I am an Artist. l Douglasville Family Photographer

5/15/2012

0 Comments

 
So I have been in business for over a year now.  I am have been blessed with great support from my husband, family, and friends.  Of course, I am a wife and mother first but this business has given me an outlet. 

Not sure if many know this but I am an artist. 

I would always tell people..,"I was an artist". I would say this because as an educator, mother, and wife; my art got away from me.  Well now I can say that my art has found me again.  

Growing up, I begged my parents for art lessons.  I took lessons from Mr. Lane at Lane School of Art every Saturday morning from 4th grade till I graduated high school.  It was a place where I could escape and just be myself.  I then went to college and realized that being an artist wasn't practical.  It wasn't going to make me money or have a real career.  I then decided to go into psychology.  After a few classes, I still missed art classes and decided, why can't I do both? So I double majored in studio art and psychology.  I didn't go to a fancy art school. I just did it because it made me happy.  I thought, how cool would it be to be an Art Therapist?  After much research, I realized that I couldn't really make a career out of it.  I always worked with children and summer camps for children with disabilities; I found my calling as a special education teacher.  I went back to graduate school and focused on the early intervention.  I got to be creative in my teachings, do art projects, get messy, and have fun with some of my favorite kids.  

After 7 years of being an educator, being a mommy was calling to be full-time. My husband supported me in being home with both my kids. At the time, I had a newborn and a 2 year old.  I had found the artist in me through photos of my kids.  I wanted to capture everything about them.  I wanted to make sure the memories were not forgotten.  With the support of my husband, I started Kirsten Lee Photography.  I have learned so much through reading, trial and error, and other wonderful photographers.  The most important thing I have learned? My style.  I want to capture your family, just like I want to capture my kids.  I want to make sure that I freeze your moment in time so that you have it with you forever.  I love to take that emotion and put it in a photo.   

You ask me why I am writing this? Well, I just finished editing a session and when looking at this family, I smiled.  I love that I can see their happiness, their love, and their faith in god just by looking at the photos.  I hope that when you see these photos, you can feel it too.
