about me.

01.

I’m LaTanya👋🏾

I was born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland. I have traveled to many countries and nothing is quite like home.

Life's pleasures.♡

My parents say that I have always been a creative and on the go! While I have been more intentional about rest and stillness, I truly enjoy travel with my beautiful wife, quality time with loved ones, and shopping. My fav is shopping with my mommy. Oh, it's a full day event.

Love at first SNAP.📸

I have loved photography since childhood. If I wasn't posing (I'm talking exaggerated hip thrust to the side, arm perfectly placed with a huge smile), I was taking the picture. A camera was never far from my reach. My parents can attest as they were the subjects of the thousands of pictures developed via CVS/RiteAid/Walgreens 1-hour photo. Shoutout to the disposable camera! 😆

MULTI-HYPHENATE HERE.🙋🏾‍♀️

I have pursued multiple passions within the beauty industry, retail, education, photography, content creation, graphic and interior styling all before 40!        

I am currently on a career break/sabbatical after 20 years in the early education field. Over the years, I have found ways to infuse my creative passions into my work. A common thread is that I have always been tasked with, "Making things pretty". And that makes my heart smile. This time off has been life changing....life saving. I am grateful for time, rest, and a chance to get back to self. For now, Photography + Content Creation is what lights me up and here, is where I'll be.
