Found out that Hannah likes to wear Christmas onesies and that she enjoys sour candy. Also, did you know you can now record Anchor episodes that are more than five minutes!? I didn’t.

Hannah has already found love for the new Oreo candy bar, and its delicious. We talk about December’s busy-ness and why it’s an overwhelming time of year. Also, did you know that me, my husband and oldest daughter all have the same December birthday!?

Hannah fries dark chocolate with chilies and I share a secret! Also, have you ever wondered how your appearance in public affects the way people perceive your business!?

The Sour Twizzlers are a hit! Also, a follow-up to Hannah’s fear of reaching out to a photographer and me being correctly credited for my photography. Do you think I was lied to?

We didn’t discuss what we’d discuss in advance. Our conversation starts with Skittles and ends with Christmas shopping ideas!

I do a lot of "talking" to business owners, creatives, wedding photographers in my marketing...but should I be shifting and talking more to those who are my ideal clients!? Call in with thoughts!

Last part of the series...all about location and where I do business! Less than hour years after moving, at least 75% of my work is no more than 45 minutes from my house. And it's on purpose!

This time it's all about what kind of work I do as an artist! I've dabbled in all kinds of photography in my eight years of business and have finally niched down to create my best work!

This time it's about stepping outside the home work environment and getting things done at a coffee shop...or stopping at the bank or grocery shopping...

Sharing my excitement for style shoots, and the connections and creativity that they bring!

I've moved my business from PA to WV and now to MD, and each time I had to re-establish myself. Sharing a couple tips about how I made it happen...and maybe you can do the same if you're on the move?

I had a bride tell me she didn't want the bridal and groom details photographed on her wedding day. This is how I got her to change her mind.
