Jeni was one of the first customers who booked me. We met at a Starbucks, because where else do wedding photographers who are just starting out meet with clients? I remember telling her that I had only photographed three weddings, but that I would really, really love to photograph her wedding in July, and that I had finally found my calling in life with wedding photography and I just wanted to work really hard and see if I could make my dream business come true. I probably sounded like a crazy lady. But Jeni gave me a chance and here we are seven months later. Since then, I’ve photographed five more weddings and completely filled the rest of my 2009 calendar with 30 weddings. And I haven’t even been doing this for a year. Crazy. And I never want to do anything else.
