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!! :)
Oh where do I begin? This wasn’t just another wedding for me. This was a legacy KJ Wedding and I have been looking forward to it ever since my first email from Danny and Megan!
I’m really excited about this YouTube video because I know that it resonates with ALL photographers who photograph PEOPLE!!
Have you ever walked into a client experience and realized “oh wow, this is not what I was expecting?” ….
