It&#8217;s been a *process*.  The hardest of all this has been taking my 18 years of professional photography work and distilling it into bite sized pieces. <br><br>I&#8217;ve been known to say &#8220;This is one of my favorite images!&#8221; and honestly if I say it it&#8217;s absolutely true. I live for moments, for beautiful intangible (unless photographed) moments and sometimes there is this SPARK of magic that hits just right and gets me in my feels.<br><br>So imagine innumerable photographs needing to be distilled into a bite sized glimpse of what I&#8217;ve done over the years\u2026all the families I&#8217;ve adopted into my own by way of professional photography.<br><br>I am taking this time to say thank you. This is likely one of the few last posts on this version of the blog before I transition over to a site with a new blog attached. I&#8217;ve had to do server upgrades and have lost my old website, thankfully the one I have up now is a temporary fix of a site I never really used, but technology continues to march on. Hopefully this one can be transitioned over and maintained for awhile longer as I love the memories and frankly it&#8217;s been around with me since almost the beginning back in 2005. Thank you for visiting and I hope we get to catch up soon!!<br><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A beautiful river front engagement session in the city of Chicago<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":5818,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_kad_post_classname":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[65],"tags":[12,368],"class_list":["post-5816","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-chicago-professional-photographer","tag-chicagoland-relationship-fine-art-photographer","tag-engagement-photography"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.marmaladephotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5816","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.marmaladephotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.marmaladephotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.marmaladephotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.marmaladephotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5816"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.marmaladephotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5816\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.marmaladephotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5818"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.marmaladephotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5816"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.marmaladephotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5816"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.marmaladephotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5816"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
