Internship Review by Alumni Intern Meagan
LeahAndMark.com | Atlanta Wedding Photographers
Pin itWe like to say that we have the best photography internship in the country. It’s true – but only because our Internship is more than just me or Leah. It’s more than a series of classes or a couple of workshops. We don’t know exactly what it is – because it changes with each new Season of Interns – and so do we. The intern application for Season Seven will be posted this coming Monday. – Mark - Posted by Alumni Intern Meagan | …read more

LeahAndMark.com | Atlanta Wedding Photographers
Pin itWell, my turn for a new year’s post. Since joining Pinterest a few weeks back {and yes, I’m obsessed}, I’ve seen a ton of really awesome inspirational things. Words of wisdom, little reassurances, awesome images others have taken, etc. My favorite one by far, though, was this: “My 2012 New Year’s Resolution: Be Better.” I’ve taken it as my resolution, as well. It really covers all manner of things, all of the things I want to – when you break it down – be …read more

Pin it- Posted by Leah If you are a sleep-deprived parent, please don’t read this blog post! Everyone else – I am happy to report that I’m getting a decent amount of sleep!

LeahAndMark.com | Atlanta Wedding Photographers
Pin it- Posted by Mark Since my personal life and business life are closely related/largely the same – these resolutions work for both – or the appropriateness goes back and forth. 1. Read more. Read Again. Over the past two years I’ve read… a lot of books – and most of them not about photography – and we make it a general rule to avoid photography ‘business’ books. We read for new ideas. Photography business books generally have none of those. These are a list …read more
New Years Resolutions & a Recap by +Jo
LeahAndMark.com | Atlanta Wedding Photographers
Pin it- Posted by +Jo I hope your New Year has started off amazing. I hope you were safe and had a lot of fun on New Year’s Eve. You deserved it. I’ve been rather vacant lately. This year holds so much potential – something I don’t think I fully took advantage of in the last. Growing up I always spent my New Years Eves with my Meme {aka grandmother}. Every one, until I went to college. The last few have held nothing for me. …read more

Each year brings new experiences an lessons, and becoming a mom was the …read more

This post is going to have way more than usual. …read more
Wednesday by Leah: My New Heart
LeahAndMark.com | Atlanta Wedding Photographers
Pin it- Posted by Leah I love a lot of people. I love deeply, fiercely, easily. But I also love safely. I’ve never truly had a broken heart before. I love people I know will love me back. I surround myself with happy thoughts, happy dreams, happy places, happy faces, and then I let the love flow. It is a controlled love, as controlled as love can be. Which is perhaps why I resisted when I first met Mark – this was a love that …read more
