I just wanted to take a moment and thank all of the couples that I had a chance to work with last year.  It was LanierStar’s biggest and best year yet!  I have now photographed over 70 weddings as the primary photographer.  It’s hard to believe that when I opened my business in 2006  I didn’t plan on photographing weddings.  Five years later I can’t imagine my life without them!  I truly love my job and all of the couples I work with.  It means so much that these people connect with my work enough to choose LanierStar to document one of the biggest days of their life.  It is an honor that these people like me enough to want to share this amazing occasion with me.  These people welcome me with open arms, treat me like family and share their love with me so I can create irreplaceable memories for them.  I never forget what an awesome responsibility I have to these couples and their future families.  And, I am not going to lie…  I love hanging with them on the dance floor at the receptions!  What other job would let you do that?!?  :)

Here is a quick photo of thanks for each of the 26 couples I worked with this year.  Thank you, thank you, thank you!
