On Bad Days…

e-mails like the one I received yesterday mean so much. Yesterday I was having one of those days where nothing was going as planned. I was rethinking all of my decisions and wondering if photography was exactly what I should be doing at this moment. Then, I received an email from a bride whose photos I had just sent the day prior. It said

Hi Shannon,

Thank you so much, you did a beautiful job with the photos. I was saying to my mom that you were so unobtrusive, but whenever I would
think “oh, that would be a good picture,” I’d see you out of the corner of my eye, already there taking the photo. I especially love some of the (in)formal individual portraits you took. And looking at the pictures of us during the ceremony, those photos really capture how I felt in those moments.

Again, thank you, I am so glad that you were our photographer. I wish you all the best in your photography business. With all your talent I have no doubt it will continue to grow and flourish.

These e-mails mean the world to me. It was an instant reminder of why this is exactly where I am supposed to be, even when it’s not easy. I’ll post some photos from the weddng tomorrow.
