Tuesday was one year to the day since my first blog post on this website. I can't believe how quickly the time has gone. 2018 was an interesting year for my business. I consider it kind of my first year actually pursuing photography. I guess we'll say Happy First Birthday, Sarah Jane Photography! It's a fluid date :) I'd have to say that I didn't make as big of strides as I'd maybe have liked, but I'm battling my personality in even starting a business. There's a lot of scary stuff involved and sometimes I let my fear get the better of me.
The big advancements were not so much in clients or money, but in education. I have learned SO MUCH this year and I've seen my photography grow in leaps and bounds. I've become more confident with light (thanks to Katelyn James' Lighting and Location course!!) and I FINALLY got some pricing in place :) There is still room for growth. I'm sure there always will be. I'm sure that no matter how experienced I get, there will always be some doubt or fear, but I'm learning to push through it. If I want this to go anywhere, I have to push through. I come back from sessions and think, "oh, I should have done that or not done that", but my clients never know and it's a learning experience for me. Hopefully next time, I'll remember that thing I saw and not make the same mistake. But those are just little things that matter to me and no one else will ever see. Thank you to all the families who allowed me to work with them this year! It was an honor and a privilege! I can't wait to see where 2019 takes us!!!

Hi! I'm Sarah!
I am a natural light portrait photographer. I've been taking photos since 2014 and would eat a smoothie from Tropical Smoothie Cafe for lunch everyday if I could. Thank you so much for stopping by. I blog about sessions, things I'm learning, stuff in my life, and information for YOU, my client. If you like what you see around the site, I'd love to work with you! I'd also love to connect with you on Instagram. I'm @sarah_jayne_photo :) Archives
