Giving up? Or have you had Enough?

February 25th, 2016 (3 Comments)

“There’s a difference between giving up and knowing when you’ve had enough.” One thing about the 50’s you know when you have had enough. Perhaps it is because you know you are on the other side of that half of a century mark and you know while some people make it to the ripe old […]

Do you feel good enough?

February 23rd, 2016 (No Comments)

Do you feel good enough? In your profession? In your personal relationships? In your life? We are in a world where it is easy to feel as though you are constantly being judged. Judged about everything- your appearance, your weight, your clothing, home, car, partner, education, children, the list goes on and on. In my […]

Is busyness an illness?

February 18th, 2016 (1 Comment)

Is busyness an illness? Yes! Busyness is an illness and I have it bad. This photography business is what has taken me to the edge. There is always something to do, something to finish, someone to call, someone to photograph. Although I love every moment, at times it is a bit much. I sometimes yearn […]

Self Portrait – The ultimate selfie

February 17th, 2016 (No Comments)

Like Frida Kahlo I love doing self portraits. Early in my photography career it was a way to try out different techniques, such as lighting, posing, locations etc.. I would set up my tripod, work on the focus point and jump into the scene and then analyze the result. It became a learning tool, that […]

How to look somewhat put together…

February 16th, 2016 (No Comments)

I find that it takes me so much longer to pull myself together. When I was younger I would just get up, dab a little gloss, a bit of mascara and I was on my way. I could throw anything on and look pretty cute, no matter where the item came from…hmmmmm fast forward to […]

Quote

February 11th, 2016 (No Comments)

As a young woman I loved reading Anais Nin. So when I came across this quote I had to share it… “You live like this, sheltered, in a delicate world, and you believe you are living. Then you read a book… or you take a trip… and you discover that you are not living, that […]

A Slip

February 10th, 2016 (4 Comments)

Yesterday was a full day. Like most days my morning started early. By noon I was desperately trying to score Beyonce tickets with no avail, which is okay- I was only trying to do it for my daughter. I drove into the city to meet a friend at the Pan African film festival, which was […]

Are You In Love?

February 9th, 2016 (No Comments)

Valentine’s Day is a few days away, candy, flowers and gifts will be exchanged between loved ones. February 14th became associated with love during the middle ages, it was believed that the middle of the month was the beginning of the birds mating season hence a day for romance. I will celebrate 27 years of […]

I’m going to “TRI” real hard…

February 8th, 2016 (1 Comment)

Inspiration comes in many ways. I was minding my own business when a client shared she was doing the Pasadena triathlon, one that I participated in last year in the swim portion on a relay team. Then my daughter who just launched a fitness IG browngirlsdoitwell, asked me for a photo from a triathlon I […]
