Unpopular opinion: Wedding couples should embrace trends and modern styles. Wear the dress you think looks cool, eat the cake you think tastes great, pose all the heck you want, so long as you're doing it for YOU. 1/2

While trends might go out of style for a bit, that's just the short term. And moments matter but they aren't the only thing that matters. The legacy of our style and what we LOVED and LIVED is a source of inspiration and a treasure of history for future generations.

Just imagine your great grandmother saying "shoot, I shouldn't have worn those mutton sleeves. What an idiot I was."

Hair is just hair. Clothes are just clothes. This is YOUR damn life, so LIVE IT.

Four entry points into photography careers: 1) wrapping yourself with christmas lights and a timer pics 2) deviantart 3) that one couples shoot you did one time with your friends/ cousin 4) dick pics

With a bonus round of - that one really good photo of your cat/kid for 400, Alex.

This is GREAT

Just got back from a meeting with a client in which she lamented that the wedding industry is so whitewashed (and I don't mean dresses) and that diversity in photos was important to her so she could feel like her heritage was important too.

What photographers and curators choose to share and choose to omit can be the difference between amplifying a voice and erasure. Even if it's on a small scale. Because what you do impacts and inspires other people, which impacts us all as a whole.

This isn't rocket science. It's not new stuff. But it's important to me.

REMINDER: 2020 is going to be the same miserable year as 2019 if you don't pry yourself off of Netflix and make some changes.

Get up. Do the thing. Stop making excuses for yourself and GET IT DONE this year.

2020: NO MORE EXCUSES.
