A lot of time and effort go into finding new clients. I would rather spend that time and effort on you. Advertising is expensive and instead of paying them I would rather pay you. I started a program awhile ago. The Rewards Program. For each referral that becomes a client I will give you $15 gift card and after you refer 3 brides, you will get a $25 gift card. Gift cards can help you pay for reprints or an album. You can also put them towards a trash the dress session or a baby session. I just got the gift cards in and they are beautiful. Don’t forget to tell them to mention your name so I know to reward you.

Happy Monday All. Saturday's wedding was very special to me. One of my dear friends got married. Her ceremony was outside at Celebration's in Imperial. She was so worried all day about it raining. As soon as her mom walked down the aisle it started to rain a tiny bit. The people at Celebration's were on the ball. As soon as it started they ran around and gave all the guests umbrellas. Once my friend was down the aisle it started to rain a bit harder. 5 minutes later it stopped and it was very sunny. It rained just enough to cool everyone off. After I toke them around the grounds to do some photos. About 7:00 after all the important photos were done she told me to put my camera away and join the party. We had a blast.
