I don't get too many opportunities to get behind the lens these days (life is chaos lol) but as we know, I do love me an event!
Today I had the honor of volunteering for the inaugural
Creative Con celebrating a beautiful young lady's Sweet 16. All she wanted was to create things to give back to the community.

Sarahya is doing AMAZING things in this world and today the community came together to help her make Creative Con come to life!

The pure and wholesome joy of the day reminded me so much of my my time with Kindle 💛

These are only 3 of the nearly thousand frames I have to sift through from today and I cant wait to share the rest of them next week!!

Good morning friends! I have been taking a little time the past few weeks after losing my grandfather followed by my 50th (??!!) birthday but wanted to come make a little announcement. Things are quiet for now as I am working on building something amazing! One of my dreams in life has been to make a stable living doing the things I love.
As a massage therapist, for the past nearly 11 years, I have been blessed to help people. While that is not going anywhere, anytime soon, my body is tired and I will be putting more effort into building the art business I have always wanted to.

New website.
New products.
Book releases.
Photography.
Classes.
Independent art shows and pop up shops.

Do I have a timeline? It's flexible because sometimes the grief dictates the things. Will it be sooner than later? I sure hope so!
In the meantime, it is Senior Pic season and I have some openings available for outdoor shoots!

Reach out for availability and pricing!

Here are some throwbacks from my portfolio that I will be using in an upcoming project

Here is a sampling of Black-owned businesses and Black-established attractions making an impact in Omaha that are worthy of your bucket list.

Hi friends. You will notice a bit more activity here and on our Instagram in the coming weeks as we begin making some forward motion.
As I move into the next phase of my life (how in the heck am I almost 50 🤯), I will be transitioning to putting more focus on art, photography and all things creative.
Here are some neat pictures I took recently in Minnesota that will be part of an upcoming project. Please dont steal them ;)
