Summer Reflections and Fall Notes
It's officially fall! With the cold weather upon Chicago, I saw some bloggers discussing their summers, what they accomplished and what their goals are for the next season. With the leaves changing, this set showcases the bright fall colors while reminiscing the lush/green summer days.

Summer Reflections: This summer was crazy busy for me. The biggest thing that happened this summer was my trip to Vietnam for two weeks. There was a lot of work this summer, so while it may look like I wasn't active on social media, I was working more than ever behind the scenes.

In the realm of modeling, I booked more paid gigs then ever before. My two biggest areas of growth was visiting photographers (photographers from international locations visiting Chicago and paying for portraits/fashion/editorial work) and e-commerce. By focusing on e-commerce this summer, I felt I was able to grow stronger relationships with my clients and business connections while growing as a model. My specific new clients were a jewelry company, high-end small boutique and bridal company.

On a personal note, this summer I had surgery on my nose and mouth, which put me out of modeling for a month. This was a summer of a lot of emotional changes.

Fall Notes: Notes, in this context, are things I want to accomplish over the course of the season. Summer was a lot of behind the scenes, but here are some things I'd like to do in fall.
  • I would love to expand my fashion posts, including more behind the scenes of what I do. This is a bit broad, but includes everything from more Instagram stories, to going live, showing more of what I do day-to-day and more of my own personal fashion/style.
  • I am always trying to work with new photographers, but this season I'm making it a goal to shoot with 5 new photographers with all different styles.
  • Take more time to build the connections on a deeper level. I'd love to go out more with people from the industry and feel before it gets too cold would be the perfect time! Going out with long time connections and people who I've just met is a great way to build out those connections.
  • Revamp my website is on my very long to-do list since there was a website crash a week ago where my website was down for two weeks. I'm currently in the process of switching platforms and editing my book to bring everyone a cleaner and more interesting for everyone to view.
  • Create 10 new photoshoot ideas for winter and execute them!
