Earlier this week I went into my friend Nicole's AMAZING store on Mackinac LITTLE LUXURIES of MACKINAC ... and I am soooo not exaggerating... its awesome... my new favorite place to buy the perfect gift for anyone... girls, guys, brides, mothers, and even your little dog too.
She even carries my favorite product line AMBRE along with tons of good quality lotions, candles, soaps, ... and some pretty darn cool postcards too (okay... they are mine... I'm a bit biased)... wink wink
Seriously if you are on the island you MUST check this place out...
AND MARK YOUR CALENDARS!!! Labor Day weekend Sept 5th I am going to be having a show with all my favorite Mackinac photographs... so come by the store (more details to come)
Happy 4th of July everyone!!
May your weekend be filled with all sorts of great fireworks!!
Love,
A

Last night I was so excited to attend my monthly PUG (Pictage User Group) meeting... this month Kacie Jean organized the amazing Dane Sanders to come and speak to our group.
I was blown away by his lecture... not only because his words spoke directly to us photographers.. but his words spoke directly to ANYONE and EVERYONE. My favorite part...

"You don't need ANYTHING to be what you were made to be"
I love this idea... when you get caught up comparing yourself to others (in ANY field of life... work, love, family, friends... whatever)... you lose sight of what makes youYOU and realizing that what makes youYOU is inherently all you need and you already HAVE it
... and what makes your neighbor your neighbor is inherently theirs... and when we try to compare or gain things that aren't authentically us... then all of a sudden you've added ketchup to an already perfectly cooked filet and in such making it less than what it was to begin with
Dane just wrote this great book... Fast Track Photographer... (I own two copies... yes two).. every photographer should read this book...
May you all be inspired by those around you... and in turn try to inspire others!!
