For those of you who have been following our #secretproject on Instagram, it’s time for the secret to be revealed!
We are thrilled to announce that our IN-CAMERA workshops are coming out on DVD & as a digital download!!

Life is really hard sometimes. I mean, REALLY hard. There are tons of obstacles that can hit us personally as well as professional from every side.
Today is how to overcome those.
The video we are sharing today was going around on Facebook a few weeks ago and we thought that it was very appropriate to share ESPECIALLY on a Tuesday Tips & Tricks. Tuesdays are all about growing your business and photography, and this is probably one of the most important things to learn that will drastically change the tough cards that you may have been dealt with.
Here are the cards: [click to continue…]
The below video of Team Hoyt aired on the Today Show in their “Real Heroes” segment in 2006 and we thought we would share it with you all… Talk about being challenged!
Makes me ask myself, “When was the last time I loved someone like this so unselfishly?” … wow.

A Fun Date Day in Nashville!!!!!
Our business is our baby. It’s something Zach & I built together from the ground up and we pour a lot of time and effort into it. As important as it is, it’s also really important to us to spend time together outside of our business.
We have been a part of a married couples Sunday School class for the last 3 years and we’re all going through the book His Needs, Her Needs (great book to read, by the way). This week we were on Chapter 6 which addresses one of a male’s most important needs: Recreational Companionship. It’s important for a husband and a wife to have activities they can do and share together because it is such a huge bonding thing, especially for men.
Personally, we have found that recreational companionship is pretty high on both of our “lists.” Luckily Zach & I get along really well (most of the time.. he he) and do most things together, but we try and always make some efforts to hang with NO business talking/planning/brainstorming allowed!
Take today for example… Sunshine + 73 degrees + Strong winds + Sponge Bob Square Pants kite + Local park + Subway + Velcro catch games = LOTS OF ZACH & JODY FUN! Enjoy the pics 
Stopped at good ‘ol Walmart and bought this Velcro-catch game that I (Jody) used to have growing up…
Took a studly pic of my husband and me in his reflection after we finished our Subway…
Posing it up with SPONGE-BOB (look at his cute little arms and legs!)
And then took Sponge Bob out for a ride in the air!!
Again, notice his little arms and legs billowing in the wind!! Aw, he’s so cute!!
We had a lot of fun and it’s always so refreshing to do something together and just hang out with no agenda besides having a nice time together.
Sometimes it’s hard to think of things to do. What are some activities that you all like to do with other people whether it be with friends, spouse or boy/girlfriend, etc.? With the weather warming up there are definitely more options!
As I slowly started waking up this morning, I realized my bed didn’t feel how it normally feels, and wait, my pillow feels different too… “We’re not in Kansas – I mean – Nashville anymore…” That’s right – we’re in Connecticut!
A few months ago Zach and I were invited out to this great state (29th most populated state with 3.4 million residents, thank-you Wikipedia) by some of the coolest cats in the photography world – Justin & Mary Marantz! These guys are great people and have fantastic work and we’re looking forward to the next 2.5 days hanging here with them!
Our time here will consist of chillin’, talking shop, Justin & Mary want to do a photo shoot of us, and on Wednesday we will be speaking at their photography group they lead. We’re excited for this trip and it’s nice to hand out in a new city with some new friends!
As soon as we stepped off the plane we experienced exciting & magical things (see video below) and we know only more exciting things are to come… ha ha ha… Seriously, check out this video… We have never seen anything like it before… or maybe we’ve just been deprived.
