Becoming a Mae B Photo Groom

Last week I talked about what it's like being a Mae B Photo bride. This week, I gotta share the love with those Mae B Photo grooms! Let's be honest, there's a lot of wedding planning tips focusing around the bride. Spoiler alert, the groom is important, too! I don't think there are enough wedding planning resources out there for the guys and I don't think enough wedding vendors are speaking directly to the groom-to-be. I definitely don't want to give the guys the shaft, so grooms, this blog is for you. If you're wondering what's in it for you when choosing a wedding photographer, I want to share with you what being a Mae B Photo groom is like. So get comfy on the couch, grab a beer or a coffee and keep on readin'....

Becoming a Mae B Photo Bride

Working with couples is the type of thing that seriously makes my heart flutter. Even more than that, I love the relationships I build with each and every one of my brides. Let's be real, I'm spending a whole lot of time with you - more so than any other wedding vendor does. We'll get to know each other throughout the process and I'll be there to help you with wedding details, vendor referrals or just as a friend giving you advice on color palettes or shoe styles...

Should You Have a First Look at Your Wedding?

First looks are all the craze right now in the wedding industry. I'll be honest, it's one wedding trend that I hope sticks around for a long time!

Though, I do see some traditional couples having a first look because the pros tend to outweigh the cons...

A Thank You to my 2017 Couples

Sometimes when you're hustling away, you don't see all of the growth and positive strides that is happening in the background. That's how I felt this year, but December is really reminding me how much I've grown as a business woman, a photographer and a person. I went into 2017 with my head down and blinders on. I just wanted to work hard and stick to my roots without comparing my journey to everyone else's. The internet is a wonderful, magical place but it also has a very awful way of making a person feel inadequate. I mean, how many of you felt the need to paint your walls white, put shiplap in your home or have mermaid hair?! I know I had a few very specific moments where I didn't feel good enough, but I had plenty of people inadvertently reminding me that I got this. This blog is dedicated to them and my wonderful 2017 couples. Thank you for trusting me and my artistry and for being open to this wonderful wedding process. Beyond that, thank you for your friendship!

So here are some of my favorite moments from this wedding season!
