I don’t even really know how to write this post. 😔
Over the weekend, the business above my studio had a washing machine malfunction. It continuously filled with water for THREE DAYS STRAIGHT, flooding the building and causing significant water damage to my studio.
To say I’m heartbroken doesn’t even begin to cover it.
I’ve cried about as much as I think my body will physically allow. Walking into my studio and seeing everything I’ve worked so incredibly hard for in shambles… there really aren’t words for that feeling.
This studio isn’t just four walls to me. I have poured years of my life, my heart, my time, and so much work into creating this space. Every little corner has been built into something I’m proud of—a place where I get to create, snuggle your babies, watch your families grow, and capture some of the biggest moments of your lives.
And just like that, everything changed.
Unfortunately, all in-studio sessions are on hold for the time being while we figure out the extent of the damage and what comes next. If you currently have an in-studio session scheduled with me, I will be reaching out to you directly as soon as I have a better idea of the timeline.
My heart also absolutely breaks for Diamond Lounge, Spilled Ink, and the other businesses in our building that were affected by this disaster. So many small businesses and so much hard work were impacted.
I’m overwhelmed. I’m devastated. And right now, I’m just trying to take it one day at a time.
But Block Photography isn’t going anywhere. 🤎
I just have one hell of a mess to clean up first. 😔
Thank you to everyone who has already reached out, checked on me, offered to help, or simply reminded me how loved and supported this little business is. It means more right now than I could ever put into words. 🤎
