Cadey vowed not to become a wedding photographer after inheriting the title of "designated reflector holder" for her mom, who photographed countless weddings throughout Cadey's childhood. Cadey associated wedding photography to her mom being gone and wanted no part of it.
Life had other plans for Cadey.
During college, Cadey decided to start shooting weddings to help pay off student debt. One wedding turned into ten, and ten weddings turned into twenty. Before long, she had a book of business and it all clicked. “It chose me. I didn’t choose it.”
In this episode, Cadey shares how she created an in-demand wedding photography business and continues to set herself apart from the vastly competitive market. She approaches wedding photography as a business, but also comes at it from a bride’s perspective and strives to make a stress-free experience for all of her brides and grooms. My conversation with Cadey is full of laughter, so many golden nuggets of wisdom, and *spoiler* some light rapping. That's right, Cadey raps for us!
