Hibernating Trends: Word Up

Wording on photos expresses emotion in a new way. Adding the date or a special saying can make it individual to each couple. It's trendy and timeless!

Confirming addresses

Just an FYI:
I do keep all valid contracts on file with contact information. But when I send out your photos I will send you a message to confirm your current address. This is because 8/10 of my couples move, change names, email addresses, contact information directly after they wed.
I prefer to not send it to your old address on accident and get lost in the mail. As this has happened so many times when I didn't ask.

I thought this was obvious but apparently it has been taken as if I don't use the information on the contract and am a careless contract keeper, when indeed I do have them.

Thanks everyone! :)

Limited internet and email

Congratulations Bryona!

Just wanted to congratulate my niece Bryona who job shadowed with me for Out of the Ordinary last summer. She passed her graduation project with an A and impressed her teachers and the class. I'm so proud of her! Maybe there is photography in her future? Nice job Bryona! I hope you enjoyed your experience and has opened a window for you in all avenues of life.

Thanks to all the brides who were flexible and encouraging in her success and allowing her to attend the weddings!
