The reason St. Louis's small business continues to thrive is the support owners show to one another.

Thanks to Andrew Zheng for featuring me this month!

Luvwoo is located in Creve Coeur. If you haven't been, y'alll. You're missing out. The cocktails (and mocktails) are top-notch. Don't get me started on the desserts. AND you can catch some of the best live music St. Louis has to offer.

So thrilled to be shooting this event again!!

They are any easy "yes" to support.

Thank you to all of our wonderful Angels Among Us Gala Sponsors! We are extremely grateful for your support and are eagerly looking forward to seeing you on April 27th.

Local business clients & friends...

1. Check your settings. RAW gives you more driving power in editing!

2. Never never never shoot for free. "I'm waiving my fee." Words matter.

3. A contract protects you. It protects the client. Even if you're waiving your fee (see #2), you need one.

4. This isn't a hobby. You need to treat this like the business it is. Be proud of the content you're putting out. Be consistent. If you want to be hired... Put some expertise behind what you're doing.

5. You don't have to offer everything. And you need to have specialties. Give them service they can't get anywhere else.

I'm an overly proud (grand) daughter, sister, aunt, and friend to some rockstars from each branch. Last night I got to chat with a hero actively serving our great nation. I got the reminder of how we get to sleep at night, not worrying about some things others do.

I'm so grateful for the heroes and she-roes that serve our nation. Through the good, the bad, and the in between, we have it pretty good here thanks to their service and sacrifice.

High five a veteran today!
