So You’re a Photographer… I am so excited to have introduced my photography blog, Susie Marie Photography, just last week!

Fave Photo editor: Photoshop.

Instagram/Photography Inspiration: Fresh + simple beauty in the world around me.

Fave Blogs/Websites:  If you love photographing food like I do, I definitely recommend checking out David Loftus for inspiration! I also love the blog Two Healthy Kitchens –It has so many unique and healthy recipes!

A lil’ Bit About Otterbein:  I love Otterbein! It is a small university located in Westerville, Ohio. It is so nice to walk across campus and say hello to almost everyone you see. Otterbein is also located directly next to Uptown Westerville, which has adorable shops and fun places to eat.

Your Fave Columbus…
Coffee shop? Java Central in Uptown Westerville.
Movie theater? Rave Motion Pictures (Polaris).
Concert Venue? The LC Pavilion.
Park? Highbanks Metro Park.
Brunch? Tasi Café.
Girls’ Night? Cooper’s Hawk.
Date Night? Thurman’s Café + Arepazo Tapas & Wine.
Bakery? Schneider’s Bakery (Uptown Westerville).
Dessert? Pistacia Vera + Le Chocoholique.
Area of Columbus? German Village + Short North.
Hidden gem? A Twist on Olives in Uptown Westerville, the cutest olive oil store in town!
Clothes Shop? Madewell – worked there for 2 years and love the style!

Free day in Columbus. What do you do? Explore the city with my camera in hand and try a new restaurant!

This past year, I've learned so much & I want to share with you all... did you know: 
1.) All you need is $25 to start or add to your Ohio's 529 plan.
2.) Your Ohio's 529 plan be used NATIONWIDE - not just for Ohio schools.
3.) Your Ohio's 529 doesn't just cover tuition - you can use it on any qualified expense, like room & board, books, computers, internet services, mandatory fees and MUCH more.
4.) 529 plans aren't just for 4-year colleges. Ohio's 529 can be used at ANY type of school - whether that's a 4-year college, trade and tech schools, certificate programs, apprenticeships and more.
5.) There are SO many tax benefits - ALL earnings, including interest, grow tax-free, 529 plan withdrawals are tax-free when used for qualified higher education expenses, and you can deduct your contributions from their Ohio taxable income, up to $4K per year, per beneficiary.
