Currently in my season of “Yes” (and “more, please”)

Saying “Yes” has already taken me to some wild places and opened some unexpected doors. I’m actively rewiring that part of my brain that insists on hyper-analyzing or needs to know the outcome before starting. Basically, if my initial reaction is met with intrigue, the answer is an automatic yes. Let the chips fall where they may or as I tell my girls: “everything is figure out-able”

While I already believed in magic, surrendering to endless possibility makes me feel like the best is yet to come ✨

An intimate and unforgettable evening with Black Beauty Club at The Twenty Two New York. The conversation between June Ambrose and her daughter Summer Chamblin, moderated by founder, Tomi, was a masterclass in grace, wisdom, and generational love. So many of us were moved by June’s approach to beauty, parenting, and legacy. Plus, the bond between her and Summer spoke louder than words ever could.

Special thanks to Clinique for the thoughtful gift bags and to for capturing the night so beautifully.

The thing no one tells you about being a professional creative: you spend so much time making brands look alive, you forget you’re the one with the pulse.

Adrian Adel. Phenomenal Photographer. Powerhouse Singer. Extraordinary Mother. One of the realest, most outstanding humans I ever had the privilege of knowing.

I first met Adrian back in 2008, shortly after returning to Portland from Los Angeles. She was one of the first photographers I shot with. And I was very vocal about her being the best and my favorite. Adrian had a way of making you feel truly seen. The way many of her favorite shots of me were close ups was not lost on me. She’d gush over my features, bone structure and how they inspired her. It made me feel special, like her lens wasn’t just documenting— it was celebrating.

I’m heartbroken to hear of her passing, but grateful to have been part of her creative journey. Adrian’s genius was unparalleled, and her light lives on in her body of work, the creatives she’s inspired, and most of all, in her pride & joy: her son.

In her honor, the Go Fund Me link to support her son during this time is in my bio. And may we all remember her art, her energy, her passion, and the way she lifted everyone who stood in her light and in front of her lens. 🌹🕊️🤍

Candids, culture, and a reminder to tell your rich friends about my art stuff

I recently wrote about one of my faves, Lorna Simpson, and her incredible relationship with “the process.” Funny how life imitates art because spotting her work in a new spot I dined at a week later invigorated a special part of my brain. I’m still riding that high. Anyway, read more on Homegirl World.
