Whoops, we totally missed February goals!  Let’s just pretend February never even happened!  Truth be told, it was actually a relatively productive month for me.  After spending the bulk of Winter resting for the 2021 Wedding Season, a lot of planning and organization went into February.  I found my energy again and am feeling pretty […]

This blog post is going to seem so random and short, but I’ve never talked about it before.  I’ve been updating my portfolio for next year, and have noticed a trend.  Brides will spend good money on their cake, only to have it placed in a spot that isn’t well-lit, and has a messy background. […]

  With a little bit of foresight and planning, there are ways to avoid a lot of stress on your wedding day.  A huge goal of mine as a wedding photographer is to do a lot of planning and work with my brides before the big day, so that when it arrives, we are completely […]

Your wedding invitation is the very first impression you get to make on your guests, and it is also the very first thing I’ll photograph on your wedding day!  It’s a key component in making sure your gallery looks tied together and cohesive. When I send out my pre-wedding questionnaire to my brides around two […]

  This is probably the most difficult year to pinpoint my goals.  After a year like 2020, I have to admit, I’m dealing with some fear over what 2021 may hold.  But, I’m still hopeful that 2021 will pan out as it’s written in the calendar!  It’s tough to come up with plans and goals, […]

A few months ago, I decided that every month I would share a quick post detailing my goals for the coming month here on the blog! Right now, I’m in the height of my slow season, and I’m trying to soak it up as much as possible.  I’ve been reading a lot.  I bought a […]

“Gratitude turns what we have into enough.” 2020 was nothing like I thought it would be, and it was the most unexpected and challenging year I’ve faced as a small business owner.  But, I’m extremely grateful for every couple I’ve met and worked with.  I’m most grateful for the friendships and connections I’ve made along […]

I’ve lost count of how many sessions I’ve photographed at Bernheim Forest, but I never get tired of it.  It’s huge and appropriately named.  Every time I go there, the foliage looks just a little bit different.  I can shoot here year round.  And, I love supporting Bernheim.  If you’ve never been, it’s a great […]

Before the month gets away from me, I want to intentionally think about a couple of goals for December.  Where in the world did November go?  Thanksgiving is next week and I find it hard to believe!  It seems I was just planning out my November goals.  I am looking forward to Christmas this year […]

Why was this my first time shooting at Historic Whitehall?!  I love this place so much.  I’m SO glad Katie and Justin chose this spot for their engagement session!  I’m not sure if I’ve shared this before or not, but Whitehall was my “dream” venue when I was planning our wedding.  It was completely booked […]
