Just my little input!

So we always hear everyone talk about how at the beginning of their business they wish they wouldn't have lost their selves in all of their work. We hear how they missed out on things with their families and wish they had the systems they have in place now back than. I took a step back and really thought, well what if I get the system in place now with a tinier work load but bigger sessions. Yes, that may sound so confusing and some of you may be saying that doesn't make any sense at all Nicole come on now, but honestly it does. Think about it! If you give priority to the bigger sessions now and take time to step back and come up with a editing proces, a posting schedule and a blogging schedule how much easier would it be once you're booking almost a year in advance? By than you'll have figured out how to balance work and family and have an amazing trustworthy system in place. 

I don't want to be the person who is always stuck behind my laptop or camera while life is passing me by. I am beyond blessed with being able to be a stay at home mother and that is my full time job and I couldn't be more fulfilled. I have figured out how to balance work and my children and husband. I haven't missed a moment with them and now with this system I've came up with for myself I don't have to be afraid that I'm going to get overwhelmed with work or behind on anything! 

I've decided I want to take on more mentoring sessions but in those sessions I want to teach students and mothers how to balance and not get stuck behind their computer! I want to show people that they can be successful with their business and still live their lives! I have a long term plan of aventually starting a course to help new photographers and creatives learn how to manage life and work and still be successful and booking their ideal clients! 

Sorry for the cellphone quality images but what better way to prove that I'm present in my everyday life than not always having picture perfect images. I capture so many perfect memories on my phone and sometimes love them more than anything I can capture on my camera!
