November Recap

You're probably wondering who this cutie is in the picture with me. She's my adorable daught-- er, I mean niece! My niece!!! I got to hold her so much last weekend. 😉 I have the funniest surprise story ever. My husband and I schemed to surprise my mom on her birthday last weekend. We bought tickets-- try justfly.com. Amazing deals!!!-- flew in Friday afternoon, and showed up in wigs and disguises to Outback Steakhouse in Pittsburgh. My husband started playing Happy Birthday on the guitar and my kiddos and I joined in singing with him. It was the best feeling ever to see the look of shock, happiness, and tears unfold in a few short seconds on their faces. The.best.surprise.weekend.ever...

November was such a fun month for me! I got to cook my 8th Thanksgiving meal this year, with all the fixings. I totally went for Cracker Barrell's pies from scratch for our desserts this year too. They were soo good!

November is my highest edit month in fall to date, with 34 weddings to edit! Phew!

I'm getting ready for my slower season, with courses, goals, books, and fun family time planned until the next busy season. Mine usually starts back up in February for the crazy busy season again. My average slow season consists of about 1-4 weddings a week, which gives me 2-3 days of work, and is a nice break from 10-12 weddings a week, 5-6 days/wk.
I say it all the time, but I love my job, y'all. It's such a privilege to be able to be on photographer's teams, cheering them on, laughing at the funny moments they captured, & tearing up at the emotional moments as well. I can't explain how exciting it is to open a catalog of photos and seeing the day unfold through someone else's viewpoint. It's awesome and rewarding to be a part of on a small scale. The ability it gives me to be home with my children is also the best part. I don't have to miss the important parts and that makes me smile. 😃🤓

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 ...
