Over the past 12 months I have poured my heart and soul into three things. My marriage, our first born son, and my business.
When you are married with no children, it can be hard to imagine loving another human being as much, if not more than you do your partner. This was me. I couldn't imagine or understand how I would come to give my heart to the baby I was soon going to meet. Here we are, ten months after the arrival of our son Blair, and I cannot remember or imagine never loving him. It is like I have always loved him, as he has always loved me. A bond never to be broken.
As I sit here reflecting over the year that has just been, I come to realise these past 12 months have been 12 of the most exhausting yet rewarding months of my life. 2013 saw the birth of our first son, Blair, and my love for photography step up to something I am now proud of.
When I began my photography journey almost 2.5 years ago, it was the excitement of freezing that moment in time to treasure for years to come that made me fall in love with what I did. Now my focus has grown, I still love capturing those precious moments for my clients to treasure, but now I want to do more. Now I want to give each and every one of my clients a gift. A gift that every woman deserves but not every woman has. This gift is for each woman no matter what age, size, ethnicity, or flaws they believe they have, to be given the ability to see their own beauty.
This new focus yeas lead me to open Allie South Photography's first studio. I am lucky to have a wonderful husband and family who are there to support me in this huge adventure. What better way to kick start 2014 than to help make woman look and feel beautiful. I cannot wait to share what lies on the journey ahead.
