For Photog’s | Email Identity

If you’ve received an email from me chances are you know I’m a rambler and an excessive exclamation point junky. It’s how I am.. Probably because I’m a rambler and an excited person by nature when it comes to photography (I’m a tad bit more tame and introverted in my personal life). I have sat […]

Bride Tip | Finding Your Photog Match

It’s like shopping for the right pair of jeans. They need to have a good fit, you have to like the wash, and they have to be in your right price range but all things aside, you have to like the style. Jean shopping = Photographer shopping. Goodness gracious I hate jean shopping. I had […]

Bride Tip | Wedding Day Details

I had this shoot last weekend (my own portraits mind you – such a weirdo) and didn’t notice anything weird in the original […]

Tutorial | How To Create A Photoshop Elements Collage!

Due to a URL change and complications with the switch I have decided to re-post this post to re-introduce it to Google (I slipped from the front page to no page when switching URL’s…Boo) I started my research at 3PM this afternoon.

Taking The Day Off…

I was on my way to work this morning and realized it was Monday & I didn’t have an article scheduled to post (shoot).. I also typically like to have 3 or 4 drafts sitting so that publishing is easier and I don’t fall behind. However, I dwindled my draft pile down and ran out […]

I decided on a Lens…Drum Roll..

I was in a pickle the past couple of weeks. I really wanted to add another lens to the collection and I just wasn’t sure of which one to go with. I published a lens dream sheet article to express my debacle. Well I thought long and hard about the decision. I ultimately decided to […]
