Why A Rebrand?
Tuesday, May 07, 2024 | By: Charlotte Harp
Listen, I get it has been confusing for my Dothan people.
I recently had a client tell me she had trouble finding me, but it was because she was looking for Charlotte King Photography.
In short, I divorced in 2022, and remarried earlier this year. I knew last year near Fall, that we would be getting married, and I no longer wanted to have ties to that last name any more, in fact I had went back to my maiden name.
I contemplated on name choices, but it was so hard. I then had a light bulb go off.
I have three littles (technically 4 with my stepson), but at the time, three littles lol. Tilley had recently passed away, and her parents called her Bean.
I loved that little girl, so then it was so simple and easy....Three Little Beans.
Tilley and her family mean a lot to me, we grew close from the time Miranda (mom), was pregnant with Tilley to now. She has ALWAYS supported me, been kind, and patient even when I was going through the trenches.
She is what every photographer would want out of a client, and even more so out of a friend.
While I can not imagine what their family went through, I know the impact for me. We would have done Tilley's birthday pictures in November. She would have met the BEST Santa for her, and we would of course done mom and me this Spring.
They touched my life in so many ways, I simply can not put into words.
I remember the first time I saw Tilley's eyes pop open, or how we would all get her situated during her feisty time (seizures). I remember her starting to move her hands, and her little noises/talking she started doing! Every now and then I was lucky to grab a smile from her!
One year, my Santa laid in the floor with her, he always made sure Tilley was comfortable.
I have not shared these Christmas photos till now. Boy oh boy how life as looked after not having this little light in my life, but I do have her parents and that means the world to me!
Josh and Miranda, I simply adore you (which you know)!
I am so happy I get to honor Miss Tilley with my business name!
Right after she passed, they asked for a photo for her grave and of course, free of charge you are not paying me for it, I did it! I was in a bad spot mentally, thinking about quitting and her mom said "What you do is important, don't ever feel like it isn't. You touch so many lives and create so many memories. Thank you for all that you do". She will never know, how bad I truly needed that in that moment.
So, enjoy these sweet photos, they mean a lot to me. I will never ever not have her photos backed up. They are on locked down along with my kids! I have SO many I would love to share, but here is just a glimpse of Miss Priss sweet sweet life!
