What inspires your art?

Movement, textures, authentic emotion, connection

What do you shoot with? Camera body and favorite lens?

Canon 5D Mark IV, i have ONE lens, I literally don't own another, its a Canon 35mm 1.4

What other ways do you express your creativity?

My heart is actually an 80 year old lady. So I like to embroider, or anything with fiber arts.

How do you de-stress at the end of the day?

I do like to read, or aimlessly watch Tik-Tok, but my favorite, is to read reviews on Amazon products. That shit is so damn funny.

What kind of music do you listen to while editing?

Ahhhh!!! My favorite kind of question! Music is my second love. But, Breein do you play an instrument or sing?! No I do not lol BUTTTT I legit could not get through life without my music.
I love everything from The Lumineers to The Grateful Dead, to Lil Wayne. I'm an eclectic soul lol

What is your favorite book?

The Mountain Is You, it legit changed my life.

Name one movie that inspires you.

Dazed and Confused

How do you handle self-doubt or creative slumps?

I pout. And then I take my girls out and make them do things I would never have the balls to do with paying clients.

What has been the most difficult part of your creative journey?

Staying relevant while still staying true to myself and my brand. It's an ever evolving career. Just when you think you've got it down, you don't. Something new and cool is out and I just have to remember to never be comfortable being comfortable.

What is your favorite pizza topping?

So fun fact about me, I recently had gastric sleeve and I can't really eat pizza anymore but for shits and gigs, lets just say mushrooms because thats who I am as a person

What is your most favorite kind of light and why?

100% sunset back light. I live for those sun-flares. They give me life.

Only one?! Ok, my new love is Brittany Grubbs. Everything about what she does I'm in love with.

What is your favorite course or lesson at Unraveled?

Entangled Love Stories with Mari Trancoso. Couples are not my forte but I'm obsessed with her perspective of shooting and her little tips and tricks with creating texture I have added into my client work and love it.
