Ordered sourdough from
@sourdough_by_kari for the “breakfast in bed” shoot ... and am not regretting the fact that we can eat this prop! Locals, you should probably give her a follow. So crusty on the outside, so soft on the inside!

FOR RENT // 50 antique gold candlestick holders ••• If you are a 2021 bride or are planning a fabulous event, you can rent my “collections” (haha- obsessions or hoarding tendencies). I am slowly working on organizing and creating a process to do so. DM to reserve or with questions.

You know you’re approaching 30 when a $99 Amazon shelf makes you happy. But I finally have this baby to continue creating the studio of my dreams. Moments like these make you look back and remember the storage room you started in. The late nights, the intentional or unintentional words of doubt, the setbacks, the milestones. I don’t know who needs to hear this, but I heard so many NOs the past decade. There was also many a YES orchestrated by God. And that’s what matters— holding our talents and endeavors, with an open hand. So here’s a pic that reminds me how good God is and how blessed I am to do what I love. The cherry on top is this year the goal is to design for 2022 Jan-March. And be done. For the year. What? Thanks to a partnership with @pgrahamdunn that happened nearly a year ago. After that it’s preparing for a dear little girl arriving mid May- we cannot wait to meet you! 👶🏻🌸

It’s that time of year where I begin creating digital mood boards, cut out my favorite magazine pages and have a hard time sleeping at night. Yes, I’m that excited to begin shooting and creating product for 2022. Today I visited my fav local “thrift antique store” in Sugarcreek and found a few gems- check it out in stories.

•• The heaviest, most masculine, after shave lotion bottle I ever seen for a men’s card.
•• An antique ground nutmeg tin for a kitchen scene.
•• Some beautiful iron store and more.

My 1 year old broke an ornament and made SO much noise, but we had the best time rummaging through it all. Also worked a deal with my owner/cashier lady friend on using some furniture or larger items for a day or two in shoots. Not bad for a Monday. She also reminded me to never stop in on a Friday- the day her husband runs the shop and “won’t give anyone a good deal.” Passing that one on to my friends.
