Personal Post: Recap from June!

Hi there! I've enjoyed a few weeks off from blogging/sharing. While I was off, so much has happened, both good and something sad. Let me take you down memory lane for the past few weeks with some pictures. Some are mobile and some are from my camera, so bear with any low quality pictures.
My family came to visit from Pennsylvania. I got to meet my niece and she is adorable!















I had a super busy editing schedule, but work was good. I met a few new brides, and booked a few more weddings. So excited! I also did some updated headshots. Thanks, sister!





We put in a new pool liner, did some yard work, finished painting our house, got in swimming, hugs, cuddles, etc. It was awesome! We had a wonderful 4th of July with family and friends. We got to see some fireworks at Possum Kingdom too!








One of the sad times for me was our little min pin Bruiser was run over by a car. Our family has had our furry little guy for 5 years. So it came as a shock one night that we found him run over. Min pins are known for escaping. And Bruiser has been known to have his escape moments. We honestly thought someone found him and took him. So after the shock and sadness we decided that we wanted to bury him under one of our trees.






I know a lot of people discourage disconnecting from social media and blogging and say we should be posting on a daily and weekly basis, but I think it is good to not do the norm all the time. To not define yourself by what other people say you should do in your business and personal life. So, for me, I want to break free from the norm. Be honest. Be real. Genuine. Share when I feel passionate about something and not stress myself out over deadlines for blogging and posting. I love it and I love sharing, but I love simplicity and loving my family first. Sometimes in life we need a little disconnect and break! That's what I did and I'm feeling much more refreshed! Have a wonderful weekend! ;-)

A Barnyard Wedding Under the Stars- Sparklers & Spurs- Jerry & Casey

I am catching up on blogging after a busy season and wonderful Thanksgiving with family! This wonderful couple's wedding photos were waiting for them to come back from their honeymoon in October, I shared their sneak peeks on facebook the next day, and I'm just sharing on the blog now, so bear with me! It was a much needed break from social media and enjoying family coming in from PA. :-)  Jerry & Casey had an amazing wedding day with a beautiful first look and stunning views! I thought a Barnyard wedding under the stars was the perfect way to describe their wedding day! I've always wanted some hay bales in wedding pictures and got just the treat. I loved everything about their wedding day and the special love and care I saw they had for each other.

How to Find the Right Private Photo Editor: Part One

   Hi again! Last week, I talked about the 10 signs you need to outsource to a private photo editor. This week I'm going to give you a few tips on how to find the right editor for you! :-) Let's dive right in! 1.The first question you should ask yourself is: What IS your editing style? Bright and Airy, Colorful with a pop/contrast, Film style, Natural and Classy, Moody or Dark,? Do you use presets? Have you made your own preset? Do you like warmer or cooler, creamy skin tones? Maybe you need help developing a style you would like to use consistently. These are all great things to think about before you start looking for an editor. The key to keeping your creative style with an editor is to have one and to implement it. If you are still in the process of learning your creative style, I help photographers do that and some editors I know can do that too! No worries! Developing your style in the beginning can help you stay on track with the style you want. 2. Do you edit ...
