In today’s world, trying to get married has become... a hot mess. So, to all the COVID brides to have been, grooms and wedding professionals: you’re not alone. Welcome to Bride To Have Been, a StudioPod original podcast hosted by Emily Lewis, with the purpose of building a community by sharing the reality of this new normal in the wedding industry.

On this week's episode, Emily interviews Erin Stubblefield of Erin Stubblefield Weddings and Portraiture. Erin is a Chicago and St. Louis-based wedding photography studio but is available worldwide. Her and her team specialize in documentary fine art wedding photography with a real and timeless aesthetic. Erin’s professional career started at the University of Missouri, where she graduated with a degree in photojournalism. After working for newspapers across the country, Erin’s passion for photojournalism and portraiture came together when she founded her company.

While Erin loves nothing more than to document the celebration of love and beginning of marriage, her 2020 was rocked by the pandemic... or was it? Although she lost her team, she show resilience and was able to find ways to break even with the year prior. Tune in to listen how she was able to do so.
