Featured: Plain Dealer Bridal Issue

I'm SO, SO honored to have been asked to be a part of The Plain Dealer's 2013 bridal guide. Part of me feels like I'm still the newbie in Cleveland, so to have my name in Cleveland's biggest news source is kind of surreal. Especially since I was a journalism student back in college. I loved being able to share my thoughts on how to select a wedding photographer and get great photos on your big day. And hey, look! One of my favorite photos of the super good looking Nicole and Chris Travis made it in! :) Check out the bridal guide if you have a chance!

101 in 1001: #36 Get Published.

I opened my eyes and contemplated going back to sleep, but as soon as I remembered that it was 11/12, I jumped out of bed and ran to my computer. Today is the day I get my first photography feature, and I couldn't be more excited about it! When Lauren from Every Last Detail e-mailed me back to say yes, she'll publish Elizabeth and Kevin's beautiful backyard wedding, I did a little happy dance and ran to tell Nathan. I still feel like a newbie in this industry and sometimes I'm completely hard on myself, wallowing in self-pity that I will never be as good as X or I will never be as successful as Y. Today I'm going to forget that negative stuff and just be giddy that I see my fabulous clients and my name on a big-time blog.

If you have time today, head over the Every Last Detail and check out how good Elizabeth and Kevin are making that blog look!
