Kati and Shawn’s wedding day was sunny, warm, and absolutely beautiful, and told the true story of connecting families and lives together. I loved every moment of it, but most specifically all the part where their girls were involved– sharing what they know of these two together, giving advice about their marriage, pouring sand together to form a piece of family artwork. I saw 2 daughters who are excited about their growing family– as they should be, because Kati and Shawn are brilliant together. They are fun and sweet and ultimately both of them have HUGE hearts that are full love to give, to each other and to those around them. It is really beautiful to watch and be a part of! Their wedding day was so easy and simple– a small crowd of those they love the very most, and all in one place at the lovely Erin’s Pavilion. It suited them perfectly, and it was a complete honor to be a witness to the start of their marriage together! Here are some o fmy many favorites!

I love little more than a weeping willow…add a couple in love and I am in heaven!

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!).
