I’m going to be painfully and brutally honest:  This has not been a good year for me, business-wise.  That’s not to say I’m having trouble booking or not making money – quite the contrary.  This year I have more weddings on the books than I ever have, and while I am so incredibly thankful to […]

I want to preface this by saying that I DO NOT shooting maternity portraits! Despite what you are about to see, I am a wedding-only photographer.
