And this is why it’s important to make sure you stand on your beliefs in your business… as long as it doesn’t harm anyone.

But anyways, I love being able to photograph families throughout the years and if you are wondering if I photograph families I do I just don’t post a lot of that content because a lot of of my clients to ask I do not post their children’s faces.

Especially now with the dangers of posting your kids online … it’s a really scary time.

But anyway, I’m glad I get to put moments for real families and I’m just grateful so many people continuously come back every year to book sessions for their families… so thank you to everyone who trust me with those beautiful special chapters and memories couldn’t be here today without you 💜✨

as a wedding photographer, I never expect a tip… like ever.

I think tipping culture has gotten out of hand.
But if it does come my way, I’ll gratefully accept it.
But I just wanted all of my clients to know it is not expected.

You’ve already paid me thousands of dollars to do the job you hired me for, so with or without a tip I’m going to do my damn best to make sure you have the most stunning photos to stare at on your walls 💜✨

Hope you enjoyed the bloopers…. 😆

I am doing my best to create more than I consume and that’s exactly what I am putting myself through right now on this trip and learning my voice and how to use it and I hope that I can connect with other photographers out there and help them with their businesses as I have been in this business for over 15 years And honestly, I’ve just been afraid to talk straight to the camera and terrified just to say something wrong but it’s all good.

We’re all learning here and that’s the cool part about community and hopefully this video helps anyone that is trying to figure out how to clear space from their laptops, especially if they edit from their laptop like I do instead of like a big computer home system.

So if you have questions or need help, feel free to leave a comment and if you know exactly what this is called feel free to leave a comment as well.

I was taught by another photographer yearsss ago and I’ve done it ever since.

also, I am posting a lot more of my travels on TikTok so if you want to tune in on there, it’s the same handle, so come laugh with me over there as I’m learning how to show up for myself and my business.
