New years are great for new beginnings. It’s refreshing to ring in a new year with a new planner, new ideas, new resolutions. . .and this year with a new business!
VSD Photography is officially launching on 01 January 2017!
There are multiple reasons I’m launching at this time in my life.
- the girls are a little more self sufficient and better independent learners with homeschooling. I can focus a little bit more on my interests (this has been a long time coming!)
- retirement may or may not be around a future corner for my husband (we honestly have no idea what the future holds!) so it’s a good time for me to start learning how to make money again.
- Mostly: I love photography! and and am interested in pursuing it as an art and as a career.
There have been so many hoops to jump through and red tape to slash. I’m waiting on one more license and I will be fully official. Now to make the money to pay for all the licenses and taxes!
That’s me, ready take all the pictures! (It’s supposed to be a cinemagraph, but WordPress.com doesn’t support them. Try clicking and see if it takes you to the moving picture).
So, welcome 2017! I’m anticipating lots of good things!
What about you? What are your plans for the new year?

Stunning news, Vicki! You are doing what I’m still mulling over! Wish you so much success, and I’m sure you will do it! Love to hear your experiences and see the results! Wish you and your family the best for 2017! Marcus
Thanks! It seems like a giant leap and yet a small step at the same time. One minute I’m planning grandiose things, and the other I’m reminding myself that my main goal is still to teach the girls. Trying to remember to follow God’s lead in how He wants me to proceed. I know Germany has strict rules and lots of regulations — (Florida seems to be similar!) — so good luck in your future endeavors – go for it!
