Mother’s Day! ~ Palm Desert Photographer

Wow what a busy week!  Between the launch of my new site (which is now up, even though the mobile site has some kinks), caring for the kiddos, business meetings, a mixer, and helping family move, my week could not have been crazier.  I am looking forward to a quieter week this week. 🙂  Yeah yeah I know with 3 boys and a business I may be dreaming.  But oh what a good dream.

As for today, the one day where mom’s are treated like a queen (or at least should be), it was a nice day!  I woke up to breakfast in bed courtesy of Sam and Tristan, opened their beautiful homemade gifts, Braydon slept in, I set out to make cannoli for the 1st time (it almost took me down, but I came out on top), watched a movie with my sister, step mom, and boys, went to dinner at my grandmas, ate the yummy cannoli, and now here I sit typing my blog.  It was nice to spend time with family and really just let everything else go.  Of course tomorrow I will have to clean what I did not today.  It was worth it!

Happy Mother’s Day to every mother!  I hope everyone had an amazing day!  What a blessing it is to be a mom.

~ Ann

BEHIND THE LENS

ABOUT Ann

My path here wasn't exactly straight, and I think that's what makes it worth telling.

I wasn't supposed to be a photographer. I was supposed to become a doctor. Neurobiology premed, on track, until my oldest son was diagnosed with epilepsy and life took a hard U-turn. I took a break and enrolled in photography classes I had always wanted to take but never could as a premed. On day two I knew. This was where I was supposed to be. Funny thing is, that analytical, detail-oriented part of me never left. It just shows up differently now, in the way I plan every session, read the light, and pay attention to the moments most people miss. I finished my degree in a year and a half, started my business the following October, and sixteen years later I still believe this is the gift God gave me to give to others. And I don't take that lightly.
