I am one of those people who get an itch every five years or so for a change. This year, my almost five year itch has set in and after a lot of consideration (my husband’s work, our distaste for long winters, my daughter starting kindergarten and wanting to put her into a school for the long run), we have made the decision to head BACK to California at the end of this summer. While we initially planned on returning to Santa Cruz, we instead opted to go a bit north to Sonoma County, and found our new home in Petaluma (side note, I seriously considered naming my older daughter Petaluma and calling her Luma. Small world!)

So what does this mean for my Colorado clients? I few things- anyone with outstanding sessions with me who hasn’t heard from me should feel free to reach out. I do plan on flying in both for planned sessions (though I may try to rearrange some a bit so I can knock out a few in one trip) and for periodic trips in for future shoots. I have ALSO hired a couple of outstanding photographers whose style aligns with mine and they will go out do the shoots for me, but I will communicate and edit the images to maintain my Sunshine Lady Photography culture! I’m super excited to expand my business into a team of incredible women and also am excited to incentivize my clients to give my new setup a shot with a complimentary $100 discount on your photo session when you work with one of my associates.
