Wedding season

Guess what. I recently had my first client meeting and I'll be shooting a wedding in April. I'm really excited! The bride is a good friend of my sister, who happens to be a bridesmaid. Also, my mother will be helping with some wedding coordinating. In addition to shooting the wedding, I'll be doing a bridal portrait session, an engagement session, and some other fun things too. I'm looking forward to the experience, and praying that everything goes smoothly.

Modeling gig

My cousin, Colin, used this photo for his modeling portfolio after I shot it back in November. I was really honored that he and his mom liked the photo that much. But the coolest part is that with it, he was able to book a print ad modeling gig with Disney World! I'm so excited for him (and also for me)! :) I definitely feel special that something I shot was good enough to help get him work. It's little things like this that make me think that maybe I really can do this - maybe I can be a professional photographer.
