As the holidays end and 2015 starts to show itself I can’t help but look back on how amazing 2014 was. This year I celebrated my 2nd year of marriage, opened a new studio/office and finally got a good basketball team to cheer for! (Go Cavs!). 2014 also brought me a very unique opportunity. The opportunity to document what made our client’s year so amazing! For some it was a walk down the aisle in a wedding dress and for others it was addition of a new little boy or girl to the family. Some people walked out of their high school’s for the last time and others celebrated bar/bat mitzvahs, birthdays, baptisms and countless other moments.

As I sit here trying to think of a way to rank these moments and photos to recap the year I have come to the conclusion that it can’t be done. Each of these moments are unique in their own way making every photo just as important as the next. In no particular order these are some of the more notable moments for me this year.

In sharing these photos I want to thank everyone for making this year so much fun! 2014 honestly couldn’t have been as amazing as it was without each and every one I was lucky enough to work with. I am very excited to meet all the soon to be new clients for 2015 and catch up with some familiar faces along the way!

 

Happy New Years Everyone!
