- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I have always been a creative and enjoyed photography as a hobby, but it wasn't until my own wedding that I knew I wanted to pursue photography as a career. Throughout the entire process it was evident how much our photographer enjoyed what she did; I was inspired by the way she was able to capture the love between me and my future husband, while also bringing out the best in us. When I decided to take the leap, she was such a great source of support and guidance, and became an inspiration for me to help others in the same way.
