Bailey and Jimmy’s wedding day was a beautiful day filled with special moments, laughter, so much joy! I knew from the moment I met them that it would be a great day, and it absolutely was. The thing that struck me the most was the warmth and gratitude that Bailey and Jimmy showed over and over on their wedding day. I honestly am not sure I have ever experienced that quite to the extend I did on their day- they went out of their way multiple times to thank us for our help that day, share what it meant to them, and see if we needed anything (on their wedding day!). And I imagine if they were doing that for their photo team, they were sharing that warmth to a lot of people.
As the sun was setting at their gorgeous venue and the dance floor opened up, I was struck by what we saw– while it was clear there were lots of dancers present, 90% of the crowd was outside talking. In big and small groups all over the pavilion, this was a group that wanted to spend time together, to get to know each other, and to catch up. And I think that tone was all set by Bailey and Jimmy and their warmth and kindness. It was a gorgeous day and I am so excited to share my many favorites!
These details were so beautiful! I LOVE this color combo so much! I adore these two!!
Congratulations Bailey and Jimmy!! I am SO happy for you both!!!

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!).
