When you’re searching for a little magic and a reminder that life really is beautiful, sometimes all you have to do is look ✨up✨

When Mother Nature really shows off so you don’t need to do much editing…

Snapped this pic after the most amazing evening with friends. We discussed healing tips, accountability, the power of intentionality and so much more and this was our backdrop 😍

As many Americans joyously celebrate the nation’s Independence Day today, so many of us ironically feel a sense of emptiness.

For me, I feel called to honor our Ancestors in a “rebellious” yet intentional act of self-preservation and rememberance that while many observe today as a day of independence, today also marks the intentional continuation of one of the most barbaric forms of oppression that originated in one of these homes, continued across one of the largest bodies of water in the world and long after July 4th, 1776.

So today my heart is with my Ancestors, today my mind is rooted in honoring my experience in Senegal and my love goes out to everyone who is experiencing conflicting feelings about what this day represents.

Happy Monday 🖤

For years, I’ve loved photographing doors as I’ve always viewed them as more than entryways but openings to different worlds, portals and experiences.

So many come to Gorée Island, Senegal to see the “Door of No Return” but I wonder if people ever come and admire the doors of everyday returns, of every day people and of everyday life.

I can’t wait to show you Senegal from my lens 📸
