I have always been fascinated by photography. I have spent countless hours studying photographs of people, while considering the angles, the lighting, and the editing the photographer used. I love the fact that photography has the amazing ability to transport us to a different time, or place with one single shot.
It was not until I started blogging that I decided to take photography more seriously. With camera in hand, I started experimenting with photographs of my apartment, of friends, and family. It was after experimenting in this way that I realized my passion for photography. I have no formal training or background in this field, but I realize that passion can open your eyes to the impossible, so not only did I invest in the proper equipment I also spent the necessary time to learn everything I could to enhance the skill it takes to be proficient with this passion.
I enjoy, and appreciate the opportunity to photograph bloggers, couples, influencers who make an impact in their profession, families, and also lifestyle type setting. I take an individual approach to each person I photograph. I make every effort to embrace and highlight the focus of what they are trying to convey to their audience with each session.
I look forward to working together and capturing the potential magnificence of your moments through my eyes and the lens of my camera.
I am always trying to find ways to spruce up pieces I seem to wear on a constant basis. For example this black and white t-shirt dress is something I grab in the summer as well as in the fall. Something about stripes always grabs my attention but to wear it plain and simple gets a bit boring. Because of this in the summer I try and add fun shoes and a light summer sweater and in the winter I always try and go a little darker with the styling. It really is a blank canvas!
I used to be a total make-up junkie. I would buy products, try them out, and mix and match. If I didn’t love the combo, to my sister they went. As I get older I know I need more creams and a little bit more coverage than I did when I was 18. After testing out many different combinations I have finally found one I love and wanted to share with all. Descriptions on products and links on where to buy below.
If you could only buy three items out of the 20 here are my top must haves:
#8- The powder and the brush really do give me the best and most flawless coverage you could ever ask for. You get a full coverage without looking cakey and overdone.
#12- I get asked every time I wear this what it is. I take the feather brush and lightly dust it on the top of my cheek for a dewy and youthful look.
#13- I preach to all my friends how important eyebrows are. They literally change your face shape and make you look put together and complete. Anastasia is like the Ferrari of eyebrow fills. A must invest kind of product. It even comes with a tracer for all you beginners.
First off- Has anyone that lives in Texas stepped outside yet? It actually feels like fall! Cool and crisp. A wonderful surprise! This weekend I am headed to Houston with my friend Molly for a dinner and exhibition by the one and only Gray Malin. Famous for his photography (you must know his Marfa/Prada prints) which he started selling out of a flea market in LA and has since displayed them in the Dallas Museum of the Art and the Julia Dean Gallery in Venice. His work is known across the world as his pictures always capture a certain feel that is extremely intriguing. check it out here.
