Let me introduce Jan

June 25, 2010

I’m still behind on wedding blogs and promise those will be coming very soon. Today, I’m going to depart from the usual style for a very important reason.

Throughout my business, one of the most important things I’ve learned is to just go with the flow, be pat[...]

This is the new 2500 sq ft workspace and storage[...]

However, after being a long time blog stalker of Jenni S Photography (now Jenni Grace Photography- more on that in a second...), I knew that if anyone could make me look good/ feel relaxe[...]
