It's Time to Write Your Own Story

I saw something yesterday that said, “Write your own story”. How can those 4 words evoke so much inside of me? About an hour before reading those words, I discovered something I wrote when I was in the middle of my darkest year (2017). I had lost my dog, my grandfather, my uncle and my grandmother, all within a few months. I then asked my husband for a divorce.

Having a studio space has it’s own pros, but it can start to become repetitive. The last thing I want is for the work that I’m creating for these women to become second nature.

Megan is a redheaded beauty after my heart.  We worked to mix clothing she already owned with vintage pieces she found in local vintage shops in Jacksonville. I love when my clients decide to get so into the shoot and come up with their own great ideas. We were…
