Really big new here…

🎉I got bangs
🎉I started thrifting and my daughter and I are having so much fun with it
🎉I’ve been laying in the sun reading almost every day
🎉I redecorated my bedroom (aka the Zen Zone) à la Nancy Meyers
🎉I bought a watercolor kit because I’m feeling artsy

Ok so maybe none of that is big news to you, but to me it all is.

Because I am craving nostalgia, authenticity, art, nature, experiences. I’m resisting rushing, curation, erroneous timelines, doing things just for views or likes, anything AI.

I muted all of the coaches I follow and started following painters, decorators, travelers and authors.

And it’s made me calmer and happier. Who knows, next I might get rid of my phone and go live with the Amish. (Jk but they are extremely amazing- I’ve always been obsessed with them!)

I’ve had some amazing convos in my DMs with a lot of you who are feeling the same way.

So, what comes next? I don’t know. It’s exciting isn’t it? ❤️

Hating photos of yourself is not your fault! ❌

We weren’t trained how to pose and the person taking your photos probably wasn’t trained how to capture you in your most flattering light!

Camera lenses add distortion. You are a 3D human being captured in a 2D photo. Angles and lighting matter.

So let’s talk about it what you can do in every photo to look and feel your best!
✅ Stand up tall through your chest.
✅ Push your chin out and down. Relax your shoulders.
✅ Take a step back and put your weight on the back foot. Whatever is closer to the camera appears largest.
✅ Putting a hand on your waist will add dimension with triangles and accentuate your curves.
✅ Roll your other shoulder back and pin your elbow in.
✅ Relax your forehead, mouth and hands. Wiggle it out as I like to say.
✅ Say hunny or money instead of cheese for a more natural looking smile.

I call these the Posing Commandments™️ and if you practice these they will become second nature. Anyone can learn to pose and become photogenic- it’s a skill like any other. 🎉

Give these a try in front of a mirror to get the hang of them.

And comment CCC if you want even more great tips and tricks for looking and feeling amazing in any photo, anywhere!

I almost quit my photography business in 2018- even though it was the first year I’d ever hit 6 figures!

While I was so thankful to be booked up, I was also overworked, burnt out and missing my kids’ major events.

And I knew I couldn’t be booking 10 shoots a month until I was 65 years old.

It was time to make a change and I thought digital products just might be the answer.

I launched my first digital product- The Ultimate Headshot Posing Guide- for $37… and it went on to bring in over $65,000!

This changed the trajectory of my business and for the last 8 years I’ve created over 20 digital products and courses- to the tune of over $193,000. And this was all while being a full time photographer.

I put everything I’ve learned through the years into a FREE guide called Idea To Income.

Now, you might be thinking to yourself, “What would I even make a digital product about?!” Don’t worry- we go over that and so much more in this guide. 🙌

If I could build this with a full time business and 4 kids, you can do it too!

Comment INCOME below and I’ll send you the link to the freebie 🎉

Just like with anything in life, results vary, past success does not guarantee future results and it is entirely possible to make no money at all. The numbers I’m sharing are not average or expected for the typical person. Your success depends on you and you alone. ✨

Happy sweet 16 to my business! 🎂

In 2010 I bought a used Canon 20D with my tax refund. I had no idea how to use it but I taught myself in between taking care of my 3 kids.

I started with just bo***ir and remember saying to my makeup artist, “I’m going to be the biggest bo***ir photographer in Denver.” How insane of me. 😂 But guess what, I did it.

In 2011 I had another kid. I added beauty, seniors and headshots. I was shooting out of the loft in my 1700 sq foot house. I quadrupled my prices and was booking non-stop.

2015, I moved to Idaho and started from scratch. Still shooting out of my house. We were poor poor poor and I learned a lot of hard lessons about boundaries and customer service during this time.

2018 got my first studio and hit 6 figures. Was working way too much and got burnt out. Changed my pricing structure and added my first associate shooter.

2020 business shut down for months, built my Get the Shot Guide and got a new studio. Added .photo as my associate shooter and became besties.

2021 got my dream 3200 sq foot studio. Had the best time there with my team and clients.

2023 got divorced, closed my studio down, semi-retired from photography.

2024 Dark night of the soul.

2025 Back & better than ever. Mindset was healthy, business was great and opportunities were flowing in.

I have so many crazy stories, miracle events, wild circumstances and more… but the bottom line is being in business for yourself is one of the hardest and most rewarding jobs on the planet. 💯

You will learn so much about yourself and humans as a whole. You will go through some rough times. But if you keep going you will come out the other side better for it and surrounded by your absolute ride or dies. ❤️

Thank you to my family, to my teams over the years, to my amazing clients and to all of my customers. And lastly, as Snoop says, I wanna thank me for being me. 😂😂

If I’ve ever helped you, made you feel more confident, taught you anything or encouraged you in any way I would LOVE if you’d let me know in the comments! 🎈

Thank you 💋

The reason you hate how you look in photos…

Reels can move very fast so I thought I’d do a full length walk-through of the Posing Commandments™️ and some variations.

As I always say, this is something that gets easier with practice. ✅

Posing as a skill that can be learned like any other. And most of us weren’t born knowing how to pose or angle our bodies to look our best in photos. 😫

Posing isn’t about being something you’re not, or tricking anyone. It’s about knowing how to stand and angle ourselves so that we look our best and combat camera distortion- which is a very real thing.

When you know the skills to look your best in any photo anytime, anywhere, taken by anyone, you have the power and the confidence to show up in photos for yourself, for your family, and most importantly if you’re a business owner, for your brand. 🙌

As we get deeper and deeper into the age of AI, real faces are going to make an even bigger impact for your brand and business than ever before.

Learning how to pose will be your secret weapon to showing up and putting yourself out there with confidence, and connecting with your audience in a very real way.

The Camera Confidence Code is over 150 pages of not just posing, but everything you need to know to get yourself camera ready in any situation.

Not to mention I include over 50 specific poses with step-by-step instructions so that you can get amazing photos whether you have a friend taking them, you’re using a timer and a selfie stick, or you’re having a professional photographer take your images.

Comment CCC below, and I will send you the link to grab the Guide and all of the bonuses before the price goes up.

And be sure to follow me for more great tips! Happy posing! 🎉

Did you know that social media using photos and videos performs a WHOPPING 650% higher than test-only posts? 🤯

And did you also know that showing YOUR face results in another 38% more engagement? 😮

Why is this? Because we as humans have an emotional connection when we see a face. Your face humanizes your content and builds trust with your audience.

If you're still hiding behind your logo, a cartoon version of you, or photos of your kids or pets, it is TIME TO CHANGE that! 💯

My team and I have put together something REALLY special for those of you who know you need to be showing up more, but are too scared to do it.

Whether you live in Idaho or somewhere else in the United States, we have an option to help you feel good on camera, look good on camera and have STUNNING visuals you will be psyched to use (and your audience will LOVE engaging with!)

Investing in quality visuals will come back to you multiple times over through your engagement, reach and profit. It is the gift that keeps on giving!

If you know you need help in this area, comment below or send me a PM.

Now, fess up, when is the last time you had your photos done for your brand or business?
