30 Wedding Tips!

One year ago today I started writing wedding tips on my blog. Since then a lot of things have changed for me. Perhaps the biggest change is my adding food photography into my daily routine. I'm loving my work as a photographer & blogger/tweeter/Facebooker for Stonewall Kitchen but I'm determined to not give-up my blog! My wedding business has been cut way back & I now only shoot a few a year, but I still love it.
