There's this little place in Pleasant View that I absolutely LOVE. I randomly drive through the area once or twice a month...ok maybe more :)
To dream.
Dream about having a cozy little studio space. A space to bring clients to get to know them. A place where I could actually see my clients reactions when they see their photos for the very first time.
A place that is warm and welcoming to not only my clients but my photography friends.
My plan was to start small, rent a little office space then save up for a bigger studio space.
Ha! God had a slightly different path for me.
I found out that the owner of the bakery in that area was looking to share a spot with someone. That is when I met Melinda.
And just like all of my amazing clients she had an amazing story :)
If your local you will know who I am talking about when I mention the famous Brown Sugar Cake Room. Melinda is the owner of this amazing bakery and has made several wedding cakes for some of my brides.
Melinda and her husband have been going down the long road of infertility and intense fertility treatments for over a year now. This is something that is taking up quite a bit of their time and energy and they decided they needed more of both of those to continue down this path. So, in an effort to help them pursue their desire to expand their family, they decided to re-structure their business plan; ( insert me) to allow them to achieve both of their dreams, keeping their bakery and having a child.
SO I am beyond excited to announce that I will be opening up my very own studio space in the next few months in the Pleasant View Village and sharing the space with Brown Sugar Cake Room.
I am so excited to create a space for not only my amazing clients but that will also allow for brides to come in and taste her super yummy wedding cakes!
Which by the way the space smells sooooo amazing, I might need to move in a tread mill.
Seriously.
This truly feels like a dream come true and could not have happened with out a few people who believed in both of us to make it happen.
God is so good and I just know this is not only going to be my year but a year for Melinda and her husband.
Stay tuned for the Grand Opening........and yes we will have cake :)
