It’s been a minute… and that’s because life has been a little chaotic over here.
Keith and I decided to go all in and officially blend our families, so the kids and I packed up our lives and moved into his bigger house. There were boxes everywhere, kids everywhere, emotions everywhere… but we’re finally starting to settle into our new normal.
Through all the moving madness and family merging, I’m still running The Seaside Shutterbug and Ever After Home Decor — because apparently I don’t know how to sit still.
Things are calming down, creativity is kicking back in, and new content is coming soon… so stay tuned.
Chaos, but make it beautiful. 🙌🏻🔥❤️

Power, tension, and raw Southern myth collide in Alligator Bender 🐊✨
Created in 1937 by sculptor Nathaniel Choate, this striking work—carved from Italian marble—captures a n**e man locked in a dramatic struggle with an alligator. Every muscle is alive with motion, every second frozen at the peak of danger and dominance.
Nestled within the breathtaking grounds of Brookgreen Gardens in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Alligator Bender is more than a sculpture—it’s a story of humanity versus nature, strength versus survival, and the fearless spirit that refuses to back down.
Brookgreen’s ability to blend fine art with the wild beauty of the Lowcountry makes moments like this unforgettable.

MAY I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE - SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS PLEASE STAND UP!

🎅🎁 Alright friends — it’s that time of year again! This holiday season I’m making it my mission to shop small and support my friends’ businesses (because let’s be honest, Jeff Bezos does not need another yacht 🛥️😂).
If you’ve got a biz — local, online, or somewhere in between — drop your link below (Facebook, Insta, Etsy, carrier pigeon, whatever works 🕊️).
Also, invite me to like your page if I haven’t already! I’m putting together my gift list and would much rather buy from you amazing humans than some giant corporation. 💕
Let’s make this holiday season extra awesome — and keep our money in the hands of cool people we actually know 😎✨

🌿✨ Thinking of Starting Something New… ✨🌿
I’ve had a couple of friends recently ask me to create seasonal wreaths, centerpieces, and lanterns for them — and it got me thinking… why not turn this into a little second side hustle alongside my photography? 🧶📸
Crafting has always been something that helps me relax and stay grounded, and I absolutely love bringing a bit of seasonal charm into people’s homes. So I’m putting feelers out — would you be interested in having me create something custom for you? Whether it's fall wreaths, holiday centerpieces, or cozy lanterns, I’d love to hear what you'd be into! 🍁🎄🕯️
Also, if you're a fellow craft-lover and have experience selling at craft fairs or festivals — especially around the Myrtle Beach area — I’d really appreciate any advice or tips. I'd love to pick your brain a bit as I explore this new path. 😊
Drop a comment or message me if you're interested or have any advice — and thanks so much for the support as always! 💛
