2011 Favorites

2011 was a year for learning, growing and lots of firsts.  In the midst of our home renovation, my husband & I decided to embark on a new adventure---starting Paige Meyer Photography.  For me personally, it has been one the most rewarding decisions I have made. Never in my life did I think that in my first 6 months I would be booked solid through the end of the year. God has blessed in more ways than I could have ever asked or imagined. I am so grateful for all my clients who were willing to take a chance on me as I was (am) still learning and growing. I had the privilege of working with so many wonderful clients who reminded me each and every session why I absolutely LOVE what I do!   It gives me so much joy to be able to capture each and every sweet moment and I look forward to many more to come this year.  Enjoy some of my favorites of 2011!

I also want to give a big thank you to my husband who has been the most supportive & encouraging person in my life.  He has moved furniture, set up engagement vignettes, acted like a complete fool to get smile from little ones (see photo below for an example), has given up his dream for a "man cave" so I can have a studio at home, and has put up with some incredibly long hours of editing at the office. He has let me bounce a bajillion business ideas off of him and has listened intently like he actually knows what I am talking about even when he probably has no clue at times. I'm sharing all of this basically to say he deserves a lot of credit --- most of the things he does go without being seen so I just want to thank him for being the wonderful handful of a husband that he is!  Case and point....

As we begin 2012, I am excited to see what God has in store! There are lots of new & exciting things in store for this year and I can't wait to see them play out. My mind in constantly turning and thinking of better ways to serve you. Thank you all again for making it possible for me to pursue my passion and allow me to do what I truly love to do! 

Happy 30th Anniversary!

On Sunday my wonderful parents will celebrate their 30th Anniversary! A few weekends ago I had the pleasure of doing a session with them!  It was an absolute joy to photograph them---they make me so proud! Proud because they look FANTASTIC and so youthful---can you believe they are grandparents?! Proud because even after 30 years they are still giddy, full of laughter & so evidently in love.  Proud because they live to serve and all who know them have been impacted by their walk with the Lord.  So maybe proud is an understatement...either way I can only pray that one day Nathan & I will share the love that they still have after 30 years of marriage. 

The thing I loved about their session was that I really didn't have to do anything but stand by and keep snapping each moment as it came.  Whether that was my Dad's infamous "laugh so hard he cries" or my Mom simply putting up with the goofball he is---either way it was reality!

Yeah...this is that reality thing I was talking about ;)

I told you they are cute!

I know my Mom is going to want to kill me for putting this on here but I just couldn't help it.   Isn't she just adorable?!  I'm pretty sure she is one of the main reasons my husband married me--he saw I had good genes ;)

Reality at its best!

Happy 30th Anniversary! You both are a blessing to all who know you!
