This past year, I started thinking more and more about my body of work, and what I want my legacy to be. ⁠ ⁠ I want to make beautiful photos my clients will treasure for more than a lifetime, and I also want everyone (myself & my clients) to enjoy the process. ❤️⁠ ⁠ I stopped stressing over booking more business. I’ve let go of the fear of losing a potential client — I’m not trying to convince anyone to choose me as their wedding photographer. ⁠ ⁠ Instead, I've put my focus on just being myself and being present for my clients, from the initial inquiry through the months before their wedding to the delivery of their photos and album. ⁠ ⁠ This year, I'm proud to say that I have lived by my own rules about being calm — I definitely feel more relaxed, and like I have more breath and space to create my best work.⁠ ⁠ I’ve been planting these seeds of calm, enthusiasm, and love over the last few years, and now, the fruits of my labor are appearing in every project, relationship, and process. ⁠ ⁠ I'm so grateful.⁠ ⁠ More on my blog at @cdugganphoto. 🔗 // #BerkshireWeddings #InTheBerkshires #PittsfieldCountryClub #PittsfieldMA
