PURPOSE AND AUTHENTICITY 

In my 20 years of professional experience, I’ve played many different roles as a business owner, not just a photographer. Whether I am project managing large projects for clients or mentoring employees/other photographers, I understand the importance of working on the ground level but also having clear sense of the big picture. 

When you work with me, I am focus on delivering your needs as a client and less about what I want out of the project. Still, I thoroughly enjoy a collaborative process when we share  a vision of creating stories that has meaning and purpose.

🌿 **Kim's Journey to Mindful Living & Self-Awareness** 🌿

Through her mindfulness practice, Kim has gained a deeper understanding of her actions and the motivations behind them. She reflects on questions like, "Am I buying this because it feeds my ego or out of insecurity?" Instead of chasing material possessions, Kim has found joy in the simple things, embracing contentment with less. ✨

This practice has shown her that we are all interconnected, part of a larger whole. It encourages her to live in a way that fosters harmony, reduces destructive behaviors, and supports sustainability for future generations. 🌍💚

🌟 A Lesson in Humanity: The Role of a Teacher 🌟

"As a Zen teacher, I wear the robes and play the role, but I always remind others: I’m human. I won’t meet every idealization you may have of me—and that’s okay.

At some point, I may disappoint you, and when that happens, it could be part of the teaching itself. It’s not about falling off the pedestal; it’s about learning that the true teacher isn’t the person in front of you—it’s life, the hard knocks, and your own journey.

Be prepared to embrace the imperfection and the humanity of the teacher. There’s wisdom in seeing beyond the roles we play."

🌿 From Mindfulness to Buddhism: A Journey of Exploration 🌿

More and more people are discovering mindfulness through secular avenues—whether it’s an MBSR course or workplace meditation. But what’s truly inspiring is seeing how this practice sparks curiosity about Buddhism itself.

Many are transitioning from mindfulness into deeper practices, exploring retreats, and engaging with Buddhist teachings. It’s beautiful to witness this evolution, but it’s also a reminder: there’s no one-size-fits-all approach.

In the Buddhist community, we’re becoming more aware of meeting people where they are—acknowledging diverse experiences, backgrounds, and traumas. Growth takes time, and there’s no rush. It’s about allowing space for exploration and finding a path that feels right for you.

🧘‍♀️ Let’s continue supporting one another on this journey, one mindful step at a time. 🌸

🌸✨ "James talks about the concept of impermanence in Buddhism." ✨🌸 

In life, everything is transient. Just like the seasons change and moments pass, our experiences are fleeting. Embracing impermanence allows us to appreciate the present and let go of attachments. What are your thoughts on this concept?

While I am debating if i should break up the book into two parts, I am already thinking about the next project. It's quite controversial in this day and age but i think that's why i have to do it. Certainly as my own relationship to it unfolds, the power of relying on it will manifest in mysterious ways.

i need to return to the roots of the seemingly simple concept of just black and white. but simple doesn't mean it's easy.

while i train to cut through
the fabrication of my ordinary perception
the expanse of the reality
beyond the senses
invoke gratitude
beyond this precious human life
