WEDDING WEDNESDAY really doesn’t have to do with “Weddings”…. and I used to let that bother me. The thought of it used to make me cringe. But really, what’s the big deal? It some way, shape, or form… you can relate almost everything to “Weddings”! Right? There are just some some things I want to share and the only time they can fit into the blog schedule is on WEDNESDAYS! So today’s post is about being a good wife. (See, I’d told you I would relate it somehow!) I’m trying. I actually went grocery shopping while Michael was away in Panama for a mission trip.
Grocery shopping seems like it should be a natural part of life that everyone makes time for…. but not me. I put it off until we have mayo and croutons left in the kitchen. It’s really a very bad habit. I get side tracked and my computer calls my name from upstairs and once I enter my office, I don’t come out…. for a long time. I should be able to do laundry while I work from home…. but even that is hard for me. I forget about it! I become so entranced with what I’m working on that I forget everything else exists! And my mother says that this is called perfectionism….she’s probably right. So since I have realized that this is an issue, I’ve been trying to get better at my multitasking! This is where the crock pot comes in! I recently saw a Cheesy Potato Soup recipe on Pinterest and it said “throw it in and let it sit for 6 hours”. Now THAT is cooking that I can accomplish!! So when I went to the grocery store while Michael was away, I bought the ingredients I needed and I made Cheesy Potato Soup…. and it tastes AMAZING…. and I’m SO PROUD OF MYSELF!!! I’m the girl with NO cooking skills whatsoever! So this is huge for me! And to celebrate this special time in my life… I’m going to share the recipe so other workaholic photographers who have husbands that would really like to have food in the house can make it too!!!

And how cute are these glasses that my cousin made for our wedding gift?! Very FALL! I love it!
Have you ever tried to sit down with your spouse to talk about dreams, goals, and vision—only for it to turn into frustration or misalignment? If so, you’re not alone. Vision casting in marriage is hard because it brings up deeper fears, beliefs, and unspoken dynamics that many couples don’t even realize are at play.
Success—it’s a word we hear all the time. But what does it really mean? Is it about financial security? Status? Owning a dream home or taking extravagant vacations?
When you think about your business, do you see it as simply a job—or something more?
Today, I’m diving into an experience that was nothing like I anticipated: my digital detox in December. If you’ve ever considered taking a break from the noise of the online world, you might relate to my journey—the good, the surprising, and the, well, completely unplanned.
The wedding industry has faced unique challenges recently, with inflation affecting budgets and couples cutting costs. If you’re a wedding photographer feeling the pinch, don’t worry—2025 doesn’t have to be a slow year.
Life has a way of surprising us, doesn’t it? Over the last few months, I’ve been on a medical rollercoaster that I never saw coming.
