Stay Fit While Working From Home | 7 Quick Hacks

February 6, 2017

I’m currently writing this post sitting on my couch in my snowflake print sweater leggings. In very few other careers would I have the “freedom” to wake up and stay in my PJ’s all day, every day for weeks on end. Okay, maybe not weeks… but sometimes, us creative business owners do go a few days without putting actual clothes on. I didn’t think I would ever actively have to think about how to stay fit while working from home. You think you’re not…

I would show up to a shoot SO nervous about this one particular aspect of my job.

October 19, 2016

One of my goals for this new online space was to provide a place for growing business owners and fellow creatives to gather resources and learn about how to perfect their craft and create sustaining and life-giving businesses. I’m JUST as passionate about the back-end of my business as I am the shooting/posing/photography side! I could be shooting 8 weddings a month and making $500,000 a year, but if I don’t have room for LIFE at the end of the day…
