Go ahead...soak in the cuteness!

I’m out on the East Coast for a couple weeks and I miss the desert on stormy days like today. But the time has been nice so far...lots of driving, time to reflect, giving my body a break from *over*hiking and going out a lot, brainstorming on what’s next - basically pushing reset for when I return. It may be storming outside today but April showers bring May flowers! 💖
“Courage doesn’t mean you don’t get afraid. Courage means you don’t let fear stop you.” . . Courage is gonna be my new word. When people ask if I’m scared to hike alone, go backpacking, visit new places, stay in my van, walk away from my business, be uncertain of what’s next, not have a plan, etc, I’m going to answer with a yes. But that shit won’t stop me from doing anything I want to do while I’m young, able, and opportunities present themselves. I’m going to take that courage and use it for me to live MY best life...because damn if tomorrow isn’t guaranteed.
Thank you to everyone for all the messages, emails, texts, and calls yesterday after my announcement. I’m still trying to respond to everyone but it is quite emotional, I don’t have the answers to all the questions, and I’m trying to keep on my brave face. 😬 Just navigating through this thing called life and allowing this next chapter to unfold. 💗 In the meantime, here’s an image from my solo backpacking trip last week...a great profile of the top of the Ridgeline in the Sups.
This is a big post for me but I’m just going to say it. After this next East Coast trip, McGraw Photography will be coming to an end. Wow. There it is. I’ve had my business for 9+ years and a lot has happened during that time. Many things evolved, changed, and transformed. I am one of those things. And, because of this, it’s time for my business to do the same. After much soul-searching and reflection, I have decided to stop taking clients. I have new passions, interests, and new paths to explore. I don’t know where this will lead...but really...do we ever? So...last call for photo shoots. It’s been an amazing ride and I love my clients so much. Especially the ones that have become friends. Y’all have changed my world. 🧡🧡🧡
Sometimes my second home isn’t a van. ⛺️😂
Sunset on the Ridgeline Trail in the Superstitions. Looks all easy and flat, huh? Don’t get it twisted...this was one of the only easy parts of this 13-mile #asskicker 🔥😳🔥
When an old couple whispers about you after you pass them on the trail and they say there’s no way you can carry your pack up to the top of the Sups. ✌️✌️Bye Felicia!
When you feel so small and decisions feel so big. I’m not the same person I was 10 years ago...priorities have changed, passions have evolved, residencies have moved, and people have come and gone. Gonna spend this coming week on a solo backpacking trip to figure out what else needs to go, what needs to be added, what needs to change...just a little soul-searching solo time in the desert to discover more of my authentic self. 🌵✌️#selfcare
