How Do I Find You

How Do I Find You

In a world where people just want the smallest, simplest piece of you, how do you show them that you need each other?

So much of owning a small business is meeting the people who will “get” what you do and want to be a part of it. If you’re doing it right, it’s not even a huge number of people, just enough that trust your vision and want it for themselves. But, when you have one minute to listen to their story and one minute to tell yours, how do you connect?

I’m so tired of the small talk, “I’m a life coach, oh, you’re a photographer? I need some new headshots.”

We know you do so much more than just coach people. Do you know that I do so much more than take a few photos of people?

How do we get there? How do we find meaning in these short conversations?

Searching for Yourself Doesn't Always Mean That You're Lost

Searching for Yourself Doesn't Always Mean That You're Lost

I photograph women at so many different phases of their lives.

I talk a lot about women coming to me who have gone through huge life events and they want to document themselves in an intimate way. I also have women who want to be photographed because they want an experience all their own, as a form of self-love.

Bridging the Gap Between Fine Art and Client Work

I was recently asked to have my work featured in a gallery on Palm Beach Island, called Haven.

This has been a dream of mine for so long. As someone who went to an art school for collage and has been photographing since the age of 16, it felt like such a missing piece to my artistic puzzle.

But, I was also excited for other reasons. I felt like this would give me the platform to show women something different.

Sometimes We Just Need Breathing Room to Create

Sometimes We Just Need Breathing Room to Create

I’ve been putting together a vision board for when I’m able to do another creative, personal expression through my art.

While my heart is photographing women and telling their stories, sometimes my soul needs to stretch and play so that I can reset and renew. This makes me better for the clients that I photograph.

Many creatives have gone into depression during this time because we haven’t been able to create like we usually do.

It’s our release. It’s our way out of darkness. It’s a way of telling other’s stories while telling our own.

Being a photographer is engrained in my being. To be able to document someone’s story that then becomes art in their home, it’s at times indescribable.
