Hi! My name is Alyssa Dyer. I am the owner and photographer at A Love in Focus Photography. I am based out of Austin, TX but also love traveling all over to shoot weddings and portraits. I fell in love with photography during my sophomore year of high school while taking a 35mm photojournalism course. During my senior year of high school, I found myself spending a lot of time in the dark room developing photos. This is when I made the decision to major in photography in college.

I went to Texas State University and in 2011 received my BFA in Fine Art Photography. While in school I stayed more on the artistic side of photography, shooting a lot of construction/conceptual based work. At the time I didn't really care to work with people as my main subject, but instead I created small whimsical settings that you wouldn't see in real life. It wasn't until after college that I decided I wanted to pursue wedding photography. Wedding photography has brought me into other people's worlds and allowed

             Hey ya’ll! My name is Jenn, and I’m the owner of J-Wil Photography.

I am a 25 year young , full time Nursing Student , and part time Photographer.I have a book collection that would rival Rory Gilmore’s (If you don’t know who this is, I’m not sure we can be friends). I live on an 80+ acre farm in a dust speck of a town in Indiana, and I am the proud ‘momma’ of a five week old calf named Dozer.

I picked up my “first” camera about five years ago- taking your stereotypical ‘outdoorsy’ photos of my dog, flowers, and landscapes. It wasn’t until three years ago that I started taking photographs of people, and venturing into the ‘professional’ (aka…getting paid-as I like to jokingly say) side of photography. I am a 99% self-taught (a big shout out to all the you-tubers who helped me on my way) natural light photographer. I started out by dabbling in all areas (newborn, senior, maternity, family, etc.) When I took on a second shooter position for another photographer I fell in love

My name is Jared, I'm a father of 7 children- 4 girls and 3 boys with another little one on the way in February of 2017. My wife is a rockstar in case you hadn't guessed. You can say our life is a bit crazy, some even think my wife and I are crazy for having such a large family but we wouldn't change a single thing about anything God has blessed us with thus far in our almost 15 years of marriage. Family is everything to us and maybe that's just one reason we became photographers. We hear all too often about how life is short and with everything happening around the world at the moment that idea has become a permanent caveat of the joy we get to experience here on earth. After graduating college with a 5 year architecture degree and a 4 year degree in design arts I decided that being my own boss and making my own hours would allow our family to experience life more fully together.

I am a wedding photographer serving the Twin Cities and Wisconsin areas, and I am originally from Switzerland. I am available for destination weddings.

I have always been an artist in some ways. I need to create in order to be happy.
My first real camera that I bought was on a weekend trip to Paris in 2005 with my now wife.
I had enough of snapshots and thought that Paris would be the perfect place to take photography more serious. So instead of just shooting the obvious, I took street photography shots, arty building shots and tons of pictures of unique scenes. I fell in love with it.
Of course, the learning curve was a little harder then because everything was still analog and you had to buy expensive film.

I worked as an interior designer for nearly 20 years and did work in China, Dubai, France, USAand Switzerland. The job was my passion but something was missing.

In 2007 I left everything behind me that I dearly loved to support my wife who wanted to move back to the USA. (Wisconsin

Your wedding stationery is a big part of the to-do list for planning your big day. The invitation suite leaves a big impression on your guests, so be sure to take the time to do it right. Don‰'t fall for these commonly made mistakes, and miss out on having the perfect wedding invitations you imagined. It‰'s just as important knowing how to avoid common invitation problems, as it is knowing how to handle them. Follow our advice below and you‰'ll be sure to overcome any invitation issue.

Mistake 1: Including too much information on the main invitation

Finding a balance between your design and the context of information is important. Crowding the invitation with too much information such as ceremony and reception details or having too much of a design may distract your guest from the important information. When selecting a design, pick one element from your wedding theme to feature (i.e. color scheme or pattern or monogram). Next, plan out what your key wedding information is and use only

Hello Everyone! My name is Megan and I'm the main photographer here at Nutmeg Photography. I am a lifestyle and wedding photographer out of Edmonton, Alberta. My business is still a baby, It's only been up and running for 2 years now, but I've been a photographer for much longer! I first fell in love with photography in my Jr.High comm tech class. I got my first taste of photoshop and using a DSLR Camera and I've been hooked ever since!

