham)

"Food is also about pleasure, about community, about family and spirituality, about our relationship to the natural world, and about expressing our identity. As long as humans have been taking meals together, eating has been as much about culture as it has been about biology." - Michael Pollan ⠀ ⠀ The act of coming together at the table is one of the most beautiful things. Sharing food, community, and love; there's noting like it! 💛 ⠀ flower farmer + florist: @sassafrasforkfarm planner + designer: @amandablair_bydesign stationary: @onefinemorningnc .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #eattogether #community #foodiscommunity #risingtidesociety #thatsdarling #raleighwedding #northcarolinaweddingphotographer #shuttergoesclick #TPLinsiders #northcarolinabride #communityovercompetition #chasinglight #petitejoys #marriedinNC #NCweddingvenue #NCspringwedding #springwedding #thephotolab #ncweddingphotographer #wedinNC #thatsloverly #NC #ncwedding #farmwedding #localflowers #NCfarm #KeepItLocal #supperclub
