  • 4 why we got into the wedding industry, burgers, and bellyflops with Ashley
    May 12 2024

    Today I'll be discussing my origin story with Ashley Serna as little baby vendors first breaking into the industry. We touch on the experience of burn out that most new vendors face the first year of their business. We gush over our previous clients and client relationships as a whole as well as vendor relationships. Behind the scenes of a vendors work week and how it never ends. Photographers can be savages with each other. Day of coordinators are not realistic. You're not going to like every vendor you work with. Then after all those hot topics we'll get into some wedding ins and outs!
