california. a p(re)view.

i flew home on saturday evening from a quick work trip to ca.

i was flipping through the photos from the few sessions i did while there.

(smiling the whole time.)

and this one jumped out at me.

my friend.

a beautiful mother.

laughing.

while her adorable girls do their thing.

this picture inspires me as a mom.

to be able to laugh in the midst of everything

is a gift.

when i saw it, i felt it encapsulated everything about my time there:

working with beautiful people.

sunny and cheery.

laughter.

connection.

i'm thankful i could go.

i'm thankful for clients.

i'm thankful for a job that i love.
