If we’re friends, and I land in your inbox each Friyay, you got some insider scoop this morning on why I’m your Europe photographer. (Don’t wanna miss out on any future goodness?) The very first thing I said in my email? I can’t believe I’m going this in depth about this topic!

Having a business and being in the military is a difficult balance between not sharing enough and sharing too much. So it’s hard having a business and a husband in the military! Oh, and to top it all off? Try moving your personal life and your business every few years.

My love story with Europe

No matter where I have lived, one thing has remained constant- my love for Europe, specifically France. I used to dream of European countries and what their cultures were actually like. Was it truly like what I had read on blogs and seen on The Travel Channel? I needed to know for myself!

What better way to incorporate Europe into my life than starting the journey towards an International Business Degree? I couldn’t think of one! So I did it. As a result, I went on an 11-week journey to over 10 countries in Europe, India, and China. It was academically challenging, but I wanted to soak in the culture in each and every country. So I studied at coffee shops and reward myself with people watching breaks.

I felt right on that trip. The only thing missing? My then very significant, significant other, Teylor.

When I got back home to Houston I gushed for months about all the European countries I had experienced! I couldn’t wait for Teylor and me to experience it together! Fast forward a few years, Teylor joins the Air Force. We requested a base within the continental United States so we could stay close to family.

So, naturally, the Air Force told us we were going to Germany.

I’d be lying if I said it was all rainbows and sunshine from the start. I’ll never forget getting the call from Teylor, the one I knew he was going to tell me what his paperwork said about where we’d be going first. Sitting in my car at Barnes and Nobles looking at the happy people sitting outside sipping their coffee I just sobbed. I didn’t want to be away from family, I didn’t want to move my business, I didn’t want to potentially start my family an ocean away from my support system.

Over the next few days, it sunk in, this was my dream. I could stop dreaming about being a Europe photographer and BE one.

Why you can get excited about me being your Europe photographer

Enough about me, friend, I’m so excited to share the reasons it’s so great that I’m here for you as your Europe photographer! I truly believe you having me here is in your best interest- and here’s why!

Little to no travel fees

Once you’re in Europe, traveling is no big deal. In this part of the world, there are trains, subways, and buses galore! I adore being able to hop on a train, with ease, and have it take me wherever my business takes me. When you hire an American that lives in America you’ll be responsible for their airfare, a few extra days of hotel and food costs, and potentially a rental vehicle. None of that really rings true with hiring a Europe photographer that lives in Europe!

The best recommendations

In the past three years of living in Europe, my little family has traveled, a lot. It’s something we are very passionate about! We have kept detailed records about sites and attractions we’ve seen in each city as well as where we ate, how we got around, and of course, the where the best coffee joints are- adorably called cafés here. I love sharing all of this information with my couples! I want you to have the very best experience when you come to Europe for your destination engagement session, wedding, or anniversary experience!

Have a point of contact, in Europe

Sometimes it can be seriously overwhelming to plan anything happening in Europe, from America. I know because I’ve done it. It’s because of knowing that overwhelm that I offer assistance to my couples. You’re my number one priority! So if you need assistance scheduling a venue walkthrough or are having trouble envisioning how an area looks in a certain season. Chances are, it’s easier for me to pick up the phone and ask a simple question for you if the vendor is in Europe. Chances are, I’ve been to the region you’re dreaming of for your big day! Chances are, I can help make some of that overwhelm go away- rest assured that I’m here for you! And me being in Europe? Simply put, it’s a huge advantage for you and yours.

Dreaming of a destination wedding? Married, but oh so ready for those romantic anniversary portraits in front of the Eiffel? Let’s chat!
