When we started sharing that we were considering working together as a husband and wife team, there were many questions. Well, what about health insurance? How many weddings will you take on as a team? What is Michael going to do? What are you going to do as a team that you weren’t already doing on your own?…. And my answer was always the same “I don’t know.” I had no clue. At some point I remember telling someone that I had no idea what we were capable of together as a team because we had never tried this before. Adding Michael into KJP full time has really changed everything.
I know we’re only 8 months into this new journey but so far, it’s been amazing. I’m still uncertain about a lot of what our future holds and what we’ll be able to accomplish in this business together but I do know a few things… without Michael, I wouldn’t be able to:
– Shoot 42 weddings in one year… yikes! Pray for us!
– Host people at our home all of the time because the house wouldn’t be put together!
– Shoot 16 weddings in the next 10 weekends
– Sleep at night!
– Dream bigger
– Teach and host workshops out of our home! Ps. A New Workshop date has been released for November! You can SIGNUP HERE!!!
– Balance my time in a healthy way.
– Drive all over the east coast in one weekend… he makes all of our travel arrangements!
– Keep my emails organized
– Feel at peace with the business…
I’m so VERY thankful that I’m not doing this alone anymore. We’re still learning the ropes of being a husband and wife team but I think we can say very confidently that this is where the Lord wants us to be and we’re so thankful. With Michael by my side I feel more confident and more empowered in every aspect of this business. I’m so grateful for him and I know I don’t tell him that enough. :) So happy Labor Day to you all and if you work with your spouse, give them a big hug and a kiss and tell them you appreciate them!! :)
A year ago, we promised to find a solution for those who were complaining about their R6 raw files looking dull and lifeless in Lightroom. However, due to various circumstances, we couldn’t deliver on that promise until now.
Kelly is an incredible wedding photographer who has been shooting 90 weddings a year. I know, it sounds unbelievable, but it’s true! Kelly’s success and the volume of work she handles is truly impressive.
Your sessions should be working FOR you not against you!
