Reverie Magazine
Recently I had the pleasure to work with Janie Medley, the ever luminous mastermind behind the Bride’s Café, on a summer shoot for my favorite new publication publication, Reverie Magazine. As always, Janie’s flowers were amazing, and Dana Fitzgerald supplied impeccable styling. But the cherry on top was the couple, Lydia and David. A few months before the shoot, Lydia and David had spontaneously eloped in Las Vegas. While their unexpected nuptials were wildly romantic, they were left without pictures that captured the excitement and beauty of their bright new love. Janie, Reverie Magazine, and myself thought this shoot would be the perfect gift to a happy new couple.

Dear Penny
To the extent I am a photographer, I am a photographer because of Jill Thomas. When my family moved to Virginia it was good luck that my backyard kissed Jill’s. Jill was my neighbor before I owned my first camera. She was my friend, my mentor, my resource, and an inspiration. I booked my first wedding because of the things Jill taught me, and when I shot my first wedding my head was full of Jill’s images and ideas. We’re not neighbors today (she’s since moved her sweet family and her beautiful film photography to California), but I will always ADORE Jill and her work. She will always be an inspiration to me. Both in person and in art.
That is why my heart is so weak now, Jill lost her beautiful 21-month-old baby girl, Penny. As a mom I cannot fathom what her and her family are living, yet I am in awe at the faith, resilience, and love with which she has responded to this staggering blow.
When it rains it pours, and Jill’s unspeakable loss has brought an unexpected financial burden. The family’s insurance will not cover the cost of the funeral or related expenses. A fund has been set up to help the family, and please please make a contribution. But if you can’t, please say a prayer for the Thomas family.

A little while back, PDN invited me to speak with them and share my perspectives on the role of wedding blogs in the industry and my specific experience with wedding blog juggernaut Style Me Pretty. A few of my thoughts have made their way into a wonderful feature on wedding blogs in PDN’s latest issue. Can’t wait to get your hands on a hard copy? You can preview the article digitally here.
