YOUR WEEKLY DOSE OF INSPIRATION & UPDATES | 12.19.24

SO GLAD YOU’RE HERE :-)

Hello Beautiful,

Recently, I had a conversation that reminded me just how important it is to pause, reflect, and choose who we want to be moving forward. Sometimes, reinvention isn’t about becoming someone new—it’s about reclaiming the person you always were.

It’s about agency—about choosing to be intentional with the choices that shape our lives. Reinvention isn’t about rejecting who you’ve been; it’s about embracing who you want to be moving forward. It’s about recognizing that you don’t have to accept the slow fade. You can reclaim your sense of self, your identity, and your joy.

Sometimes, it begins with the smallest act of defiance against the routines that no longer serve you. It’s waking up and deciding, “Today, I’ll do this one thing for me.” And then the next day, you do another. Slowly but surely, those small acts build into a life that feels intentional, vibrant, and fully yours.

If you’ve felt like you’ve drifted, know this: you can always come back to yourself. Reinvention isn’t about changing who you are—it’s about choosing who you want to be. And you deserve to be the version of yourself that feels most alive.

And if you want me to be a part of this journey of you back to you—through photography—contact me. I can’t wait to celebrate the incredible person you already are and the one you’re becoming.

What’s one small thing you could do today to start your journey back to you? Whatever it is, let it be yours—and let it remind you of the beauty and strength you already carry within.

This isn’t about becoming someone else. It’s about rediscovering who you are.

INSPIRATION

Book Recommendation for Art & Life Enthusiasts


If you’re looking for a book that’ll pull you into a quieter, more thoughtful headspace, All the Beauty in the World is worth picking up. Written by Patrick Bringley, a former guard at the Met, it’s part memoir, part love letter to art, and all heart. Through his time spent among masterpieces, he reflects on life, loss, and how beauty can change the way we see the world around us. It’s the kind of book that leaves you thinking long after you’ve turned the last page.

FOR YOURSELF

Something Pretty


I can’t help myself—I’m always on the hunt for beautiful slip dresses and delicate pieces to add to my collection. That image at the top of this email? It just hit me that it’s from Victoria’s Secret, and I thought you might want to get it for yourself, especially if you’ve been looking for something stunning to wear for a session with me!

The cami and short set is divine. Here’s the link: Satin Open-Back Cami & Shorts Set.

And while I’m at it, I stumbled across this gorgeous open-back satin slip dress. It’s glorious! Here’s the link to that one: Open-Back Satin Slip Dress.

If you decide to grab one (or both), let me know—I’d love to hear about it!

 

XX, AMY
