Five Tips for Better Blog Photos

5 Tips for Better Blog Photos

When I first started blogging I stole images off Pinterest for my posts (GASP!) Don't worry, I quickly realized that A) That was illegal and B) I loved most the blogs that shared their own photos. As someone who never took a photography class in her life, (wait...maybe I did in middle school?) I was intimidated by the idea of creating my own images but I knew I didn't want to break the law . So I rocked the "Instagram" inspired photos where I would just post all the things on Instagram. This was ... continue reading...

Breakfast in Bed this Valentine’s Day

Valentine's Day is coming up in a couple weeks and I can hardly believe it!

Not all advice is the best advice

I've been a blogger for almost six years now. I've been blogging through different seasons with different purposes and different directions. I have taken blogging breaks 6 months long (or longer) and I've blogged multiple times a day. I've blogged for my mom (so she knew I was alive studying abroad), myself (aka creating a diary), my readers (by sharing tips & things I think will benefit you), and I've blogged for the blog community (blogging about what I think people want to hear and will ... continue reading...
