I met many of these women two years ago at this Magical Media Retreat. This was my third time attending and I loved every moment. I met new friends and got to hang out with many that I’ve kept up with over the last few years.

We met Vanessa ✨ I have a project to share soon with Chat Books; who taught us a super easy Easter craft ✨ Stephanie at who lives only two miles away from me and isn’t afraid of my Pantry! Check her out! And of course Kim - , Justine - .justine, and Jennie - . We heard from all of these incredible women that We are the Magic and to be ourselves!

You all know I’m not the best on socials but I LOVE to see your stories, SUPPORT you in your journeys, share my LOVES of family, friends, photography and thrifting!

Thank you to all of these sponsors who make this weekend amazing! .home
I’ll share more of these products soon

Thank you Justine, Jennie & Kim for a fabulous retreat!

Happy Valentine’s Day from the desert 🌵
I’m having an unconventional Valentine’s Day this year. I was asked to volunteer at a Covid-19 Vaccine POD in a nearby town as Traffic Control!
So, if y’all happen to be driving by Highland High school, give us a beep-beep💕
I already know that I’ll come home and go right to bed💕 So, I hope y’all have a fabulous day!
Stay safe and Happy ❤️ Day! Save some chocolate for me.

How long have you dreamed about your wedding?
✨
As a little girl, I played with Barbie, dressed her up in her tiny heels and strapless lace wedding dress and walked her down the aisle to Ken. Then they drove off happily ever after in the Barbie bus!
✨
Now I dream of photographing beautiful desert weddings. My “toys” may look a whole lot different but I would love the opportunity to work with you.
✨
Tell me, what are you dreaming of this weekend?
