Say Hello!

It’s Jess!! *cue New Girl’s theme song*

Welcome to the new blog and re-brand. I wanted to let you know where this all stemmed from because let’s be honest, Love Ya Jess… will be missed. I found myself really drained a few months ago. After some personal loss, I just couldn’t get my feet back underneath me. Now, you know I love my brides. It had nothing to do with any of you beauties and everything to do with my energy. Seasons of pain can really do a number on you! I had a great friend and fellow business owner take me to a One Day conference with Christy Wright & Dave Ramsey. We both left with a mile long to-do list but with so much excitement and direction that we both kicked it into high gear. Christy wrote an amazing resource for women who are or want to be boss ladies called, Business Boutique. Take a look! This book helped me to – pause – and take inventory of what I was working with and what I needed to remind myself of.

Every once in a while you can find yourself, as a business owner, in the grind of your business and not the vision of your business. At a ten thousand foot view, you can examine a lot of different things. It became clear that I was going to revamp, spruce things up a bit. Well, the revamp turned out to be a rebrand after some soul searching and some great lunches with friends. I want to share with you a dream of mine that you will find on the front page of the new website …

“I FELL MADLY IN LOVE WITH THIS DREAM. A DREAM THAT COUPLES WOULD DO MORE THAN SURVIVE. THEY WOULD THRIVE AND IMAGES FROM THEIR WEDDING DAY WOULD ALWAYS BRING THEM BACK TO A MOMENT WHERE NOTHING ELSE IN THE WORLD MATTERED BUT THE LOVE THEY SHARED FOR THEIR HUSBAND/WIFE. THAT SPOUSES WOULD NOT ONLY LOVE EACH OTHER BUT THEY WOULD LIKE EACH OTHER. IT’S MY DESIRE TO BE A PART OF CAPTURING ALL THE LOVE YOU SHARE FOR ONE ANOTHER ON YOUR WEDDING DAY. LEAVING YOU WITH MORE THAN MEMORIES ON A PAGE BUT AN EMOTION AND FEELING THAT REMINDS YOU OF THE EPIC LOVE YOU FEEL FOR ONE ANOTHER TODAY. ”

 

Wouldn’t that be great? To invest just as much energy into your marriage as you do for your wedding day. That’s what I am here for, to help capture your love in a classic and authentic way that will allow generations to see the start of your marriage. Quality is staying the same. Jess *cough myself* is staying the same. It was time to grow and mature with the brand. I’m thrilled with where we are heading. Marriage is such an amazing thing, it is also one of the hardest journeys you will ever embark on. Putting the other person’s needs before your own is NOT easy twentyfourseven. That is where grace and communication come into play… for another blog post one day.

Let’s talk about my location, location, location. Here is what you need to know… I travel to any location for your wedding day. I mean it, I’ve been to Mexico, Hawaii, Texas, New York, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Tennesee, South Carolina, Colorado and Mount Everest. Okay, Just Kidding… that was Charelton Churchill and if you haven’t seen what is going viral you can see that blog post here. Leave him some love because this photographer trained for a year and hiked for almost 3 weeks for this elopement. I’m willing to go almost anywhere for your wedding. If you know someone who wants to elope to Ireland… I’ll buy you something epic.

Thanks for taking a few minutes and getting a glimpse behind the reason for the rebrand. I hope you love it just as much as I do.

Love Ya,
