Back in 2011 I said I’d NEVER shoot a wedding. I photographed almost anything you could think of while I was in school trying to become a lawyer but I wasn’t going NEAR weddings.
-
They TERRIFIED me. Until one day one of my friends was in desperate need of a second shooter for a wedding and asked me to help her out. I agreed...after a LOT of begging. I was SO scared I’d mess up. It’s such a HUGE responsibility because these photos will be passed down for generations.
-
About half way into the wedding day when my nerves FINALLY calmed I decided that weddings aren’t as scary as they seemed. I was grabbing a photo of *everything* like some kind of photo ninja. I *could* do it!
-
Something just clicked and I knew that I would love to spend every Saturday after doing something so fun and so freakin’ HAPPY.
-
I second shot over 80 weddings over 2 years before really taking on my own wedding clients. Second shooting with so many other pro photographers helped me grow in so many ways. I took what I loved about each of them and started noting how I wanted to interact my clients, how I would treat them, how to be efficient, how to pose, the list goes on! I finally found my brand and style.
-
I can’t think of many jobs where you get to show up to a party every Saturday with new and amazing people. Every weekend is hanging out with another fun couple. Every weekend is happy. Every weekend we meet new friends and families. It’s always something to look forward to. We are really missing it right now💞
Hope everyone is staying healthy. See you soon 🎉🤞🏻
