I’m so excited to announce that three of my best photographer friends (Diana of Diana M Lott Photography, Vanessa of Photography by Vanessa, and Stacy of SMS Photography) and myself are collaborating to form a new company called FOUR Studios! FOUR Studios is definitely a unique venture – we will each retain our own individual companies and provide photography services thru those companies, but we will additionally be offering collaborative services thru FOUR. For all of the years we have known each other, we have been talking about doing something like this, so the formation of FOUR is a natural progression for us! Working together while photographing gives us the opportunity to each focus on our individual strengths while photographing an event and also brings out our competitive natures which only serves to create better images.

So, while we each will still be available for booking our own individual events, we will also be available as two, three or four together to photograph weddings, events, and portraits.

Check out the FOUR website if you have the chance!
