I felt very safe and comfortable! If you are thinking of doing a shoot have fun with it! Do what feels good and comfortable. Tell yourself all the beautiful things to spike that confidence. Repeat after me: I am stunning. I am loved. I am bold. I am brilliant! — I’ve been practicing... they feel weird and silly at first, but it really does start impacting the mood!

My favorite part was wearing the prettiest things and feeling like a queen for a moment. 

The most important thing to me are the people that believe in me and supported me even while I was going through the toughest point and struggling. I love you all so very much. Especially my daughter, she reminds me to take time to enjoy the little things and to pay attention to how life should be enjoyed rather than rushed. 

Taking the time for myself is the hardest for me to do, but I’m learning!

What lights me up? Watching people find their voice and calling and growing as humans, finding the beauty in the small things, watching children discover, getting dressed up, long chats over local coffee, walks surrounded by nature, getting crafty.

One thing people don’t know about me is that I love fuzzy bumblebees but I’m afraid of butterflies. The wings are pretty, but the rest of them is freaky!

I’ve never done anything quite like this before but have always wanted to! When the opportunity arose, I couldn’t pass it up. I’m comfortable in my skin, but afraid of the perception at times. My casual wear isn’t exactly modest, but when I am meeting with people I know, I tend to cover up due to insecurities of others’ perception. I’m trying to get over that and be able to wear what I want to always.
