2015...write the vision and make it plain.

Let the refining and improving of your own life keep you so busy that you have little time to criticize others.-- H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

They're not resolutions...just things I'd like to accomplish in 2015.

Personal (in no special order)
1.  Develop and maintain a consistent daily devotional life.  Through the good times and the I-want-to-flip-out-and-throw-some-stuff-at-somebody times.  This includes quiet time with God, praying, reading and meditating upon His Word, worshipping and listening to the voice of the Holy Spirit.
2. Practice healthier living habits--eating and exercise.  Even if my husband chooses the double whopper with cheese and bacon and I'm oh-so-tempted to indulge as well, I have to do what's right for my body and my health.  30 minutes of exercise, three times a week.
3. Commit to intentionally doing things to make my husband feel special.
4.  Nurture my child by spending a set amount of time with her every single day to nurture her appropriately.
5. Win souls for Jesus Christ.  Nuff said.  I have never done it.  My testimonies and intercessions have always been for those who already know Him.  What about those who don't?  The whole world is groaning and travailing...awaiting the manifestations of the sons of God.  just saying....there's no time like the present.
6. Travel out of PA (and I'm not talking to the DMV) at least three times.
7. Shoot generations of women (daughters, mothers, grandmothers, etc.) and document their stories via photo and video to publish on my personal blog.  I intend for these shoots to kindle my creativity and build my glamour and fine art portfolio should I choose to launch that portion of my brand next year.
8. Begin some sort of tradition that involves celebration, laughter, food, family, and friends!
9.  Complete the our bedroom and dining room.
10.  Read ALL of the books of the Bible chronologically.
11.  Read 6 books.

Business
1.  Develop and implement a senior model program with 15 members of the class of 2016 representing the In The Image brand.  These young women will be college-bound, articulate, driven, goal-oriented, and committed to servicing their communities.  They will also represent a number of different types of schools in the Philadelphia metro region.

2.  Travel with my senior models to New Orleans, Louisiana to recreate the Solange white wedding shoot.

3.  Purchase new gear including: (1) D750 full frame camera (2) Nikon Nikkor AF-S 85 mm F/1.4 G (3) Nikon Nikkor AF-S 24-70 mm F/2.8 G (4) a brand stinkin' new laptop for that can handle photo and video editing!!!!!

4. Shoot and sell at least 30 senior sessions before the year is over with an average of $1,000 in sales per session.

5. Build a rock-solid and consistent brand for modern high school senior photography.

6.  Join a group of like-minded creatives who push me to think outside of the box and reach my full potential.

7.  Purchase a seat at Amanda Holloway's Kitchen Sink Workshop in 2016!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Like...I REALLY WANT THIS! Please and THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!

8.  Submit 4 shoots for national magazine publication

9.  Shift from shoot and burn to in-person sales

10.  Organize the basement as a set room for makeup AND in-person sales.
