By now we are all aware of the events happening around the world and hopefully we are all following the quarantine order so that this all gets better soon. Photography is a huge passion of mine and dressing up for photoshoots is a lot of fun. While at home I have had to get creative for my photoshoots and take advantage of my self timer and tripod. Hopefully you all are using this situation to be creative, learn new things, and take advantage of the extra time. Make the most of this quarantine, I can say I have not felt this creative...

They came to town just in time to experience new places added to St. Louis. Recently a new restaurant, an aquarium, and a ferris wheel opened up to the public. I was fortunate enough to be able to take off work and...

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!! The time has come for my final Spooktober DIY Halloween costume post. This post is going to be explaining my deer costume. This costume was by far my favorite one because I loved how the makeup, hair, outfit, and pictures turned out. The pictures are too cute, luckily I have a boyfriend that was willing to help me out and he did a great job. I'm glad he was able to be a part of this post, it was a lot of fun and I got to teach him some camera skills. I hope this post helps you...
