About 365 days of marriage

I started this blog in April of 2011. At the time, Bret and I were wedding photographers and it was a way to share how marriage is more about the day to day and so much more than the wedding day itself. For about 5 years, I blogged about the joys and sorrows of the Christian walk, marriage, work, family and friends. I’ve blogged every day since a few weeks after I started. In May of 2015, we photographed our last wedding. Now, I have become passionate about simplicity, particularly in marriage, Christianity, business, travel and life. For a number of reasons, we have become minimalists. I’ve found that having simplicity makes life so much deeper, refreshing and joyful. I hope that this blog will help others see the benefits of living simply.

Day 2711 – What To Do If You Don’t Own A Tripod

Posted on December 12, 2016 by 365 days of marriage

Last night, we did our first YouTube intro. Who knows if anyone will ever see it, but hey. Since we left our wedding photography business AND sold everything related to photography, we have no tripod. We’re planning on using my phone for videos until we have the money for a new camera with video capability (funny how things change and stay the same). So, what’s a minimalist to do? Why, use the room light of course! This worked really well!

Since I can’t take a picture with my phone while my phone is in the “tripod” here’s a small notebook for an idea of what it looked like!

Day 2710 – When You Play Video Games Until 2 a.m., You Get This…

We had such a blast playing with my cousin’s VR system and playing a ton of Lego Dimensions with my cousin last night! We started around 2 p.m. and played until 2 a.m….breaking only for dinner. So, of course we slept in this morning…

Day 2708 – Photographers In Photo Booths

Posted on December 9, 2016 by 365 days of marriage

Last night, we attended a holiday party for wedding and creative professionals. It’s such a fun event and I’m so thankful that Ryan at Mixing Maryland DJs puts it on every year! It’s so thoughtful to provide a holiday party for people who work alone or with a very small team.

There was a photo booth and as you can see, we had a blast!
