May goals? How in the world am I writing the blog post for May goals? I have loved tracking my monthly goals here on the blog, because I’m so much more aware of the flow of each month so far.  This is the time of year where weddings, engagement sessions, and consultations are in full swing.  Life feels like it’s almost come back full swing for Ryan and me, too.  We are both fully vaccinated now, so we feel comfortable seeing our friends and family on a regular basis.  There aren’t many dull moments around here lately.  When I think back to when I was writing my goal posts for January or February, the pace of life was completely different.  It’s such a good reminder that seasons constantly change.  So, when it feels like I’m overwhelmed with too much work, or bored out of my mind with nothing on my plate- it’s all temporary.  The thing about wedding photography is that it’s incredible seasonal, and that’s something I struggle with because I feel so lazy in the winter months.  Ramble aside, I don’t feel lazy in the month of May!

I love May! Ryan’s birthday is in May. Derby is in May. Things just seem to be happening, and the flowers are pretty.  The weather is just right.  It’s the perfect time to get married.  Here are some of my goals for this month!

• Photograph two May weddings
• Keep my herbs alive
• Stay consistent with exercise routine
• Blog two weddings from April
• Styled shoot

There we go!  Nothing crazy.  Because my April weddings happened so fast, I haven’t got them out of the door and onto the blog yet, so that’s a huge goal I have for May.  I’m also going to a styled shoot in Lexington this month.  I really don’t remember the last time I went to a styled shoot, so I think it’ll be a lot of fun to see other creatives in person.

Ryan’s birthday is this month, and my nephew Walter is graduating kindergarten.  Those are two things I’m really looking forward to.  So, even though they aren’t goals, they are honorable mentions.  Happy May everyone!
