FUN FACT: I designed my own business cards. Am I a graphic designer yet? 👩🏻‍💻
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Before I went to school for multimedia arts, I did not know how to use photoshop, illustrator or any other software. And during our first class sessions I was always nervous but at the same time learning really excited me! 🤓
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now, I’m out of design school but everyday is still a learning opportunity to hone my craft and become better. It wouldnt frustrate you as much once you learn to love the process 💍
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
(((Except drawing. Lol our drawing and animation classes made me ugly cry so many times. The line has always been “I’m an art student who cant draw for sh*t” 😩))))
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
PS. Still working on my copywriting skills haha!
Brooklyn has the biggest heart. I couldnt tell it was her first day at work when I photographed her. She talked with grace and stood with confidence as she told me about helping other women and children overseas. 💛
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now, ive always been aware of childbrides in west africa but when she told me that Every two seconds one is being forced to marry someone multiple times their age, my heart sank. And when she saw this, she was quick to tell me she didnt want to make me feel bad and so she laid out ways I could help at my age. 🌙
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And Ive always loved people who are that way. Focusing on how we can make the situation better instead of dwelling helplessly. What a woman. We gave each other high fives before saying bye and thats how you know you gained a friend, right? ☺️

I’m not really one to talk about the weather but sometimes it’s really just too cold to go out so I just bring the coffee shop to me and set up something fancy 😂 #treatyaself #workfromhomefeels

Journaling my heart out, brainstorming ideas and planning my days all happen on paper. Are you a digital or paper kind of person when it comes to these things?
good things:
yellow flowers. days that feel as though you were in a movie. early mornings. ketchup. mommy’s different ways of telling me she loves me without words. finding my favourite books at goodwill. situations that raise the question, ”but what would Forrest do?!” people who look at you like maybe you're magic. looking at the world like maybe everything is magic. life’s unconventional way of answering prayers and giving us what we need before we know we need it. patience. love. kindness. being here.
Doing things a little differently on the blog! Yesterday I published the first #yegcoffee episode and today another post went live. Dealing with things the way I do best, turning the mess into a message☺️

Here’s an excerpt:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
”When the ego yearns for instant gratification, when it screams "I want it now!", when it gets caught up in the belief that it is a victim of the situation, hush it.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Tune in to your higher self. The one that understands that it's all part of the process. The one that honors your struggle because it knows it's all going to be worth it. That knows how things could only make sense looking backwards and that one day you will look back with a greater understanding. The one who knows that all of this is necessary for you to really grow and mature to be the person you have to be in order to do things you want to do and have the things you want to have. ” #meandmywoowoo 😩😂 #linkinbio
The look of someone with a plan. 🔥
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This headshot is the exact opposite of how the shoot with Kelly went. We laughed our way most of the time as we turned a local coffee shop into our own studio. “Others are probably only pretending to read but really theyre judging us.” 😂
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But hey! Im so grateful for what I do because it allows me to meet people and learn from them too. I shared more photos on my website! Just scroll down a tiny bit and there’s a new category called “recent work” 💛
I literally am a business card hoarder. May it be from networking events or from random coffee shops and restaurants, I have to have all of it! (and stalk these amazing women) so lo and behold, my own #businesscards 🕊
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Stilllll blushing over the fact that I get to capture photos of women doing what they love! And not only that! More importantly, through photos, I get to help in telling their stories. Stories that have always inspired me and brought me to the realization of how blessed we are to be able pursue lives that are fulfilling in every sense, and let alone be able to even dream such a luxury. It is both humbling and empowering. 👏🏼
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you’re someone who’s relentless in the pursuit of your heart’s desires, GET IT GIRL! Rooting for you from this side of the world (or screen haha!) #communityovercompetition always always always 💛
