So typically I do my sneak peek’s on FB, which include 1-3 images of the event to get folks excited and inspired & then a follow up on the blog with a additional 5-7 images to tie them over until all of the post-processing is completed. Might not be the best way to do things/but […]

I met Isabel a year ago at my first event at Christian Faith Center—we conversed over makeup and quickly became friends. The Boyds were my second attempt at a photoshoot last year—you can go […]
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.
