I keep seeing that this week last year was the last normal week and no one knew it. How are you feeling about coming up on the one year anniversary of when the world shut down? Whatās has changed for you and in you in the last year? What hasnāt changed? Is there any change youāve welcomed with open arms?

You can set up a camera or your phone and set the timer to take family photos, but it doesnāt see you like I do. It canāt see the magic unfolding like I can. It canāt intentionally click that shutter at the moment you fall into each other. It also canāt move for those storytelling angles and light. Sure, you can take your own photos, but itās no replacement for a human who really SEES you on the other side of that camera. ā„ļø

This little dude melts me. His hand on his face reminds me of āawww, daaadā from A Goofy Movie. Anyone else? Sooo funny! And these warmer temps are getting me all kinds of excited for warmer days ahead and my favorite seasons to shoot in. āļø š±š¾

Less than a week and my kiddos will be back to school. Say what?! Last year was a year of pivoting, constantly. And surviving. In all the down time I had, I was able to soul search and really decide what it was that I felt pulled to do. And I should finally have time to launch these things. What are they? ⢠Mentoring for photographers This will not include editing, because truth be told, itās not my favorite. And Iāve built my own personal preset using a preset I bought as a base. So, just not my thang. What it will include: how to find your voice in your work, creating your signature, doing your cost of doing business and pricing yourself accordingly, how I run my business start to finish, how I run my sessions and everything before and after, etc. The end goal will be to help you find your own magic and do it on purpose. ⢠Small Business Branding Yes, I already offer the photography for this (and will continue to do so - I love it!), but Iām ready to take it a step further. Need someone to help you figure out what your brand is? Need help deciding on colors? Need help keeping it consistent throughout? I can help. ⢠Website design Getting to know people is something I love to do. I love to pick your brain and get to the root of why you do what you do. And I love helping you combine it into a website that feels like you. Now, SEO isnāt my thing, so if youāre looking for more of that along with a website designer...Iām not your girl. But if youāre looking to uplevel your business and have a functional website that feels like you and attracts your ideal client...Iām so here for that! What else would you like to see me offer, if anything? Do tell!

Life feels a little flipped upside down right now. Weāre headed to Reno to see my husbandās grandmother, who was just put on hospice. And in less than 2 weeks, my mom will be having hip-replacement surgery. Itās leaving me feeling unsettled, a little raw and worried. This image has nothing to do with all of that, of course. It just gives me a little smile on these difficult days. I am so grateful for what I get to do and the amazing people I get to meet. ā„ļø

Isnāt it hard to fathom that one day they will be dancing in their own living room with their own created family instead of with us? Isnāt it so bittersweet that one day, so suddenly, without us even noticing, they will stop reaching for our hand and march off bravely on their own? Isnāt it hard to imagine this life we created will one day fly away and create the life they wish for themselves? As a mom, my heart and mind canāt help but wander here from time to time. Itās puts me in a space to appreciate what I have right now in this very moment. And it is the very reason that photos are so important to me. We truly donāt know the value of a moment until itās long gone. But, at least Iāll always have the images of all the stages of my life to look back on. There is nothing more meaningful to me than this, besides being in and participating in every single moment I can, with all those that I love more than life itself.

Are yaāll ready for some exciting news? Itās been maybe 3 or 4 years since Iāve done something like this! Itās GIVEAWAY time! Help me reach 1200 Instagram followers AND 1800 Facebook followers. This might take a while, but I have faith that you can all help me get there! Hereās the deal: Each time you share my Instagram or Facebook to your stories or feed and encourage your friends to follow me (make sure to tag me and that itās public so I can see your shares!), you will get one entry into the giveaway for a FULL SESSION OF YOUR CHOICE. This can be used for family, couple, in home, in-home newborn, etc. Basically any session I offer is yours for FREE if you win. Once I hit my goal of 1200 Instagram and 1800 Facebook followers, I will draw a name! How quick do you think we can make this happen?

I got to hang with these three this morning and they melt my freaking heart! These two babies are so lucky to have the sweetest, most caring mama around. Iām so grateful she welcomed me into their lives and allowed me to document so many wonderful moments for them. Now, do tell. Which would you choose? Color or black and white? I loooove both!

Just look at this precious little babes! I cannot believe this was 4ish months ago. And totally unrelated...do you know how hard it is to pick out your own best images? Iām currently updating my pricing guide, and planning to work on updating my website (as soon as I finish @savannah_johnson_photographyās) and boy, it is a struggle! Anyone offer a class on how to see your own images through anotherās eyes? š

With our 13th v-day together coming up, Iām trying to think of new ideas for my man. No, Iām not huge on celebrating the holiday, but I love any excuse to celebrate us and one of the best things to ever happen to me. What are your plans for your significant other this year? I need all the ideas I can get!

It has been YEARS since I did a giveaway, and Iāve been contemplating it lately. I, personally, donāt super care about numbers (likes and follows), but Iād love to continue growing my business and pick up some major momentum. So, what do you think? Would you help me reach my goals for the chance to win a full session with me?

You wouldnāt know it, but this day was on the chilly side. We got lucky that we were out there the day before a big storm hit. Believe it or not, these were also taken on their property, so we were able to go inside and let the kids warm up by the fire, too. It was such a dreamy session. Right now, in a world that feels so chaotic, my clients have been such a light. I donāt know most of their political standings, but I do know that every single one of them are good people with good hearts and so much love for their loves. It helps me believe that we (as a whole) will get through this and come out on the other side. ā„ļø

Hey guys! I know been posting here (outside of stories) for a while now, but Iām still around. Still finishing up editing the amazing sessions I ended my 2020 and started my 2021 with. Truth be told, I am in a funk. One of those ones that usually means Iām on the verge of a breakthrough, and about to be catapulted into the next phase. What that phase is, I havenāt a clue, but I do hope it makes itās way into my life sooner than later! These times of rest and quiet contemplation usually result in a blast of motivation, determination and excitement for me. It would be absolutely amazing if 2021 had that in store. So hereās the thing...while I wait this out, what should I do with my time? Do you experience periods like this, too? What do you feel like helps moves your personal growth along?

Do you ever have those moments where you realize right then and there that someday youāre going to miss āthisā? This morning, Sawyer was sitting next to me on the couch when suddenly he cuddled into me and said, āMy little mama. Youāre my little snuggle bug.ā We then proceeded to āargueā about who is whoās āsnugga bug.ā These moments melt my heart and are for sure the ones I will always look fondly back on.

At every session, I watch to see what your connections are really like. Your reality is far more important to me than creating the so-called perfect image. I love real, because it is the most beautiful and true thing, and thatās what I believe you deserve to hold onto. I always hope to capture images that feel like something to me, in hopes that theyāll feel like something to you, too. I like to believe that thatās what we all want; photos to look back on when weāre old and gray that remind us of the wonderful life weāve lived with the ones who were our heart.

This family was so sweet! Shorter sessions are always so bittersweet for me. Every single session starts with general discomfort; it takes everyone (me included!) some time to settle in to being in front of the camera. Often when I run these holiday sessions, we are just getting warmed up when itās time to stop. We always get cute stuff anyway, but I always leave wanting more time with you!
