I don't use AI learning tools to edit your images. One of the benefits of working with me is that when I say I value your privacy that extends beyond sharing finished images online. It includes not putting your intimate images into editing tools that AI learns from. Yes I still use photoshop but I don't use the features that pull images in to teach their AI. And sharing images on social is a different discussion altogether.

I thought a lot about this before deciding using those tools is not the route I would want to take.

I'm curious how you as a client feel. Would you be comfortable with your images, specifically b0ud0ir or n00ds (spelling 🙃) being edited with AI tools?

You became very good at being needed.

Wife. Mother. Boss. Caregiver. Problem solver. The one who remembers. The one who handles it.

You built a beautiful life. And somewhere inside all that becoming, you became harder and harder to find inside it.

You catch yourself in the mirror and have that strange little moment: Who the hell is that? And where did I go?

Here's the part I want you to know:

You didn't go anywhere.

You've been here the whole time.

You've just spent years looking at yourself through everyone else's needs.

You don't need permission to be visible again. You don't need to lose the weight first. You don't need a birthday, an anniversary, a business milestone, or a better version of yourself. And you certainly don't need to become someone new.

You need to see the woman who's already here.

That's what we photograph.

How long are you going to keep waiting for permission to be visible in your own life?

DM me and lets chat about what this experience can mean for you.

I'd love to get back to posting regularly as we're coming up on my busiest b0ud0ir season. I can hardly let you guys know that my calendar is open for the remainder of 26 or that holiday deadlines will be in Mid November if you can't even see my posts. SO here is some super pg images to get you inspired for your upcoming photo session.

Such a sad day. She was a wonderful human being.

Global icon and humanitarian, Dolly Parton, known to the world as a beloved singer, songwriter, philanthropist, actress, playwright, and author died peacefully today in Nashville, Tennessee. She was 80 years old.

Dolly is preceded in death by her beloved husband of 59 years Carl Thomas Dean (1942 – 2025), her mother Avie Lee Caroline Owens (1923 – 2003), and father, Robert Lee Parton, Sr. (1921 – 2000).

A rhinestone life that shone bright enough for the world to see, Dolly will forever stand as an inspiration not only through her timeless music and prolific songwriting, but also her wit, warmth, and kindness that made us all feel like family. Dolly Parton’s legacy is one of love, compassion, and resilience. With a seven-decade career, she inspired multiple generations of artists and fans with her music and an unwavering commitment to making the world a better place. Her songs will continue to resonate with people of all ages, and her philanthropic work will have a lasting impact.

At Dolly’s request, a small, private service will be held for immediate family. Dolly’s fans and friends from around the world are encouraged to pay tribute to Dolly on social media by tagging or by leaving a message at www.dollyparton.com

In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library at www.imaginationlibrary.com
