An update from a civil engineer by day, wedding photographer by weekend.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1251
Welcome to Throwback Thursday / “Where are they now?” where we take an in-depth look at someone whose story has evolved considerably since we first featured them. So far in these features we’ve had a New York City musician with a blog teaching jazz that becomes a multiple six-figure business and an Australian woman who draws houses. Today, in our latest feature, we’ll hear from a guy I’ve known for a long time - he’s a civil engineer who had a wild idea a few years ago to offer wedding photography services through Craigslist. What’s happened since? Listen to today's episode to hear Oliver's updates...MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:
