Are you a Rose?
She’s tender. She’s sincere. She sees the good when no one else does.
Rose is the brand voice for the woman who leads with heart.
She’s been overlooked, underestimated, and told she’s "too soft."
But don’t mistake gentleness for weakness.
She carries peace into chaos,
joy into hard places,
and kindness that actually changes things.
Her stories may wander—but her love is rooted.
Her words may be sweet—but her presence is strong.
This voice is for the woman who heals with hugs,
leads with compassion,
and proves that tenderness is still a superpower.

Are you a DOROTHY?
She’s sharp. She’s structured. She’s not here for nonsense.
Dorothy is the brand voice for the woman who’s been burned,
who uses wit as a shield and wisdom as a weapon.
You’ve been dismissed. You’ve had to lead without applause.
You’ve carried others while quietly breaking.
But underneath the sarcasm?
There’s heart. There’s healing. There’s a teacher ready to rise.
This voice is for the woman who’s done performing.
She doesn’t chase spotlight—she carries substance.
And when she speaks?
People listen.

I was overwhelmed.
Not just with the content.
But with the pressure to do it all perfectly.
To be consistent, creative, present, polished… and somehow not exhausted.
I tried every planner.
Every strategy.
Every schedule.
But nothing clicked until I stopped trying to fit into someone else’s blueprint—and started building a system that fit me.
Now I use tools that make sense to my brain.
I create in the margins of real life.
And I follow peace, not pressure.
If you’re craving a system that works with your personality—not against it—I’d love to help you figure that out.
Let’s chat: DM me the word STRATEGY or tap the link in bio to book a clarity call.
We’ll find your rhythm together.

We live in a world that tells us to build a name for ourselves.
To be known for our work, our brand, our roles.
But the truth?
You don’t earn your identity.
You inherit it.
👑 Your crown came from the cross—not your credentials.
Your calling flows from who you are in Him, not what you do for Him.
You’re not “just” a mom.
Or “just” a creative.
Or “just” a business owner trying to make it all work.
You are chosen.
Seated.
Set apart.
Loved before you ever lifted a finger.
And yes—your work matters.
Yes, your calling is holy.
But not because it’s flashy.
Because it’s faithful.
Psalm 90:17 says:
“May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us;
Establish the work of our hands for us—yes, establish the work of our hands.”
Whether you’re baking bread or running a business…
homeschooling kids or healing patients…
creating content or washing dishes…
You’re walking out the Great Commission.
So stop trying to earn what was already given.
Instead—return it.
Return it with your hands.
With your heart.
With your gifts.
💛 Like or share if you're reclaiming your identity in Christ—one ordinary moment at a time.
You were crowned for this.

This is me in 2017—holding a camcorder at church.
No mic.
No audience.
No Instagram strategy.
Just a nudge from God and a whole lot of awkward obedience.
I didn’t know what I was doing.
I just knew I couldn’t keep sitting on the gifts He gave me.
It didn’t look holy.
It didn’t feel profitable.
And to be honest—it didn’t feel like it was working.
But now I see it for what it really was:
A seed.
A sacrifice.
A small yes that shook the dust off something bigger.
Let this be your reminder:
You don’t have to start with clarity.
You just have to start with conviction.
He’ll grow the rest.
If this made you tear up a little (me too), do me a favor:
💛 Like or share this post so another woman knows her small beginning matters too.
You’re not too late.
You’re just on time.

Not every woman was handed a legacy.
Some of us had mothers and grandmothers who sang hymns over our lives and planted churches in small towns. Some of us are the first in our family to speak the name of Jesus and mean it.
My grandmother was a hymnal-singing, Jesus-loving, Holy Spirit-following woman.
She helped plant a church in a tiny town in South Georgia.
She didn’t call it a “brand”—but her life was one.
Marked by faith.
Lived in surrender.
Passed on through generations.
Paul told Timothy:
"I am reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice..." (2 Tim 1:5)
Some of us were raised by Lois and Eunice.
Some of us are becoming them now.
We are torchbearers.
Whether someone lit it for us—or we’re lighting it ourselves.
And yes, we’re building businesses.
But more than that—we’re building generational identity in Christ.
That’s the real brand. The one that lasts.
If you’ve ever wondered if your story matters, if your start is too small, or if your voice even counts...
Let this be your reminder:
Your obedience is the spark.
It’s not just for you.
It’s for your children, your children’s children, and the ones you’ll never meet.
If this brought you LIGHT please share with others who are searching for their spark.

We did this shoot on MONDAY! My heart beams with joy over my son's choice to do this shoot and proclaim his faith yet at the same time my heart breaks over the students who struggle to find hope, joy, and peace...
I am moved to action and will definitely be reaching out to those in administration - if you are in education and love JESUS - DM if you want to be featured on Heart Dive.

GOALS: Community Building
Gathering souls together is a passion of mine where you can share stories, laughter, and connection, where every thread weaves a unique narrative.
🌟 Today, I'm reflecting on the beauty of community - a space where hearts are seen.
💖 In the embrace of gathering as an action and not a sentiment, I find strength, and the courage to help others shine brighter through small intimate group photo sessions for team building.
✨ Let's celebrate the power of gathering together for common goals, missions, and visions - where our voices and stories can be shared collectively.

Ups and downs.
Don't let life get you down.
Find the joy that keeps you moving forward.
Running a business is a choice.
I could find a 9-5 with a pension and 401k but I have chosen to CONTINUE to stay home and be available for my kids.
or perhaps...
You are working the 9-5 and NEED this little business to grow into financial freedom.
You won't get there if you give up and keep making excuses.
Let's make a few sacrifices and keep showing up.

My Story
Holly Rigos Photos and Films is dedicated to creating long-lasting memories from your everyday life. I will creatively piece together a movie comprised of your "home videos" such as "A year in Review" or "Our Child's First Year".
I'm a good ole' southern girl, making her way up north, one winter at a time! Between raising three kids, working out when I can, and catching Fixer Upper on HGTV, I have turned what was once a hobby into my own business.
Being away from my family in Georgia meant lots of photo texts, video emails, and sending little snippets of our life. However, it felt incomplete! I began knitting the best of our moments together, with music that captured our love and faith, and sending it home.
Now our extended family see who we ARE and not just what we DO. Before long, I began editing videos for family and friends. Now, I help bridge the gap between your moments creating one seamless video story, without the steep cost of traditional videographers.
As a work-at-home-mom, my main pursuit is providing excellent care and support for my family. However, I feel that the Lord has called me to serve others through video/film. Currently, I am just starting this endeavor and would love to offer you a quality product with care and attention to detail at a budget friendly price.
