From the Pale Blue Dot To You

Heard what happened in Charlottesville yesterday, and I'm at a loss. After all the progress this country has made, events like this are the most detrimental to our morale. I thought we cherished the idea of America being a melting pot of cultures and backgrounds! What's so disheartening is that we are fighting over the same thing that we've taken pride in. I'm trying to figure out a rational way to process this. The one thing I see our country needs right now is compassion. And a whole lot of it. I want to take initiative, I want to do my part. I am not the most knowledgable, but I'm willing to have a conversation with anyone. Doesn't matter who you are, let's chat. This doesn't need to be political, I just want to get to know someone. We want to be better. We want to succeed. It's not a crime to help our country succeed either. But...let's not lose our humanity in the process. P.S. Creating art is always a catharsis. Thanks to these ladies for working with me. :) 👸: @rosegoldberg Fashion Stylist: Maägard Designs - @sierrakj94 (at Willamette City Park)

Here's what's up. My mom has been listening to a lot of @coldplay recently. She says one of her favorite songs is "Fix You". That's great, because I absolutely love that song! Also, it's a great addition to the #goodluckfriday deal. ✌😘 Have a wonderful weekend ya'll! P. S. - I took a short break with portraits this week, but will get back to it soooon!

"How should I caption my Instagram photo" Oops, thought I was Googling that. 😓 (at Balboa Park)

As much as I want people to find my account and see my work, there's a big part of me that simply doesn't care. The biggest reason, also truest, I want people to see this is so it opens the door for collaboration. Because people are awesome and I just want to meet everyone! I truly and genuinely value working with others. 🙋 #honestcaptions, thanks to @minda_king. P.S - Also, this is me trying to wield my internal locus of control. ✌ P.P.S - PDX peeps, hit yo boi up. Let's do good. Let's collaborate. Let's be weird.😬🙃🙊

Who's on the Monday grind? What's happening this week?
