One of my big goals this year is to finally become One of my big goals this year is to finally become a registered voter. I knew it wasn’t going to be easy considering the pandemic and how our usual process goes. But it was something I had to do. It is something that would create an impact. I am only one person, but my vote counts. Every vote counts. It will and it can!🙋🏻‍♀️

Visit the website on my post if you haven’t registered yet! Everything is there including the forms you’ll need!

Let’s spread the word and encourage others to get registered too!☺️

It was a random idea, I messaged Roxci (we didn’ It was a random idea, I messaged Roxci (we didn’t know each other personally but I follow her on Instagram) I told her I will be in San Diego, asked her if she wants to do a shoot, and she said yes!🤍

This was one of those moments where I wanted to put myself outside of my comfort zone because that’s the time where growth happens. For one, I get nervous meeting new people. I also left my trusty full frame camera and decided to use my #fujifilmxa5 with it’s kit lens.☺️

I love how it turned out. It shows how important it is to utilize what’s available to you at the moment. You don’t have to have the “best” gears to start creating. Work with what you have.☺️ 

I still get nervous meeting new people, and I know it’s something I can overcome by just facing it.☺️ I have been collaborating with people I meet online for the longest time, some I am still friends with to this day.🤍

Roxci and Vergs are just two kind souls! They are so sweet and fun! Wish we had more time but I’m really just grateful I got to meet them.☺️ Thank you so much Roxci and Vergs!
A random early morning muni-muni: If you know me A random early morning muni-muni:

If you know me well, you’ll know how firm I am with my values and beliefs. You’ll know how intentional I am with the things I choose to do. I am compassionate but I also know how to stand up for myself. If you know me well and I trust you, you’ve probably seen me dance silly, attempt to reach a high note, or laugh hysterically. Oh and you most probably have seen me cry or get frustrated.🌝

If you know me well, you know that I have a lot of growing to do, I am not always as firm and as intentional as I want to be. But I always find my way back. Often with the help of people I love.🤍

Just this morning, I sent love notes to people I am grateful for. If I haven’t sent you one but opened up to you just recently, do know that I am sincerely grateful for you.🤍

I also need to give myself gratitude. I don’t think I give myself enough credit. I make an effort to grow - I allow myself to feel pain, and “discomfort” (thanks for this fairly accurate term Beffy) when necessary. I hold myself accountable for my actions and I show up, even if sometimes it means being vulnerable and exposing a piece of my heart.❤️
I am not referring to anybody at the moment.😂 B I am not referring to anybody at the moment.😂 But I did write this that time when somebody kept frustrating me and I just didn’t want it to have control over me anymore.

This may or may not resonate with you but if it did, which one do you think is the most powerful?☺️

Also, some typos: *we’re, *came off 😂
It helps my creative mood when I experiment, and p It helps my creative mood when I experiment, and produce something. Pre-pandemic, I would collaborate with friends, or strangers, even!😂 But for now, I made do with what’s available. Myself, and a little portion in my room, where the light hits just right!🤍

Filing this under quarantine self portraits and definitely something I would love to explore doing more of - if there are willing volunteers!🌝 

I used my favorite combo #NikonZ6 and #85mmsigmaart 🤍

I’m currently reading “This is Marketing” by I’m currently reading “This is Marketing” by Seth Godin. I’m only on Chapter 6, but so far, I really recommend this book for those building their own brand/s! So far, the idea it revolves in (for the first few chapters at least) is that marketing is a way to reach out to people you seek to serve and make change happen.☺️

Reading this morning made me want to share about @sundaymorningstudios and what I think allowed us to grow for 9 years - and counting! It’s our purpose! Yup, nothing fancy, just the most important words that our brand live by. Here it goes:

“Creating inspired and honest photographs that make people happy and treating each wedding with respect and kindness like it’s our own sister, brother, or a dear friend’s wedding.”

No high-faluting words. Straight to the point and well, just honest. It’s easy to understand and keep in mind. I can’t count how many times these simple words have saved and guided us. 

One of the ways we came up with it was putting ourselves in the shoes of the people we seek to serve. I’ve been asked so many times who I’d want to capture my wedding (when the time comes) and ultimately, I really just want timeless photographs and a team that would respect the event as if it was their own.☺️

So there! Just some thoughts on a Saturday morning! Hope it somehow helps you just in case you’re building your own brand.🤍

Stay safe guys!
