When you have outgrown your old identity, you will know it deep within…

Things won’t feel the same, you just feel differently.

With being an established wedding photographer for nearly 20 years, I built an identity that was centered around performance, constant people pleasing (and feeling like I could never make some people happy) and expectations I would put on myself and others…it would be rewarding with the financial aspect of it, but completely draining and like I could never keep my head above water on the other side of it.

The career didn’t define me…but it helped me become more aware of myself, energy and others around me.

I learned that my camera also became a tool of healing…helping people feel comfortable in their skin, guiding them through huge milestone moments in their life and holding space for people to just be themselves.

And now as a sound practitioner, it’s a bit similar to what I was doing with photography except this time it’s with other instruments…my sound bowls, my ocean drum, my Tibetan bowls, chimes, etc.

Helping people come back home to themselves through the sound journey they are meant to have.

I will always come back to the understanding that the medicine is in the work that I do with people…the tools can be interchanged but the outcome is always the same.

And that’s the beautiful thing to always remember and keep in my heart, always💫

This is something I love about these embodied branding shoots tbh! You get to show all aspects of yourself in a multitude of ways🫶🏼

Thank you minnow_photo for capturing me in my essence! Photographer, camera healer, sound healing facilitator and just a human being vibing in her own energy!✨🫶🏼
