Earlier this year we traveled to Miami, Florida we had an opportunity to visit Wywood Walls. The art and exhibits were great, colorful and fun. Although it was blazing hot outside we enjoyed the walk and picture taking fun of such a colorful location.

Meanwhile earlier today we had a busy picture taking day! We started off with a high school senior photo session which took place at a nice location in downtown Atlanta. We finished up the session and headed to the next event. We captured images for a bridal shower. It was a beautiful day to capture beautiful memories and I was glad to be apart of it!
Happy Saturday!

Throwback Thursday!
We got together with fellow photographer and friend Bryant Andrews (Sky Love Photography) to photography some brand images in studio. We had a list of ideas for the shoot and one in particular we decided to try it was a photo turned upside down on the coach. The photo idea looked super cool in on the inspiration board.
By the the time I decide to flip upside down for the photograph things went all the way wrong. I lost my balance, Bryant didn’t say much but he knew the idea was not that great.
Here’s to say you may have a great idea for an image but not all ideas are great ones. Still try the ideas somethings may work and some may not. You will never know until you try!

In 2017, I worked with an up and coming photographer name Jayce the Artist. I hired her to shoot birthday pictures of me with me being always behind the camera it’s weird for me to be in front of the camera. The truth of the matter is I’m actually shy. So when being photographed it helps me to pretend, act & be silly. Pretending and acting silly loosens me up and allows me to get photos captured.
This photo session is one of my favorite shoots to date. In addition to the beautiful images captured during the session she also sent a video of us behind the scenes which turned out to be the biggest surprise.
I was so overjoyed and happy.
I cannot begin to describe how I felt when I received my electronic transfer of images and behind the scenes surprise video gift.
The way I felt after receiving my deliverables from the shoot, I vowed that day to insure the clients that work with my company Kustom Kreation Photography have a chance to experience the same joy I felt when I opened my email to receive my images!
My favorite photo I had it blown up to a poster size images it’s my background image on my computer and I regularly use it as a motivational and affirmation post on my social media pages.

When I was growing up I was fascinated by my teachers and their books, agendas and one the the biggest things writing on the chalkboard. Ooh wee that my fantasy to write on the chalkboard. As a youngster I wanted to have students and give them lessons that I could teach them.
One day my parents finally bought me a chalkboard and I would try and gather my little brother to be a student , that didn't last long. It would be a long time later that I realize I have a passion for providing information to people. I'm just realizing that my dreams of being a teacher has always been there and that I'm not the lady in elementary classroom with twenty children. I'm the lady that is able to take information I've learned and teach my friends and fellow business associates things that I've learned that may benefit something that they are doing. My folks are pretty appreciative of my efforts :)

It’s Our Photography Anniversary!
As we celebrate our 16 years of picking up our camera and deciding to take photographs we are reminding of the beginning.
When I began to go through the history of how this all began it really amazes me on how we come to be. I remember being a little girl and always wanting to do business stuff. Whether I was playing on a cash register or had a notebook(receipt book) or a purse /briefcase full of miscellaneous papers. I always remember wanting to be in business and do business by servicing my customers. when begin to think of how all those childhood dreams came to life it really amazes me on what you think can really happen. I’m blessed to be able to do this photography and more thing for these last past years. It really has shown me what I was capable of .
Cheers to 16 years and counting!

Building a Brand 2009
The year was 2009 in this year we begin creating and selling customized party decorations.
As we were developing our party decor business and capturing images of our products and posting online we begin to build a wonderful fanbase that like our images and shared our business with others in their network with this type of organic support we were able to grow sell our business and services with a regular flow of orders.
At the time it was so amazing to develop something put it out on social media and begin to get inquiries and orders.

We will always be thankful for these humble beginning all of the clients that supported us by ordering our items and sharing our work with others for that we are grateful that we have this story to tell.

Very earlier on in our journey of photography we begin capturing behind the scene of events and capturing portfolio building images for vendors. I learned early on the importance of having clean crisp images for your brand and services . I also learned that good images will sell your product or service.
So I begin to capture images that I could provide to vendors (at an event) to assist them in building their brand and service. It also helped in establishing good working relationships and networking. They would pass your name to other people that were looking for a good reliable photographer.
Side Note: Look at any of your favorite brands and look how they present their products and services to you. When looking at your favorite brands you don’t see their service or products represented with dark, grainy low quality images.
For record neither should you!
Investing quality images is a must when building your business brand & service.
It’s our Anniversary! Cheers to 16 years!

We started this mantra back in 2011-2012 it seem as though Mondays for most people was a drag so in order to lift the spirits and look at things in a more positive light I start looking a Mondays as a day to make moves; Whether getting ready for work, school, exercise, clean house, rest up from weekends, or making a move back to bed.
Monday was the start of the work week and we were on a mission top make a move, make it a mission and I used feet, shoes on different persons to represent making moves.
It is through our feet that we are are to move about and be carried from one point to another. So Monday Motivation is representing by the question being ask statement being said; It’s Make Moves Monday followed by the Question: What moves are you making today???
So Mondays are always going to be a day to motivate ourselves, to live our best life and see that we are on a mission to move something (Best Luke Sky Walker Voice)
It’s Our Anniversary!
Cheers to 16 years!

The Key Formula to Life is our thoughts and our thinking. All during this journey to build a business and me that would be successful and make money we have learned in this building process there is no such thing abra cadabra hocus pocus magical thing you can do the success in anything you do comes from the level of thoughts you have. If you have faith it will & can be done than it will be done.
While building in this photography and having a steady flow of customer we were learning in the business but just as important we were working on self development that would help us be a better person in the business and to believer that what we were doing is all worth it. So the key formula :
Get your thoughts together.

My Goal is to create and publish one day. When I first got on IG in the early days I didn’t get on to attract followers and build business, I actually joined to showcase images that I’ve captured. I looked at it as a Digital coffee table book and I did that for years. As I would grab favorite images from some of my special event and photo sessions we than went on to caption our images with one word that described the picture.
As time went on and our Instagram account shifted with a different set of goals the desire to publish a Coffee table book is one that we still have in mind. So one day soon you will see images we’ve captured over the years published in our very own Coffee Table Book
It’s Our Anniversary! Cheers to 16 years!

If you are looking for ways to shift your mindset and do something different in your life here are three things that you can start today
Exercise – start today and do 30 minutes of exercise. You can start as simply as walking around your neighborhood. If 30 minutes is too much to take on start with 10 minutes a day and start to increase as you get more comfortable with the routine
Sit Quietly and Meditation – (I actually do a 7 minute mediation daily preferable before I go to bed at night) I use this meditation music to assist Click here!
Change up your daily routine
ex: if you drive a same route to work everyday switch up your route to a different one ; do something different afterwork ; pick out a different hang out spot; try something new to eat.
