Michael and I loved our 2015 wedding season! We loved it because we love our KJ Brides and Grooms but we ALSO loved it because we had so many opportunities to shoot at new-to-us venues!! Woohoo! This is a guaranteed way to stay fresh and creative!! It’s like a fresh canvas for me! Now don’t get me wrong… I LOVE shooting at my favorite venues over and over again but every now and then, it’s fun to have something new!
