This, our last summer wedding for the next 8 weeks in a crazy twist of brilliant summer scheduling, was an absolutely stunning day in so many ways! It was a hot one, but it was so beautiful. Katie and Trevor are warm and inviting, and their entire wedding day presented just the same. A kind and loving bridal party, sweet and welcoming parents, and an engaging array of family and friends each so happy to be celebrating Katie and Trevor.
We began at the beautiful BJ Grand Salon, who has a lovely private area for bridal parties that worked so well! Katie was calm, excited, and beautiful!! Her and her ladies and sweet mama just got to hang out and chat for quite a while because their stylists and makeup artists were so on top of the schedule (which is amazing), and it was so fun to see them all interact together! The day just continued to get sweeter and sweeter with exchanged letters, Trevor walking each grandma and mother down the aisle himself, and Katie making the way down the aisle, both with tears in their eyes, to finally marry the love of her life. Every moment was thoughtful and warm (and not just in weather!), just like Katie and Trevor. It was such a beautiful day and I can’t wait to share my favorites!
I’m a bit obsessed with these doors!!! Beauties!! Married! Favorite! They are just such a classically beautiful couple!!! Favorite! Full gallery coming soon! Congrats to Mr and Mrs Anslyn!!!

You're in the right place! As a past high school teacher, educating others is my life's work and a HUGE part of my business! I have been teaching moms and hobbyists how to use their camera from first purchasing it all the way to coaching them into businesses of their own, and I'd love to help you as well, wherever you are (and whatever camera you have!).
I'm so glad you are here! Teaching Photographers and other small business owners how to run more joyful, successful, and profitable businesses is one of my favorite parts of my business! I specialize in working with photographers to make their goals a reality (or figure out what their goals should be in the first place!).
