I have just 3 spots open for next month- DM me if you’re interested or tag a friend you know needs this!

Still Here. Still Growing. Still Becoming - Life after 40 isn’t the end of the story — in many ways, it’s where a new chapter begins. Handful and Hustle, LLC

Our latest feature, Still Here: What a Photo Shoot Taught Me About Life After 40, is a beautiful reflection on confidence, purpose, self-discovery, and the reminder that joy, beauty, and possibility do not fade with age.

Sometimes stepping outside your comfort zone becomes the very thing that helps you see yourself differently. Stronger. Wiser. More fully you.

This article is for every woman who has ever wondered if she still matters, if it’s too late, or if there’s more ahead. The answer is yes.

Posing cues from your photographer really should be part of the deal, every time!

It makes the process so much smoother and more enjoyable.

My clients comment about it all the time- how the session was so much more fun and all the different poses are fun to try and fun to pick from at their ordering apt.

Not every pose will be your favorite, but you will for sure find some new favs! And you might be totally surprised by what works and what was total 🔥 even though it felt like you weren’t pulling it off.

Also in this video, you can see what a total nerd- I mean ARTIST- I am about my lighting. Great posing and lighting really set a session apart!

If you have been watching from the sidelines- maybe because you aren’t confident about posing, or maybe something else is holding you back- here’s your sign!

It’s your turn! Take the leap! Click the link in the bio to book a call with me OR just DM me, and we will flip your hesitation into the best part of your experience!

Is anyone else running a small biz and frustrated with the reach that social media promises vs what actually happens? (5% of your followers actually see your posts!)

Ever had your account hacked or shut down?

I started a group for women in business to network and learn. It totally fills my cup to connect and cheer people on.

This month my new pal, Kathy Farah, is going to share some of her knowledge about how to be way more effective by connecting with clients via email.

After 5 years of heavy hustling to up my game on the experience for my clients, I’ve created a list of ways to partner with your photographer and guarantee an amazing experience that ends up being nothing short of transformational, when you implement them.

Yesterday, I hosted a networking & education event for women in business at my studio, and it was not by any means perfect, but it was completely WONDERFUL! I loved having everyone there & the goodwill between everyone was so high.

So MANY times, I’d be talking to a few ladies, one would walk away to the next convo, and do you know what the other lady would say behind her back?? She would say, “I LOVE her. She is so cute/cool/funny/smart. I want to be friends with her!”

Isn’t that just the best? It happened on repeat, and I am just so here for that. I also heard people saying positive things directly to each other, many many times, and I just love that this is the crowd that came out.

If this sounds like the group for you, comment below and I’ll send you an invite with details on the next one and a link to the online group.

I am a bit of an odd-ball when it comes to networking.

I love it.

Most of the time when “networking” comes up, people groan. Here’s the thing for me though- I love people (weird, I know) and I am a total business nerd. Networking for me is all about connecting and celebrating.

So if I run into you somewhere and you tell me about your business, watch out. I’m maybe about to become your next biggest fan.

If you are a woman in business and you could use a hype-girl, sign up at the link below and get your ticket, and come over to my studio this Friday afternoon.

We will learn stuff. We will celebrate progress. There will be snacks.
