Lots of big things are happening for my business this year that I am extremely excited about! Two of them I am debuting on my improved website today! My very talented cousin and friend Kevin Carmack is branching out and pursuing commercial and wedding videography. So we collaborated for one of his first commercial assignments (outside of his regular job) to create a short video for my photography business! I say collaborated, but really, he made it amazing. I was SO nervous and uncomfortable in front of the camera, which came as a bit of a shock to me. I guess I’ve just gotten extremely comfortable behind it. But he helped to calm me down and assure me that I was going to come across as myself. I had Kevin create this video for me so that my potential clients have a chance to get to know me before our first meeting. I wanted them to have a sneak peek into my personality, what inspires my photography, and the experience that I provide my clients with. I am thrilled with the end result and hope that you will be too!

Kevin is accepting inquiries for wedding videography! So if you’re interested you can contact me for now and I will direct you to him until he finalizes his website, which I will announce when it’s complete. If you’re a bride looking for a photographer and/or videographer in the Maryland area, Kevin and I are a great team!

Below are two screen shots from my video.

He videoed the portion above in my dining room. I love how it turned out! It’s such a true reflection of my style and who I am. It is crucial to my business to share with perspective clients my style as well as my personality. We NEED to click. (ha ha, pun intended!) But, really, we do. Brides and grooms spend more time with their photographer and videographer than any other wedding vendor. And since my job is to capture their love, their story, and their future life events, we need to feel like friends so that they can be comfortable with me. That’s why I have structured the wedding experience with me to build that friendship and comfort level before your wedding day.

I included the screen shot below because I just really like this angle that Kevin captured. Plus, it’s at one of my favorite wedding venues – Engedi Estate!

The other addition to my website that I am so excited to debut is my Preferred Vendor list. This list doesn’t encompass all of my favorite vendors yet, but it’s a great start! All of these businesses or organizations are local to Carroll and Frederick County, Maryland. They are extremely talented professionals operated by some of the best people in the world! Please stop by their websites and connect with them on social media to experience their amazing talents and get inspired for your own wedding!

The video and preferred vendor page helps me to stay true to myself because I am opening myself up online more by sharing my heart and who I am. Part of my mission is to encourage and help other businesses. Adding the preferred vendor page is just one more step in that direction. I’m thankful to say that so many of these businesses have included me on their preferred vendors list, so it’s about time I created a preferred vendor list of my own!
