POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

At the end of last year I was able to spend some intimate time with some of my favorite artists and small business owners. I can’t thank these individuals enough for welcoming me into their spaces!

It started small … a photo project with artists. I just wanted to practice and hang out .. but I didn’t expect to have so much fun.

On top of it all, I was realizing just how impactful these photos could be for each of them.

When you are owning and operating a small business there are SO MANY THINGS you have to do on top of your craft. It can be hard to dedicate time, money and resources to promotion, let alone photography and video services.

All of these humans deserve our attention, and don’t worry, I’ll give them each their own post over the next week!! Today is just a soft launch 😉. I don’t want this project to stop here.
