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.
Yes, it is that beautiful time of year when there are lots of sales. I am such a bargain hunter (unless I really love someone) that I get giddy at the site of a sale! Growing up I would always tell my dad I “saved $…” Much to his dismay, he would inform me but you still spent, “$…” Uhg, he never understood, but seriously, I still feel like I “save” money when there is a sale even though I am still spending. Whichever way you look at it, sales are tres bien! My last conquest was the Biscuit Home sale where I bought this incredibly adorable quilt for one of my guest bedrooms, a few gifts for my nieces, and these sheets that will go perfectly with my new bedding! But the sale that has me waking up happy this morning? Nordstrom’s half yearly. Holy mecca of womanly goodness – make-up, skincare, perfume, shoes, swim, clothing, home goods, and gifts, ALL on sale! I mean, how cute are these Rag & Bone Croc embossed sandals. And remember when I wrote about EACH X OTHER? Every one of their pieces is one sale. I have had my eye on this Metallic Leather Terry sweatshirt since seeing in a few weeks ago in Canary and it is now 40% off! If you are a bargain gal like me – may the odds be ever in your favor.. Just kidding! That was so cheesy! But seriously, happy hunting shopping!
Rolling racks are a great way to decorate, fill space, organize, and/or display cool pieces of clothing. I always loved seeing designer offices with rolling racks which held only a few special pieces. It made the room feel professional and cool. Right now the best places to get a rolling rack are container store, target, and other places like that, but they aren’t always the coolest thing around. Most of their rolling racks are for laundry rooms or storage units – not so great for display. After Insagram stalking a few of my favorite bloggers I came across Monroe Trades via Serena Goh of The Spicy Stiletto. She posted a photo of her display and I was stopped in my tracks scrolling. It.was.perfect! The rack was industrial quality with a NYC edge. Patrick, the creator, says it best about his pieces, “A little leather, metal, paint, wood and elbow grease.” Any product that is American made with a “little elbow grease” is probably something worth investing in! I mean these are just pure brilliance.
Now that I have your space looking half way cool, one part about a good rolling rack is the accessories that are on it. You can’t have a beautiful piece like the one’s above and put wire hangers on it. No, no, no! So what do you do? You get as equally beautiful hangers. Not those clear or black, but metal. Berlin based designers from Roomsafari have officially created the most unique and beautiful hangers I have ever seen. The Triangle Hanger is a rolling rack must-have and probably worth buying extra to hang on a wall as art. The industrial meets sleek design is absolutely wall worthy!
Now that I have introduced you to probably the coolest partnership since the Spice Girls, you have absolutely no excuse for poor display. Just kidding, just kidding! But do keep them both in mind for any of your office or closet needs! You will probably be the coolest girl/guy on the block!
