Ryan and Andrea’s fall wedding at Glencliff Manor in Rustburg, Virginia was such a fun celebration! It started raining just as I was leaving my house, but by the time I got to the venue, the rain was already gone. Talk about starting the day off right! We were able to take all of the […]

Hugh and Sarah’s fall engagement photos are some of my favorites! They are such a sweet couple, I could photograph them all day long. I normally tell my couples that the first 5-10 minutes of the session are usually a little awkward, and that’s totally normal. We need a couple of minutes to warm up! […]

I’ve received a lot of questions recently about how I optimize my blog posts for SEO (Search Engine Optimization). The reason for that is because I basically built my entire photography business on blogging. I had no former marketing experience, yet I started booking up my calendar with weddings because of my online presence.   […]

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.
