Three weeks ago, I sat down to plan our Christmas photos. I opened Pinterest. Saw 47 different Christmas aesthetic styles. Felt immediately overwhelmed. Classic red and green? Modern minimalist white? Vintage nostalgic? Rustic farmhouse? Elegant gold? Cozy hygge? Outdoor winter wonderland? I wanted them all. But hiring photographers for even three different styles would cost … Read more
Two weeks after my daughter Emma was born, I got a text from a newborn photography studio: “Your session is in 3 days! $495 package includes 2 hours and 25 edited photos.” I stared at that number. $495. We’d just spent thousands on hospital bills. Diapers alone were costing $80 a month. And they wanted … Read more

Three months before my wedding, I got the photography quote: $8,500 for eight hours of coverage. That included ceremony, reception, and 200 edited photos. I nearly cried. We’d already blown our budget on the venue. My dress cost more than expected. Catering was $12,000. We simply didn’t have $8,500 left for photography. But I refused … Read more
Last New Year’s Eve, I spent three hours getting ready. Hair perfectly styled. Makeup flawless. Sequin dress that cost $200. Heels that hurt immediately. I looked amazing. For approximately 20 minutes. Then I checked the photos my friends took at the party. Terrible lighting. Red eyes. Awkward angles. My $200 dress looked cheap. My professional … Read more
