Washington Wedding Photographers | Who are you inspired by?

Jan

25

It’s no secret who I’m inspired by and learn from. Most of you know my mentor is Kylee Ann, Who I gather most of my help and tips from and is my go-to for all (most) things marketing. I am all about my Amy & Jordan Posing course and business/shooting tips. Jasmine Star is my lifestyle inspo and Jenna Kutcher is my cheerleader. Ben Sasso reminds me to shoot whatever the frack I want sometimes and Emma Rose reminds me I’m right where I should be, but can be even more with the right tactics. Jessica Whitaker reminds me to be unapologetically ME and to sync even deeper finding the richness of my personality. Hope Taylor reminds me there are no limits, and Tyler Rye reminds me my ideal clients will come as I show what I want as an artist more and more clearly.

 
It has taken several years of searching to find “my team” of supporters, inspirers, and rolemodels and there is always room for more in my book.
 
Take what you love, leave what you don’t. My business and I are a combination of all these people and their businesses. Sometimes leaning more to one than the other from season to season. My husband literally knows all of those names above as if they were my BFF’s.
 
Think about it. What is the first thing professional athletes do??? They study the masters. Previous gold medalists. They know their biggest pit falls and biggest triumphs.
 
As a competitive musician growing up, I ALWAYS had “listening Homework” and had to report to multiple coaches on whose work I was studying multiple times a week. Perhaps this molded my behavior here, but there were obvious results when I was listening intentionally to the masters.
 
If you don’t have some business models/pros to look up to, I strongly suggest you find some! Feel free to look up mine or drop some of your favorites not mentioned below!

Hi! How are you? Thinking of lots of my clients lately and hoping you’re doing well no matter where life has taken you! I’ve been laying low. Loving on my kiddos, friends, sisters, and partners. They’re all taking great care of me, too! Working my booty offf. Trying to eat healthy and navigate adulting more […]

The in between

Life has been very romantic lately. Unknown and confusing and both flighty and grounded all at once. I remember being 14 and seeing my entire life by your side. Life is wild. I remember a water bottle and abandoned bleachers. I remember axe body spray and the way I had never been kissed. I know […]

Nirvana & I think of you

I hope you know better than to think I’d want to be anywhere but here right now. It was true on NYE and it’s true right now in my car outside the café. This may have felt seamless. Too seamless. Happenstance. But I’m here on purpose, now. I see your soft heart and I see […]

I hope you know better

You’ll walk through a glittering white veil, uncharacteristically soft compared to what you’ll find behind it. It has no need to keep you out. You quickly realize it’s the aura within that turns most around. The texture disorients. I’ll already be inside. What do you see? Upon first impression, you’re in a desert. Interesting considering […]
