My business evolution… Big NEWS!!! | Hampton Roads Photographer

Six years!  I have been in business over six years.  I started with an office in my bedroom and then moved into my garage. Then, four years ago we moved  across town and I finally had my own office space in my home where clients could come do their viewings.  It wasn’t ideal having everyone come to my house, but I was still a new business and it worked!  For the past year I have been praying about moving my business outside my home.  I have had a lot of reservations, mostly rooted in fear, but decided to put it out there and see what God would do.   I was pretty specific about what I wanted though.  A space where I could meet with clients and do their viewing sessions, a small studio space for my newborn sessions, within a specific price range AND needed to be near my home.  I have been looking around and NOTHING met those criteria.  I wasn’t discouraged, I had faith the right place would show up when the time was right.

 

Unexpectedly, two days ago, that time was upon me!  I am now the owner of my own business space less than a mile from my home!  “Cue fireworks and confetti”

 

WOW!  Yes, I’ve been praying on it, but seeing places that were 2-4 times by budget just made me think that finding a space meeting my requirements just wasn’t going to happen.  Should have known not to doubt God!

 

Wednesday morning I posted this on Facebook…

I posted this in the morning and then, just happened to check craigslist on a whim for office space.  By 6:00, I had the keys to a new space in my hand!!!!!!  WHAT??!!?!?!?

 

All I can say is that I am in awe.  I am scared, nervous, excited and overwhelmed!  But I have great friends and a supportive family and we’re busy painting and buying furniture and working hard to get it ready.

 

Can’t wait to show it off!!!!  I am heading out of town Sunday for a photography school in New Jersey.  (www.marsschool.com)  I’ll be home next weekend and plan to be in the office and working by that Monday!!!

 

I am so thankful for the past six years.  I am honored to have been blessed by so many of you who have trusted me to capture your precious family portraits.  I am so excited to see what the future holds for Devon Shanor Photography and thank all of you, from the bottom of my heart, for standing by and supporting me!
