We are Moving! | Photographer Coming Soon to North Bay
Well, another year is coming to a close, and as I wrap up in preparation for a quick break over Christmas, I have decided that now is a good time to share some news with you all…
2019 will mark the year that I have spent half of my entire life living in Barrie. The first half of my life was spent living in a small town, with a small-town community feel to it (which I 100% took for granted at the time). I feel like this announcement will come as a huge shock to some of you that I haven’t had a chance to tell in person yet, but I can’t hide it forever… I have been sitting on this decision for the last 5 months, and I didn’t want to let the proverbial cat out of the bag until I was 10,000% sure that it was the right thing to do. It’s time.
The Raindance Photography family is relocating. Not just down the street this time, either. While Barrie is a beautiful City, rich in culture and entertainment, and perfect for so many people for so many reasons – our hearts belong to the North. We’ve decided, as a family, that we will be moving to the North Bay area by the Summer of 2019. We are so over the moon excited about this decision! We all know that it’s the right thing to do at this time in our lives. We look forward to everything the future holds for us, all of the new adventures, the new people we’ll meet, the new lives we’ll lead.
As a business, I will never forget my humble beginnings here in Barrie. I will always appreciate all of you who helped me learn and grow along the way. I want all of you to know that, while I’m moving, it’s not goodbye forever! I will be returning to Barrie for one weekend a month during the months of May-September each year. I will also continue to run my annual Tree Farm Mini event in this area too! If you know that you’d like to snag me while I’m here (I will see 3 families per weekend) then please sign up using this form. This isn’t a commitment to book, this is simply a form for you to let me know that you’re interested in having more information once I have concrete dates nailed down and you would like the opportunity for first dibs when that information is available.
Thanks to everyone who’s read this far! I’m encouraging everyone who might know someone who lives in North Bay or the surrounding areas to please tag those folks and share this news with them to help me begin to rebuild a brand new client base once we’ve moved. I’m also going to need all kinds of help and recommendations for services that my own family will need once we move. If any of you fabulous folks have recommendations for anything from dentists to doctors to hairstylists and recreational activities – please tag those businesses on Facebook or send me private messages to help connect us!
In other news – Clients of 2018, watch this page and your email for news of the 2018 Client Appreciation Contest, which will be launching the first few weeks of January! Don’t forget to fill out the information form to sign up for information on session dates when I will be back in this area after we’ve moved!
If you happen to be a resident of North Bay (or a surrounding area) and would like to sign up for information about when I will be available to book a session in your area, please sign up using the information form.
Thank you everyone! Wishing you all the best this Holiday Season! Merry Christmas!
Love,
Stephanie & The Raindance Family
Sharing is fun!
