Our day started out with some group time, talking and chatting it up with the other photographers who were attending the workshop. Getting to learn more about these women was a wonderful time. I loved hearing about their photography journeys and I loved sharing mine with them as well. It was also super fun trying to all squeeze into our AirB&B. Candice and I stayed at this perfect little house at the end of the main street in Boulder. It had the PERFECT bath tub and two cute bedrooms.

Last year, I had the opportunity to attend The Blissful Maven's photography workshop in Boulder, Colorado. While I don't live in Boulder, I LOVED my time there and would happily travel back there for more sessions. Over the years of our friendship, I've always considered Candice a mentor to me.

In the middle of December, I became a Joshua Tree Family Photographer. Before making our 2 1/2 hour drive to our new home, I finished one last session. The Means had hired me originally to be their birth photographer for Miss Isla Jane's arrival back in May. You can see that story here: Baby Isla. This time, they wanted me to take full family photos. They hadn't had family photos in forever and I was offering some Limited Edition session slots for the holidays! I'm so glad I got to photograph this family before we made our move to the Joshua Tree area.
