I had an epiphany on a plane right a few weeks ago… We hit some turbulence not long after takeoff, and I started to think about why the bumps freaked me (and most people) out so much. And the answer is because our reptilian brain (which is responsible for the fight or flight response) is […]

I’m SO grateful that my job gives me the flexibility to work from paradise when I feel like it. While I am ALL about taking a full-on vacation where the laptop isn’t even packed, sometimes I want to combine both for a little work-cation. That way, I am able to travel more often and when […]

Fridays on Instagram should be spent crafting fun #fridayintroductions posts, NOT panicking over Linktree suddenly being no longer an approved third-party bio link. But that’s exactly how this morning began, and while the issue magically resolved itself within a few hours, I immediately knew I didn’t want my bio link in third-party hands anymore.
So I reached out to my Virtual Assistant (Adrienna at Ava + The Bee) for a solution, and we decided that a dedicated link landing page on my own website was the way to go! It could function just like Linktree, but with so many more benefits and none of the risk.
And now I want to show you guys how she did it! So I asked Adrienna to put together a step by step Instagram bio link landing page tutorial for you guys, and I’ll turn it over to her now…

When you are first starting out as a photographer, switching gears into a new niche, or even moving cities, you may find yourself at square one without a solid portfolio. And that’s ok! I’ve been shooting for 7 years and I found myself in this position multiple times–when I very first picked up a camera, […]

Last week we talked about allowing yourself to take steps backwards in your business in order to strengthen yourself mentally, physically and emotionally for a giant leap forward. But taking time off from your business brings up some scary questions that you might also have if you are moving to a new city or venturing into a new business niche…and y’all, a few years ago I was actually was faced with ALL THREE of those business challenges at once.

Last Monday, I briefly mentioned a particularly difficult phase of dream-chasing: the tear-streaked, anxiety-filled, doubt-fueled phase of not-enough-sleep.
I know, I really know—it’s a tough phase to be in. And there are probably many of you reading this right now who have thought recently “do I even want my dream badly enough to doing all of this!?”

I remember when Friday was the best day of the week. The anticipation of a full weekend of freedom ahead of you was almost like Christmas Eve, and it felt like Monday was ages away.
But you know why I used to crave Fridays and dread Mondays? Because…

I remember the very first time I ever shot a wedding like it was yesterday. I was a second-shooter (basically an assistant photographer) for a well-known wedding photographer in Gainesville, FL back in 2010. I could barely sleep the night before, and I spent the whole wedding day with excited butterflies. I can still picture the room the bride and bridesmaids were getting ready in, because it was the first spot we shot in that day and I couldn’t believe I was really there.
And then when it was all over, I spent the drive home on such a natural high that I felt almost dizzy. I called one of my best friends on the way home, shaking with excitement and just wanting to tell someone about it this FEELING I had stumbled upon…
