It has always been said that one should never mix business with friendship; it might cause to you to perform poorly in business, or end up regretting mixing the two. And in many situations, it probably makes a whole lot of sense. However that is not the approach I have taken in running my business. In my experience – bringing together business, passion, and friendship creates magic.
The relationships that I have built with my clients create life-long friendships. They become part of my studio family. I love to watch their children grow up right before my eyes. Capturing these special memories for my clients is both an honor and joy. Can’t think of a better job.
Just the other day, I had to say goodbye to a family that has been part of my studio family for more than three years. They are a military family who left the Islands for the East Coast. I have enjoyed watching their children grow. Emily first came to me at three months old and has grown into a fun, spunky little girl, while Madison is growing to a beautiful young lady, and let’s not forget about Samuel, who is going to have the girls running after him soon enough. And because of our friendship, I know that one day I will get to see them again.
So, is the magic worth the risk of mixing friendship and business...most
DEFINITELY!
