a change | 6.25.12

About eight months ago, we booked what we thought would be Robert & Elise's destination wedding.  We were so excited to have the opportunity to travel out of state.  Little did we know that by the time their big day rolls around, instead of living 15 hours away from our destination, we will only live 3 hours away! 

 jill & kay photography... is changing locations.
You guessed it! We're moving!

As Christians, we are asked to follow God's leading and direction wherever He calls.  We couldn't be more certain that His most recent direction for us (which of course includes Dad & Mom) is leading us to be part of the ministry at Oakland Heights Baptist Church in Longview, Texas.  

When we are obedient to follow God, He always brings blessings.  That is evident in the way we have been blessed in the five years since we were obedient to coming to Richmond from Indianapolis.  One such blessing has been, namely, jill & kay photography.  Yes!  We will so miss this area and the friendships we have here, but excited about the opportunity to find home again in Longview! [One of us, by the way, is Texan by birth.  I can say that, because this is my blog.]


We know that in light of our big news, some of you probably have some questions, so we've done our best to answer them:

Can I schedule a session before you move?
Due to our move, we will only have an opportunity to complete the sessions we currently have booked.


Can I still order prints and products from my session?
We certainly hope you will!  Never fear!  Your images will be archived for additional orders in the future. You probably won't want to stop by the house in Longview to pick them up.  However, we have quite a bit of experience in packing and shipping, so we'll ship them straight to your door!  [Please note that shipping charges will occur on every order placed after July 14th, 2012.]

If I have a wedding or a special event I want you to be part of, is there an option for you to travel?
YES - we do travel!  We love Kentucky and would be THRILLED to discuss travel options with you.  While Longview is a 13 hour drive from the Richmond area, it is only a hop and a skip by plane!  (We like having to walk out to the plane on the tarmac at our tiny Longview airport, so PLEASE fly us to you!)  :)


Can I just pay you to live in our closet and document every minute of every day with my family and make you NOT move to Texas? 
Ummmm... no.  We don't enjoy living in closets.  :)

With excitement and a bit of sadness,
jill & kay


[Oh! If you're reading from Texas... WELCOME!  We're headed your way soon!  We'll start scheduling photoshoots in the Longview area beginning August 13th!]
