What's NEXT for EmilieCarol.
You might be wondering why we have a countdown to July in our office, and why I am giddy with excitement. I am taking the MONTH of July off. Haha, I am going to just go ahead and laugh at that statement and clarify. There is NO such thing as time off when you own a business, there are moments, hours, and maybe sometimes extended periods of time never exceeding 24 hours where my mind and heart are consumed by other things, however this business is my baby, and it never really leaves me EVER. It's a reality I never wanted see when I started a business. Owning a business that is really selling YOU and the talent you were blessed with comes with the pressure of knowing what it takes to deliver quality products again and again. Time OFF becomes vital to continued success. However you may or may not know that July 1st marks 1 WHOLE year that I've lived in Greenville, and since I moved here I haven't stopped moving in fact I've had a front row seat to 214 portrait sessions, 20 major events + parties, shot 14 weddings {all over the world}, and countless other things, all totaling 198,560 clicks on my cameras combined. I only tell you this as some perspective as I make the choice to not take on any new clients in the month of July. If you've ever owned a business you know there are many parts, but they can be put into two categories. Working IN your business, and working ON your business. So will I work in the month of July? Absolutely, I can't help it. This business is my passion, my heart and after almost three years, my life. My hope and prayer for the month of July is to take a step back, regain the BIG picture, work a little less, enjoy the pool a little more, and recharge my batteries to come back swinging this fall. What does this mean for you, my client? We won’t be keeping “office hours” or "studio hours", but my amazing assistant will be in the office answering phone calls, texts, emails etc. If you want to book a session, or have a question about your photos DON'T HESITATE to call, text or email, just know we will do our best to communicate with you clearly, but we ask for your patience and understanding during this important month. I can’t thank you all enough for this amazing FIRST year in Greenville, and the wonderful joy you all have brought to my life. I’ve laughed, cried, and cherished every single click.
Love, EmilieCarol
