PRIVACY ALERT - Ladies, if you stay logged in to your personal dropbox to view a folder in this industry, your personal details do show up on the other side. I keep EVERY DETAIL private all times and appreciate the trust but please be careful when dealing with new photogs.
Someone asked me recently why I don't post anything on twitter myself, only retweet. It's for your privacy. Once you are done with this world, the last thing you need to be doing is frantically combing through every social media account, asking for your stuff to be taken down.
Well. Had me a bit of a health scare - but turns out I am not going blind and the ol' eyesies are just dry af. I can shoot and retouch to my heart's desire and until the end of time!! Mini wave of celebration everybody!
People - I have one word for you : matcha! I've discovered it. The taste is a bit questionable but the productivity levels are unmatched...I guess that's more than one word, but that's how productive I am feeling.
PSA : The reason self tanner/spray tans should be done at least FIVE days before a shoot is because, otherwise, the areas where the product is applied will shoot fluorescent orange and difficult to match to the rest of you (i.e. feet, hands and face). There I said it.
PSA - I run three businesses and am not on here often. If I do not retweet something or follow you back, please do not take it personally. I am busy and social media is not often a priority. I am thankful for all the mentions and retweet whatever I catch. 💕
Ladies - if you are reaching out for the first time without a reference, please provide a little bit of info about yourselves. I am very selective with new clients and one liner emails do not get a reply.

I am, however, an enthusiastic re-tweeter so thank you for the tags, ladies!! Moving forward in 2020, I am thinking to post tips & ideas for shoots and stir the pot with some unsolicited advice - so - stay tuned!
You may have noticed that I am not posting photos anymore on Twitter. This is because if someone (other than you) posts a photo and tags u in it, it will not be removed (even when u close ur account) unless you ask them to do it. To me - that's an extra headache you don't need.
I am looking for a hoodie that says I am a cool when I wear it. What brand of hoodie would that be? Also must be warm and cozy because I don't like to be cold - especially not on the plane. But I must appear cool at all times.
To me, a great photo goes way beyond what someone looks like - passport photos serve that purpose well enough. It's about telling a story you can't express with words - and leaving the viewer with that slight feeling of wonder and excitement that they can't quite explain.
I think that if you remember ALL your passwords, you are genius of the modern world. ..Me - I keep it fresh and spicy by resetting Every.Single.Time because I can't remember sh*t. I have no more passwords left in me

Ladies, please do not tweak or edit your retouched photos - ask your photographers to do it for you. Even if you mean well, your edits end up misrepresenting their work.
BTW - the way avoid this is 1) log out of your personal dropbox BEFORE accepting the invite and then 2) log into your work account and accept the invite
Ladies who get dip manicures - how do you deal with the fact that the colour on the swatch you pick out is NOWHERE near what it looks like in reality? Is it just me?
Ladies - if you unsubscribe from my mailing list, I can't add you back on. So - think twice before you jump ship as we won't be coming back around to get you🏝️⛵️
