You never know where a relationship with a wedding client will take you over the years. Julie Chapman and I joke that I’m her personal photographer with exclusive rights on capturing her life. Since her 2006 wedding to Andrew, she has referred me to Rhiannon and Eric’s wedding and then back to her own family once her daughter Lyla joined the family. Julie contacted me again when she returned to the corporate world after her maternity leave for a headshot. Next thing we know, I’m shooting headshots for all three executives at Advocate Placement, a recruiting firm for legal professionals.

During my initial consultation and site visit I discovered that founder Anita Lerek is a lawyer by profession, she is a creative spirit and an avid art and music lover. As I write this they haven’t picked their new photos yet, but if you read through their online bios you’ll see that Anita and Julie met at a creative writing course. So much like inspiration, you never know where you will find a new client, friend or employer!
