Show Notes

In this weeks episode of the podcast I take you with me to my last wedding of the year. I walk you through how I get ready, what I do before I walk in, I let you hear me pose the guys, photograph the dress, ceremony, bridal portraits, and then we wrap the day with lessons learned. If you shoot weddings don’t miss this episode!
