Leaning In: Why I’m revamping how I do business
My mindset shifts are happening slowly, but they’re happening.
And my business is going to benefit because of it.
My work is going to go back to focusing on the heart of why I started. To create gorgeous images and help people feel like the best, most authentic version of themselves. Because when I get back to the heart of why I started, and focus on making every single client experience as beautiful as I can, I know the rest will follow.
Loving Yourself and Why That Matters
Remember, self-care and self-love are not selfish; they are necessary pieces of a healthy, balanced life. By taking care of ourselves, we’re ensuring that we have enough to give to continue supporting others and contribute positively to the world around us. So, take a deep breath, listen to your needs, and give yourself the care and love you deserve. You are worth it.
Product Photography with JK Photos
A study by VWO (a visual website optimization firm) revealed that websites with high-quality images experienced a 35% increase in conversions compared to those with low-quality images or stock photography.

Photoshoot in Puerto Rico: Group Branding and Growth
So when I say that my group branding sessions are fire, you better believe it. 😉 These women walked away excited and raving about how good I made them feel. They were so excited that I offered this while we were all together, and I got a ton of love after I sent them their galleries too.
In fact, I bonded so hard with one of them that we still text each other randomly and stay in touch with each others lives.
The power of connection is so strong.
Let’s create community together.

Creating a Brand that brings you JOY
It’s officially 2024, and we’re kicking this year off with some insight on creating a brand that brings you joy and resonates with your followers.
As I’ve mentioned before, a brand is more than the fonts and colors you use. Those aspects play a part in bringing it all together, but the more important piece of branding is how you make people feel. What do followers feel when they see your social media posts? What do clients feel when they interact with you? And what does your service or product do to support and transform your clients' lives?
So let’s talk about it.
