  1. This is your sign to take videos in high quality on rear camera and screenshot your fav snaps 👏🏻👏🏻😘😘 Don’t have a trained bf? Nobody around to take pics?? Don’t know your angles?? Grab a tripod (or prop it up in a good spot like me) and ⚡️💖BOOM💖⚡️ - -

  2. Hi 🤠 I realize I’m gaining some new traffic/ followers so I thought I’d do a little “about me” post for those of you who don’t know me well or at all. I recently made a big move to Dallas, TX from Iowa!! I always wanted to get out of Iowa and discover what life is like in a bigger, faster moving city! 🏙️ I have been making women more confident/beautiful with my career as a hair colorist/stylist for 10 years 🥳 <<@hair.by.dahly>> So it’s no surprise I have a HUGE passion for connecting with people and helping bring light to their life. I am also a lover of investing into opportunities that make passive income and enjoy connecting people with the mentors that have changed my mindset & financial situation substantially s/o: @thetuckerbern @jeffsekinger @kaelyncambio @longmoneyluc @theangeljay @mrairbnb @optimusprice2 @jessthelovecoach When I’m not slaying hair or diversifying my portfolio, I love the gym, social events, and working on my side hustles 💸 Want to connect? Let‘s get together and hype each other up about life adventures and see what we can do for each other 🤩🫱🏻‍🫲🏾💗

  3. YOU have the ability to change your habits, the people you hang around, your goals, your environment, your thoughts— at any given moment. And that, is what makes life so BEAUTIFUL. Don’t you think?

My Fall transitional capsule wardrobe I’ve been living in for the past month, and I’m shocked that sandals are still in rotation 👏🏼A lot of this is on sale right now for prime day too! Comment which outfit is your favorite vibe 1,2,3,4,5,6 and I’ll send you the links! Amazon Fashion, Amazon Fall Fashion, Amazon Style #amazonfit #amazonoutfit #amazonfinds #amazonfashion #primeday

  1. Today the IUCN listed the Monarch Butterfly as an endangered species. Much of the photography that I do is dedicated for conservation with a photographic series dedicated to the Monarch Butterfly migration. This was a Kaleidoscope photographed at Neal Smith Wildlife Refuge, as many Monarchs gathered before sunset. Take action and do what you can, to help conserve this beautiful species.

  2. The power of last week’s storms were visibly on display. This was the front of storms outside of Pella Iowa, that had all of the right ingredients to produce a tornado. With the same ingredients in the forecast tomorrow, for the same areas, keep an eye out for the weather tomorrow.

  3. Snowy evening along a creek. Maybe the last snow until Winter? Photograph taken during this weekend’s snow along Walnut Creek as the only sound to be heard was the falling snow and gentle flow of the creek below.

  1. Honored to announce that I've received the 2022 United States Artist Award in Visual Art! @unitedstatesartists "Join us in celebrating the 2022 USA Fellowship awardees — the creative disruptors, social sculptors, and material vanguards who ignite our imagination beyond limits. USA Fellowships are $50,000 unrestricted awards, with a year of financial planning, that recognize artists for their contributions to the field and allow them to decide how to best support their lives. These generative practitioners create objects, movements, narratives, spaces, and contexts that move our culture forward. Some are social sculptors and working within and for a community is essential to their process. They are driven by the belief that shaping a better world is first and foremost a group effort. Others are material vanguards, developing bodies of work that honor their personal histories through material and technical exploration. They transform the unconventional, overlooked, and mundane to build new worlds. And many are creative disruptors, those who work across mediums and genres to challenge established systems and norms, staying committed to their practices by resisting self-doubt and embracing play. All of these artists practice across these ways of working – unbound in their thinking and unbound by the status quo."
