Shooting Stacy was SUCH a joy for many reason. 1.) The camera loves her. 2.) She is so natural and stunningly beautiful. 3.) She’s talented, a dancer, a singer and a actress and she represents a part of my past. Stacy is the younger sister of a dear friend who I hadn’t seen since elementary […]
2011 has been a CRAZY year full of really fun and exciting things. As I worked on this post I was amazed by all the things Isaiah and I had accomplished. You forget all of the things you can jam into 12 months until you take a few minutes to reflect. Today as I was […]
One of the best business decisions Ike and I ever made was this Street Team. These young people are amazing and its so fun getting to know them and them and the things that make them tick at one of the most important times of their life. Tre is a senior at Todd Beamer high […]
Meet Brittany. Absolutely stunning ball of spice, energy and laughter. One of our shortest members of the street team, I didn’t realize until she showed up to her session in sandals and being vertically challenged myself, I towered over her.

What happens when the thing you never thought would happen does? What happens when you unexpectedly get sick? What happens when someone you love falls ill or even worse dies? What happens when a natural disaster hits and destroys everything you've worked so hard to build? What happens when you become ill or paralyzed and are unable to run your business? What happens when you find yourself in a global pandemic and you're unable to work for months at a time? What are you going to do?

When we first started shooting, we couldn't afford many of the opportunities and workshops that were available for newbie photographers to learn and grow, so we really utilized the free communities online and locally to building relationships and to learn the trade. It was those years that shaped who we are as people in this industry and have helped us to value the journey.
