h e l l o 2022✨

hi friends! WE MADE IT, whoo hoo! i've been off of IG the last few weeks to catch up with editing, rebranding, unlearning old techniques and learning new +updated techniques as well as studying to prefect my craft each day.

"omg, did she just say she's still studying?"

lol yes, i did! just because you have a passion for something, doesn't mean you can't continue to learn new things to strengthen your skills. life teaches us new things everyday so we shouldn't ever stop learning.

i'm so excited for this year because i have a few projects lined up, but even more excited knowing i'll get to work with some of you along the way. yaayyyy!

hope the start of your new year has been amazing so far and thank you for continuing to rock with me.

blessings!

don’t just exist…live baby, L I V E✨

What’s up everyone?! It has been a long time since I’ve been on here, but, I’m baaaccckkk and better. A lot has happened this year which forced me to put photography on hold while I handle other things. Now that’s all taken care of, I’m making a comeback. I’m in the process of rebranding this business to fit with another project I’m working on (details to come Jan 2021. Eeeeeeekkkkkk! I can’t wait to share this with you all😍) I planned to relaunch this at the end of the month, but I was listening to a podcast earlier this week that pushed + encouraged me to let go and JUST DO IT! So that’s exactly what I’m going to do.

As I continue to work on this, I’m taking bookings for any holiday mini sessions. For every session I book, 25% of that will go to a NPO I’m currently partnered with to bring some Christmas cheer for families who can’t afford gifts for their children due to the pandemic.

The first booking will receive a free mini session (30 minutes|15 photos) anytime throughout 2021. (As of 12/10, someone already booked with me and will be receiving this promo✅)

It’s time to update those Christmas family photos, so spread some holiday cheer by booking with me☺️.

♥️🙏🏼.

It’s true what they say, “It takes a village to raise a child.” Being able to capture the hands that helped raise you, nurture you + loved you was absolutely breathtaking. Appreciate the community that helped raise you.