I graduated from NAIT's Photographic Technology program, where I learned so much from all the wonderful instructors there. Although this program gave me so much knowledge I'm still learning so much everyday.

I am considered a lifestyle photographer, which means I love photographing the candid moments between my clients. In a natural environment, with natural lighting. Which could be outside in a park or in your living room. I have used off camera flash, studio lights and everything in between, I just find my clients are much more happy and comfortable

HI there! I am so honored and excited to be here! So a little about me and who I am as a photographer. Originally from Southern California. I am married to the love of my life and high school sweetheart who has blessed our family with the opportunity for me to be a stay at home mommy to the silliest little boys you will ever see. They are 4 and 2 and they are the true driving passion behind my photography. I quickly realized after they were born how quickly the little moments happened and were gone. Photography gave me a way to freeze little snippets of time and cherish them forever.

I am a natural light lover and I am sure like most photographers, I  am OBSESSED with golden hour. I love the way the light just kisses the ground ever so softly and just adds a glow to everything in its path. My boys and I love to "chase the sunset", when one of us notices how gorgeous the sky is looking, we drive to our special spot and catch the glorious rays melting over the fields and farms. I just adore

Organization. Thoroughness. Patience. These are three words to keep in mind when it comes to managing the RSVPs for your big day. As not everyone is an event planner or has a Type A personality, we‰'ve put together some helpful hints for the successful collecting of your RSVPS.

Step 1: Organization

First things first‰: create a spreadsheet of your guest list! This will be your main point of reference for keeping tabs on who‰'s responded, who has not responded (yes, you will have to follow-up) or has responded but did not leave a name or a name you can‰'t read (and yes, this will happen.)

Your spreadsheet should contain the following information: Guest‰'s First & Last name, their mailing address (physical or electronic), Menu choice (if applicable), Number of invited guests, Number Attending, and their table number. As the RSVPs trickle in you will be able to keep tabs on each guest‰'s response in a neat orderly fashion. As an added bonus this will also be helpful at the end of the wedding

Hello Everyone, My Name is Kayla Besanson and the proud owner of Kayla Marie Photography. I started this wonderfully scary journey in 2005 when my son was born and a friend encouraged me to purchase my first camera. It was a Canon Rebel, I fell in love with my images and wanted to learn everything I could about photography and editing. I started taking classes in graphic design and began working for Life Touch doing Senior pictures and learned so much, but it just wasn't my ideal environment. After only 3 months with my camera I was offered a job with an agency of Google and dove into my career. I specialized in architectural photography and loved every minute of it, but found myself wanting to be more challenged. I left the agency and started my own business working with seniors, girls mostly, in a more relaxed environment.

I I like to have fun and joke during my shoots, while I learn about these girls. I realized very quickly that there are so many young girls who are self-conscious and

Hey, Guys! I'm Catherine Kunkel, the girl behind the lens at Catherine K. Photography. I create (mostly) natural light photos for clients in Louisville, Kentucky as well as the Northern Kentucky area and Cincinnati, Ohio. My sessions range from engagements and weddings, to seniors and families.

While I love them all, my favorite sessions to shoot have to be engagements. There's just something so awesome about being able to document two people in love, about to embark on a huge journey together.

I'm a self-taught photographer, and my story is similar to many other self-taught photogs; what was initially just a hobby quickly grew into something more as I continued to learn and enjoy the art of picture-making.

It began with me chasing my toddlers around the house with my entry level DSLR. I'd then post the photos to my personal facebook page, and slowly friends started asking if I could take some pictures of THEIR toddlers. Towards the end of 2012, I decided to create a business page
