Heading to Vegas!
So, I am flying out tonight for what wedding photographers refer to as the biggest must-see for our profession. I joined Wedding and Portrait Photographers International (WPPI) this past year because it’s helped with education, business, and understanding more about what it means to shoot. I’m very excited to see what this is about. However,...
Marketing & Public Relations… and the creative bite!
It’s amazing how much goes into a business that can (in it’s simplest form) be considered an art. I am fortunate to have my wife as my public relations and marketing manager.

Easy [like Sunday morning]
Well, it’s been a couple days since the last post. I am excited to have tomorrow off from work so I can focus on my photography and get some much needed projects out of the way. I have noticed that when I am dedicated to something, I want to have as much time as possible...
Thursday Thoughts
Well, there is one more day left in the week, roughly. It’s been a busy one. Found out yesterday that we will be having Monday off to observe the holiday. This is the first time I have had this day off since I was in school. I am hoping to walk around town and take...
