Well the year has come to an end and the new one has started and so I wanted to take a little time to reflect on the past year. I've been so lucky to work with such amazing people. Over this past year I learned a lot about myself, my photography skills and running a photography business. I've learned to be confident in my skills and the photos that I create. My wife Mandy always jokes about how I usually come home from a photoshoot and am discouraged cause I don't think I got any good photos. Well after looking through the photos we always find good ones. There were a lot of lessons learned from 2010 and I plan to improve upon those and create more fun photos in 2011!

This last year has definitely made me question whether I can do this full time. The desire and drive are there for me but the one thing that will help me to make this a reality is YOU! I rely solely on word of mouth and your referrals. I hope that each and every one of you will think of me when you're looking for a wedding photographer, senior portrait photographer, family photographer, and newborn photographer. Do you know someone getting married? Are you or a friend a senior in high school? If we got the opportunity to work together this year and were happy please share my name with your friends and family! I really enjoy working with each of you and have a blast creating fun photos!

Below are some of my favorite photos from the past year and the respective blog post link so you can see the rest of the photos if you missed them.

Thanks again for helping me get to where I am at the end of 2010! Now onto 2011!!
