Two hearts united, bound by love and guided by tradition. 💍

Nashae & John’s wedding at the Grand Masonic Lodge in Hunt Valley, MD, was a true reflection of the deep connection they share and the timeless values they hold dear. The venue, rich in history and symbolism, reflected the strong foundation of their love.

By incorporating a Masonic inspired poem during the reception, this trailer blends their unique love story with the wisdom passed down through generations, as it lives on in their hearts and in these memories captured forever.

May they continue to carve out their future on a foundation as built on love & tradition for many years to come.

“Now take these tools and let them guide, each rising wall you build inside. For love, like temples, will endure when laid on lines, both strong & pure.”

Today marks my 3 year business anniversary and I’m taking time to reflect on the rollercoaster ride its been.

While I have been in photo/video for 6 years total, I formed my own business back on Sept. 1st, 2021. This whole career wasn’t an inherit calling of mine but I knew I had to get out of restaurants as a wine director.

So for first 3 years, I learned how to shoot & edited photos (before AI was around) then switched to video. During that time, I got to meet a lot of people and that would later prove to be invaluable.

After I moved back home to Baltimore in August 2021, I had no car, no business, no employment history, and no income history, besides some pandemic assistance money I saved up along with my cameras.

Once back home, I used what I had to buy a car with 50% down, got business insurance and filed for business formation, leaving me with nothing left. I went all in because I had fallen in love with the craft.

But then something remarkable happened that proved money & gear isn’t the only key to success - it was more personal. All those brief interactions I had made during my first 3 years guided me to join

Back then, the group had 300 people. The community immediately accepted me and I started getting associate shooting gigs left & right.

Even after getting hit by a car while riding my bike in May 2022, having broken my foot and almost lost an eye, I still shot 75 weddings in 2022 alone realizing my purpose was for something greater.

Since the community embraced me, I embraced it. I came in & did exactly I did before: built up a business, built up a community then built a conference.

Today, that community is sitting at 2,000 people and our conference is in its 3rd year with all the top camera vendors plus iconic photographers and 200+ attendees, our biggest year yet.

I am beyond grateful to everyone who has ever supported me and the meaningful relationships I have formed since. Thank you for giving me the best years of my life.

I hope my journey may serve as a reminder that even if you start with nothing, you can rise stronger by staying committed with both your mind and your heart.
