St. Pete, FL Photographer
(select Savannah, GA dates)

Every once in awhile, I love to do a shoot just for FUN. No pressure, no payments, no one to please – just some play time where I can try new things and get the creative juices flowing.

When Rob + Kristy told me their elopement plan, I was ALL IN. From getting ready at River Street Inn downtown, to saying their vows at Wormsloe, to taking photos at Forsyth Park, to leaving in a pedicab, every moment was so perfectly “Savannah”…and so perfectly THEM.

A few weeks ago, Ansley + DJ visited Savannah on the one year anniversary of their miscarriage. They lost their son at 20 weeks to Merkle Gruber Syndrome, a fatal genetic condition, and they’ve continued to struggle with fertility ever since…

…and they chose to do a photo shoot as a memorial to their son because they know that their miscarriage is as much part of their story as their wedding day – a lifelong marriage will see ups and downs and everything in between, and it’s all worth remembering and honoring…

Lately I’ve been very focused on figuring out a morning routine that will get me into alignment before I start my day. I want to do things that make me feel joyful and peaceful before I do work, because from what I’ve been learning about how energetic vibrations of matter work (spoiler alert: we are made of matter, so our bodies have a vibration just like everything else on the planet), raising your vibration BEFORE you work will help you achieve more effortless results. Why? Because then you aren’t working against the natural flow of positive energy. You aren’t working from a negative place of fear or worry, and you aren’t trying to strong arm your way into success. Instead, you are getting into alignment with your higher purpose, and as a result everything will flow more easily.

As promised, we are wrapping up the three-part “Big Scary Questions” series today, and I’m so excited to talk about how to build your referral network!

When you are first starting out as a photographer, switching gears into a new niche, or even moving cities, you may find yourself at square one without a solid portfolio. And that’s ok! I’ve been shooting for 7 years and I found myself in this position multiple times–when I very first picked up a camera, […]

Do you have a cup of coffee in hand? Because we are about to dive head first into Part 1 of a three-week series on Big Scary Questions, and the first question is “How the heck do I even find clients?!” (Good morning! Did that wake you up?!)

Last week we talked about allowing yourself to take steps backwards in your business in order to strengthen yourself mentally, physically and emotionally for a giant leap forward. But taking time off from your business brings up some scary questions that you might also have if you are moving to a new city or venturing into a new business niche…and y’all, a few years ago I was actually was faced with ALL THREE of those business challenges at once. 

Last Monday, I briefly mentioned a particularly difficult phase of dream-chasing: the tear-streaked, anxiety-filled, doubt-fueled phase of not-enough-sleep.

I know, I really know—it’s a tough phase to be in. And there are probably many of you reading this right now who have thought recently “do I even want my dream badly enough to doing all of this!?”

I remember when Friday was the best day of the week. The anticipation of a full weekend of freedom ahead of you was almost like Christmas Eve, and it felt like Monday was ages away. 

But you know why I used to crave Fridays and dread Mondays? Because…
