Seeing Your Beauty
At my core, my passion is transformation and empowerment. It is the ability to see others’ beauty and strength then bring it out and capture it. Through a single photoshoot, a woman can be introduced and sometimes reconnected to something she did not know existed within her. Bringing that forward and capturing it on paper is the greatest gift I can give a person.
My mission in life is clear - to lift others up through photography. Photography is the medium; the purpose goes deeper than snapping a photograph.
Is Your Headshot Costing You Business?
First impressions matter. These days, your first impression is often on the web. When a potential client, employer, vendor, or referral source looks at your website, your LinkedIn profile, your Facebook page, or a printed marketing piece with your headshot on it, that person will immediately make a judgment about you and your business. This judgment will affect your bottom line. I’ve had clients say that updating headshots has helped get new business, and when headshots are done for the whole company, it also boosts morale.
How do you Hustle?
“I will be at the top because I hustle. Ain’t nothing going to stop me because I hustle.”
So the question is, how do you Hustle?
Supporting My Community with Tomato Art
The 15th Annual East Nashville Tomato Art Festival is August 10th & 11th. Whoop!
For those of you wondering what the heck is the Tomato Art Festival, it is a festival located at East Nashville's 5 Points celebrating the Tomato. And when I say celebrate, I mean CELEBRATE! There's a parade, a costume contest, a bloody mary contest, an art show and contest, a 5K run, an Artist fair, multiple stages of live music, and any other way imaginable to celebrate the tomato. Why the tomato?
What to wear on your Photoshoot
So, what do I wear for my photoshoot?
I get this question all the time. This is one of the reasons that I do wardrobe consultations before the shoot, and people find it so helpful because generally speaking, they aren’t sure where to start. Also, I want to eliminate as much stress as possible so that you feel confident in what you are wearing for your shoot.

50 and Fabulous Photoshoot
As women, we are always so hard on ourselves so I like to try and turn that conversation around by changing the perspective with photographs and sometimes questions.
There are many reasons to have a photoshoot. One of those is reaching a milestone in life like turning 50. I am not 50 but I've always had close friends quite a bit older than me. One of the reasons is because I've always strived to be wise beyond my years, and I want to learn from them.
Creating Freedom in Your Daily Life
This image is about freedom. Something that I seek; something most of us seek. What I have learned is that freedom only comes when we have freedom within our mind and detach from outcomes. It comes when we stop resisting what is and find acceptance. It comes when we stop the chatter, cultivate faith, let go of fear, and trust ourselves.
