Wow! When you make plans, God laughs - they say! Good thing I do believe everything happens for a reason. 
Even finishing out last year with a torn achilles tendon and doctor ordered couch-potatoe-time! The good thing was that the biggest part of the 2019 photo season was done by then.

(about 170ish young football players and cheerleaders, and their coaches - all in one day - What a blast!)

Now was time to just finish up Senior Session. Haha! I said 'just'! Guess it would have been 'just/easy/quick' if that achilles tendon would not have snapped. That cut my being able to work time down to a zero at first, and then VERY slowly back up to about 75% by now. I am so very grateful for the help I have received most of all from my awesome husband (who's also my therapist, so no cheating on sitting too long and such!). My son, Simon, who is only 17 and in his senior year in HighSchool, took over an assignment from me and photographed the about 500 people(!) LiveToLead Event at the Sentry in Stevens Point

AND he also was the lead photographer for a small wedding! He hired me ;-) as a second photographer and posing assistant and my husband as our VAL (voice activated light stand)

So, what am I trying to say with this - other than can't stop talking about my son because I am so proud of him and so very excited for his future! - well, I think O'DAY PHOTOGRAPHY is becoming more and more of a family business. Simon, the 17 year old, is the oldest of our 4 and the next 3 are at least as promising. I am excited for 2020, I am excited to grow in my skills, I am excited to take better care of my clients (they have been so patient with me especially during that last 2019 quarter!).

Let's do 2020 together! It'll be awesome! First event is the revealing of the senior banners for the LHS Boys' Swim team. And first big new session will be the STORM Cheer Team. I am thrilled - this is a great start!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
