I didn’t want to make a big to do, but October 1st was my Blogiversary. It is crazy to me that it has been a year already. It went by so fast! I learned so much this past year, and I cannot wait to take what I learned and make The Miller Affect even better! Thank you so much for your continued support. I couldn’t do what I love without you!

I learned a lot in my first year, but mostly I am thankful for all of the opportunities I have had. I couldn’t have done it without the following people:
Thank you to Adria Lea Photography (my sister) for taking time out of her busy schedule to take my photos for free. Without this, I wouldn’t have grown so fast. Your continued support and awe keeps me fighting to be even better. I love you.
Thank you to my boyfriend. Our little camera isn’t much, but we bought it together and for that I am so proud of it. Thank you so much for stepping in in Adria’s absence to take my photos. I know that it can’t be fun for you, but you pretend it is and work hard at keeping it fun for me. Thank you for believing in me. I love you!
Thank you to my Facebook group, InstaStyle Society. You girls have taught me so incredibly much. You have taught me how important a blogging community is. Most of all, you have taught that jealousy only keeps you stagnant. Together, you have all helped me get where I am.
Thanks to Bridget Ryan. You know what you have done for me. You also gave me confidence when I really didn’t have much and you gave me advice that was priceless. Your class and style will always be something I look up to.
Thank you to Stephanie Drenka. You met with me and taught me all about how to work the back end of the blog.. and you still answer my questions right away without expecting anything in return. It is so refreshing to know there are still people out there like that. You are the reason why I try to give as much as I can on my blog and do not keep any secrets to myself. My blog wouldn’t be what it is today without your willingness to give, your leadership and your expertise. Thank you thank you!
Lastly, thank you to Jaclyn Mittman. I may have never even started a blog if yours hadn’t given me so much inspiration. You are truly an artist in what you do.
I am sure I am missing tons of names, but when I think about how I got where I am so fast, these people come to mind. I am forever grateful!
Tomorrow, I will share some of my favorite memories from this past year :). <3
