Photographic Touch

On Wednesday, I hosted a networking event featuring Tal Koren , a talented young digital marketer who shared invaluable insights about the importance of having a strategic approach to our online presence.

Tal emphasized that posting without a clear strategy can lead to missed opportunities. He also touched on the latest trends shaping the digital marketing landscape, sparking a lively discussion filled with questions from the group.

Although we were a small gathering, the conversations were meaningful and impactful. We also practiced our one-minute speeches, and I took the opportunity to add an extra layer by incorporating the phrase, “I help…” to clarify our value propositions.

Additionally, we delved into the topic of boundaries, a crucial aspect of both personal and professional growth.

A huge thank you to everyone who participated and contributed to the depth of our discussions. Your support means a lot!

Also, a special shoutout to A Dash of TLC for the delicious cookies that made our event even sweeter!

Looking forward to our next meeting in April!

In November, Josie Myers and I were published in Malvie Magazine for their Bold Bo***ir edition volume 39.

Josie ordered the magazine and we did an unvailing video on You Tube.

This is nearly a year of work from planning the concept, styling choices, ordering the wings from Ukraine, finding the right studio, shoot, picking our favorite photos to submit to the magazine, and waiting to be accepted for publication.

Lots of work and a great feeling afterward to see my work in print.

This magazine starts the conversation on woman empowerment and staying authentic.

I want to extend my deepest gratitude to everyone who attended my networking event on October 20th in Brooklin. Your warmth and support made the evening truly special!

A huge thank you to our incredible guest speaker, Alison Albrecht, for sharing her insights on the wellness journey and guiding us through some rejuvenating breath and physical exercises.

I feel so blessed to be surrounded by such inspiring individuals.

The importance of self love

During my Spring photo sessions at , I photographed Doris Hanlon, Managing Director of ADM Access —an organization committed to transforming home environments to meet evolving physical needs or simply to support beautiful, functional upgrades.

From the moment Doris arrived, we clicked. As her session unfolded, I watched her confidence grew with every frame. She came looking for updated profile photos, and what we created together was so much more—images that feel authentic, empowered, and truly her.

Working with professionals like Doris is exactly why I do what I do. Helping someone see their own strength and beauty reflected back at them—that's where the real magic is.

I LOVE working with women who are doing meaningful work, and creating images that reflect the heart behind the person.
