You could say I had the BEST seat in the house at this last Saturdays Proposal!

Peppermint Mocha Martinis in the “Mint Room” filled with over 60 family and friends for a surprise celebration 🎊 The Sweetest people and Peppermint “Mint to be Themes” for this Peppermint loving photographer had me in heaven!

I make a plan, set a goal, keep the focus, drill down and sometimes forget to soak it up! Yesterday was an amazing creative reset and even though It’s busy season I decided it was time to make time for ME and remind myself why I picked up a camera in the first place!
-
Don’t forget in the midst of the hustle and bustle it’s easy to burn out if you don’t schedule time for breaks! ♍️

Thank you so much for amazing headshot swaps! .co (edited by me)

During a Bride chat I had earlier today I was asked if they would be getting some black and whites in their gallery along with the Colored ones? 🤭 You know my ass was giggling with JOY before I said.. oh Darling you betcha! Fun fact it’s a dream of mine to deliver an ALL BLACK & WHITE WEDDING if anyone ever had this desire I’m your woman! LOVE me some black and whites!
✨ What’s a Bridal Session?
-
Many times during my inquire chats I get asked what the use of a Bridal Session is.. Welp…
-
A Bridal Session is a shoot focused just on YOU, your wedding gown, and your desired look. It can be a mock up for your day (hair and make up trial) or a completely different look from your wedding day! So maybe your doing earth tones for your wedding but thought it would be fun to spice it up with a zesty color pallet for your bridal session! Let’s do it!
-
These are great because it gives you more than the typical 10 shots you will get with your wedding gallery. After all the thought and time you spend on your bridal details it’s nice to spend a little extra on capturing you enjoying and dancing in it right?!
-
Bridals are typically done 2-3 weeks before your wedding date and delivered with your wedding gallery so your lover doesn’t see them 😆
-
My Whole Lotta Poet Package comes with a complimentary Bridal Session or you can simply add it on to any other package!
