17 states down, 33 more to go! If you can help me book a wedding in a state where I have NOT photographed a wedding, I am offering a complimentary portrait session (Attraction, Joy or Style) during my visit for the wedding or the option of one of my fine art photographs with a 24″x36″ canvas wrap or framed finish! Thanks so much!

As a photographer, I think it is incredibly important to create goals or objectives for yourself to help you improve in photography and grow as a person. What are your goals?
