There are a variety of situations in which a background may look perfect in person but isn’t ideal for photos. If you haven’t read my blog on lighting over location, head over there first to get a better grasp on the content of this post. Sometimes, we see such beauty and assume it will translate […]
Wedding Timeline’s- I get tons of questions about wedding timeline’s. I assembled the most frequently asked questions and answered them all in one place! If you have a question that I didn’t answer, comment below with your question and I’ll answer the best I can. Do I even need a wedding timeline? Yes! Having an […]
So, he’s popped the question, you said YES! You’ve booked your engagement session and now you are wondering, what the heck am I supposed to wear? Where should we take our photos? What all do I need to know? I got you, I got you! This blog is specific to my clients, if you’ve booked […]
Always. I always choose lighting over location. This is a strange concept to most and I totally get that. My hope is that by the end of this blog post you’ll see why I do this with every session, every wedding, every time. I truly believe in the power of education and knowledge. When I […]
