NEW BLOG ❤️real wedding feature written for SB MOORE CO https://www.sbmoore.co/post/sweet-sophisticated-spring-wedding-for-allison-jacob

This blog featuring Allison & Jacob's wedding was an absolute pleasure to write for SB & Co.

I let the breathtaking photos by Endless Exposures Photography take the lead on storytelling.

This copywriting style was intended to sprinkle in a little more detail to the visuals and answer any questions.

As a creative, I'm a HUGE advocate of giving credit where credit is due so I made sure to incorporate vendor credit close to the visuals of their work.

Giving credit should not only be the gold standard but also inspires collaboration while complimenting a fellow creatives work.

This blog post is a smart way for SB & Co to both build a portfolio of her incredible work and drive traffic to her website to generate new leads.

The voice inside my head has always told me that I was destined to be a writer. I recall my 7th grade teacher telling me I was a gifted writer and being shocked to hear it.

While I held the highest marks in English classes through to college I was stopped dead in my tracks when I got a 69 on the Journalism grammar test. I was so ashamed that I never told anyone and immediately changed my major to business. I blamed my poor grammar on growing up bi-lingual (English/ Spanish) and my sub-par South Louisiana elementary schooling.

Since then, I reserved creative writing for client work, therapy and nightly journaling, that is until now. I am absolutely petrified to put my ideas and work out there but the great force used to silence the voice inside my head is finally exhausted and it's time to follow my dream.

My mission is to shed light on uncommonly shared learned lessons in a charming, soulful, honest and colorful way in order to inspire purposeful, earth-minded living.

I am asking you - my family, friends and community to join me on this writing journey. Follow along on social media, share my posts, subscribe to my once a month newsletter and comment or write me back. Visit www.christiebutler.com

Do you want to know what my least favorite subject to photograph is… FOOD. I have an severe internal battle to remain a professional while engulfing wildly intoxicating aromas standing over this plate. 🤣😂🤣

Going to take food pics while even the slightest bit hungry is just toxic behavior and the opposite of self care 🤣

Maybe I’m onto something because I feel I “captured” the desire for this dish JUST right! 🍗🧇 🍽
