Work with me

Rose & Thorns is an honest and personal platform for sharing my parenting moments, travel ideas, food and wine, and motherhood truths. It’s a space built around uplifting others, documenting the beautiful times and the bloody hard times. 

I share openly about our parenting journey of raising strong and fearless girls (5 and 7) and being pregnant with our rainbow baby boy – due in October.

I am a full-time photographer, giving fun insight into my work and life as an entrepreneur, as well as personal insight into living with depression.

We actively support local businesses such as clothing brands, learning products/toys, and skincare brands. As an ex-wine writer, I still enjoy experiencing the wine industry as well as all things food. We aim to live a body and earth-kind life, focusing on not promoting products using mineral oil and unsustainable practices.

What makes us different?

It’s imperative for me to live out my social persona as an extenstion of who I am in real life. I believe that my following engage better because I “tell it like it is”, using creative copy, great photos and a myriad of InstaStories.

My Social presence

I work hard to give my audience relevant content, showcasing what helps me in life (and what doesn’t) and I have an active and engaged social media following.

Facebook – 2.5k
