Justine: Year 1

From Justine: I did it! I completed my first season as super second shooter on team Heather. 2013 has been a life altering year for me. I have crawled out of my shell in so many ways, I’ve learned to embrace the beauty around me and have started to become what I think is an adult. I could not of accomplished this much without the help and support of my ever so gracious friend and Mentor, Heather Jowett. I tip my hat to you, and look forward to many more car rides filled with laughter and NPR tears, they’re real, look it up.

I would like to thank the real stars of the year, the couples. Thank you for letting me glimpse into your love stories for a day. I am genuinely inspired by your radiant smiles, your subtle glances and your continuous hospitality. You have made this season unforgettable for me! I look forward to the future, to the new lovers and the adventures they will take us on.

This post is for everyone that has made this season possible, thank you.

From Heather: When I first decided to make Justine a part of the team, I wondered what would happen. Would she progress? Would she learn? Would she get along with my clients? Would she come to a point where her work could speak for itself? I’ve had a year to answer those questions, and the answer is Yes, on all accounts. I’m so proud of the progress Justine has made in just one year of shooting weddings by my side, and can’t wait to see the images she’ll make this year.

Here’s some of Justine’s work, speaking for itself.
