My Family 📸.

Try being married to me. All jokes aside being married to a photographer is not easy. My mind is going in 1001 directions on all the things I want to do. My husband is one of my biggest supporters. He may complain and may say I need to slow down but at the end of the day he goes with the flow. He is my number one model when I need to get that perfect lighting down or try something new. When he walked into my life at that right moment I knew he would be the forever. Since we started dating we have never gave up. Life has tossed us so much BS in short 5 years that most don't get in a lifetime. This past year may have been the hardest with our fertility journey but we won't let this stop us. 

The Future of the Handy Family.

When we found out in October 2021 the future of Handy Family 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦📸 was going to be it was not easy. It changed me. It changed my outlook on life and most of all it really showed that life is short and you never know when the last day could be  I have to learn to love myself again in a different way. When most kids grow up they know what they want to be. Doctor, vet tech, photographer & much more. however my dream was always to be a mom. Something I never thought I couldn't be on my own. Going thru all the crazy changes I have learned that I could be the best mom I could be to any child that comes my way. I would and know I could love them just the same. 2022 has a different look for us but knowing we aren't going to let this thing called struggles rip us apart we can't wait to give everything we have to a foster/adoption child. 
Its okay to ask us when we are having kids. its okay to say when will you guys be parents. We just dont know when that time will come for us. When it does we will do the best job we can do.
