In late 2019 I began to feel like taking Meredith Brooke Photography full-time could be the next right thing for me professionally. 

I was in my last semester before graduating with my Master's in Theology and the situation with my full-time job was deteriorating. I was ready for a creative challenge, but I also needed to get out of the bad work environment I was in and Meredith Brooke Photography was growing.

After much prayer and late-nights of talking with my husband about whether it was a wise decision for me to leave my state job, I walked into my boss's office and let him know I would be leaving in a few short months. 

My last day at that job was February 28, 2020, just three short weeks before the pandemic hit the US and everything, including weddings, were shut down. 

In the last two years through Christ alone and with the encouragement and support of some of the best photographer friends, my family, my husband Kyle, and hard work I've built a sustainable business that I am incredibly proud of. 

I shot 2 weddings in 2019, and now I average around 18 per year...all because I said yes to the adventure God had written for me. 

It's been a challenging adventure of faith, but it's also made me very passionate about encouraging other people to say yes to the adventures God may be welcoming them into as well!
