Welcome back! It’s officially been a week since I launched the podcast (still wrapping my head around that), and today I’m diving into a big one, AI.

Whether you’re hesitant, curious, or somewhere in between, the truth is: AI is here to stay. But how do we embrace it without losing the heart of what makes our work so personal and creative?

In this episode, I’m sharing:

• A quick history of AI (it’s been around way longer than you think!)

• The mindset shift that helped me see AI as a creative tool, not a threat

• Practical, everyday ways I’m using AI in my photography business

• Real talk about staying adaptable, especially when you're balancing motherhood and solo entrepreneurship

• A story about helping a photographer friend create a client email funnel—with the help of ChatGPT—that finally got her unstuck and moving forward

• Why resisting change won’t serve us, but intentional, ethical use of AI can

  • Lightroom’s AI-powered masking & object removal

  • ChatGPT for email writing, idea generation, and more

In this episode of Eat, Sleep, Create, Repeat, I’m diving into one of my favorite parts of photographing families: capturing those real, honest moments. I’m sharing how I’ve moved away from stiff, traditional posing and into guiding my clients through natural interactions that lead to images full of connection and emotion.

I’ll walk you through how I set the tone for relaxed sessions, what I pay attention to when observing family dynamics, and the kinds of prompts I use to bring out genuine connection.

If you’re ready to create images that feel like something—and not just look pretty—this episode is for you.

In this episode, I’m sharing the one thing I always do after a slow season to get the creative juices flowing again—and no, it’s not diving straight into work.

We’re talking about the kind of project that refuels your creativity, reminds you why you picked up a camera in the first place, and helps you avoid that burnout spiral before it starts. I’m sharing a personal story from a session that truly lit me up—plus practical ideas to help you get back into the swing of things.

Whether you're feeling stuck, unmotivated, or just not quite ready to shift back into the new year, this one’s for you.

In the very first episode of the Eat, Sleep, Create, Repeat podcast, I’m diving into something so many of us experience —living on autopilot. As a family photographer, I’ve noticed how easy it is to slip into routine, and how that can quietly start to dull our creativity.

Did you know we spend nearly half our day on autopilot? I unpack what that really means for us as creatives and how it can impact the way we shoot, connect, and create. I’m sharing a few personal stories, how I’ve learned to recognize when I’m stuck in that mode, and some simple ways to break out of it so we can show up more intentionally in our work.

I’ve also included some creative prompts to help you shake things up and make images that actually feel like you.

Let’s get into it—because making meaningful work starts with paying attention.
