I'm writing this from a surreal viewpoint. I interview myself every month just to make sure I still want to do this. I do. I absolutely love what I do. I have gone from $500/wedding to over $10K/wedding in less than 7yrs. I am no longer taking local weddings, only destinations. 90% referrals from brides and other portrait clients keep me pretty busy. I do not overbook as I never want to compromise the client experience. Service is in the foremost part of my business b/c I know my work delivers. I just want it to be on a silver platter.
