Here’s a seemingly simple question: what is beauty to you? When I think of my clients, one of the top concerns holding them back is they don’t feel they deserve a picture of themselves. “What do I do with just pictures of me? No kids. No husband.” Have you ever thought about life in a finite way? What if you could fast forward to 10, 20, 30 years from now? What do you think you would see? If I was a betting woman I would guess you wouldn’t see that 10 measly pounds you were trying to perpetually get rid of, or the few lines on your face.... we would see a woman who is beautiful in her own right. A beautiful woman who should’ve known her own worth. What is beauty to me? Being in alignment with who you really are and letting it shine through you. I’m here to capture that for you and show you and your family in 30+ years so you can remember what you’ve been through and where life has brought you from.

📷 I was so honored to work with the great Laura Murray for a shoot that she styled when I attended Showit United last year! I got to photograph and beautifully styled group of ladies AND I WANT MORE! 💕 But not with models... true, they know how to pose and look beautiful. But the reason I occasionally attend or create styled shoots is to practice for you, the every day women looking for an experience that makes you feel amazing. 🙋🏻♀️ This is a session without the kids, without hubby, without family... a session you will treasure. Because you inspire me. 🎉 If you’re ready, I’d love to chat with you more about crafting a session just like this for you! . . . . . #Panamacityphotographer #emeraldcoastphotographer #panamacitybeachphotographer #womenover40 #womengifts #40andfabulous #40thbirthday #northfloridaphotographer #youareenough❤ #knowyourworthladies #knowyourpower #unitedconference #sanantoniophotographer

🎉 Holy handmade noodle necklace, Batman, it’s finally that special for moms! 🦸♀️ This day is not only special because you get those adorable handmade cards and whacky handmade jewelry. We also get publicly recognized for having one of the hardest jobs on the planet... 🤔 Think about it (especially lately) we take on homeschool, client calls, emails, diapers (for some), cleaning, family morale, and that’s just Monday. We’re basically super heros! 💕What totally made your Mother’s Day this year??? . . . . . #mothersday2020 #momsrock #Panamacityphotographer #emeraldcoastphotographer #panamacitybeachphotographer #womenover40 #womengifts #northfloridaphotographer #youareenough❤ #knowyourworthladies #knowyourpower #womensupportingwomen #motherdaughterlove #motherdaughtertime #motherdaughtergoals #sanantoniophotographer

😳 Buckle up, this might get tough... What do you love about yourself? 😱 yeah, I know, maybe a little deep for a Thursday! It doesn't need to be tough, and can be as easy as liking your eyes, your smile, your hair... 🤜✨It's helpful to find at least one thing you love about yourself and look in the mirror and tell yourself. every. day. 🤔 I call it appreciative looking. To appreciate ourselves in any capacity has some power, but to actually put it into words. Out loud? Words have power and if you do this thing every day, you'll feel differently about yourself. Hell, you may even start to find other things you love about yourself! 🤜✨So, what do YOU love about yourself? . . . #Panamacityphotographer #emeraldcoastphotographer #panamacitybeachphotographer #womenover40 #flirty30 #40birthday #youareworthy #knowyourself #knowyourpower #motherlove❤️ #sanantoniophotographer #30aphotographer #30andfabulous

🎵 Musicians are a different breed. We understand the riggors of music school life, the isolation of being in a practice room for hours a day, immersing yourself in the newest recordings, dreaming of a career doing the one thing you love (and it may be the only thing you think you're good at). Taking endless auditions against 30+ other musicians vying for the same job 😒 🤯 It always blows my mind when I hear people say, "oh, she's so talented." Or, "You're so lucky to have that talent, I could never do that." Well sis, let me tell you, being that I was a musician for 27 years (12 of those years professional), that talent is about 10% and the rest of the 90% is good old fashion hard work. I would imagine that probably goes for any artistic craft but musicians get this kind of comment a lot. But that's not a dis, actually, it's very hopeful! That means you can accomplish what ever you want with the grit and determination! 🎶 Alena here is a friend of mine from my music days as a horn player. She always seems strong to me and I'm so happy I got to capture this gorgeous and strong image while she was on tour last year! 🎨 I'm using these images as fuel to visualize future creative shoots. Any other ideas???

When you feel stressed about a project or goal, do you: A. Push through to finish or B. Take a breather and come back later? Think about it, the last time you were trying to finish that project or goal did you think, "I just need to keep pushing and this will get done."? Next time you feel overwhelmed, try getting up, going into another room and doing something else for 10 minutes. Here are things you can do for 15 min and come back refreshed: 1. Go for a walk 2. Yogo/stretch 3. Fold that laundry pile that's been sitting in the corner 4. Listen to a podcast 5. Read a book (listen to audio book There's something so refreshing about changing your perspective for a little while and then coming back. I’m sure Samantha (pictured) the San Antonio mother of 2 - and the queen of blogging @thepinkenvelope and home renovations - will have some tips on this subject! What do you do to have a quick refresher? . . . #timetoreflect #shoppingislife #sanantonioblogger #sanantoniophotographer #panamacityphotographer #panamacityphotographer #emeraldcoastphotographer #northfloridaphotographer #relaxday #timeoutforme
