Couple graduation photos are so special! Graduating with your husband feels like the kind of full circle moment you’ll tell your kids about one day. And I’m so excited I got to capture this milestone for Mary and Riley. We met in front of DeMoss Hall at Liberty University, one of those classic campus spots […]

The HoneyBook scheduling tool is one of my favorite features. There’s nothing more frustrating as a business owner than juggling multiple tools just to book one client. 😬 Calendly for scheduling your sessions, a separate invoice system, PDF proposals, email reminders, session reminders… you get the idea. Managing it all is messy, time consuming, and […]

I started my business after getting my first DSLR camera as a wedding gift — I knew next to nothing about photography, but I loved it.
In the beginning, I was afraid to tell anyone that I was starting a photography business. I thought they wouldn’t take me seriously, and might even make fun of me.
The thing is: now I talk to photographers all the time who are dealing with the same insecurities I had when I was just starting out — Turns out, ain’t nobody got time to be afraid of their dreams!
That’s why I teach the same systems and formulas that made me into the confident photographer I am today to photographers just like you.
