I just wanted to write a thank you blog to some amazing people in my life, for helping me to get to where I am today with my photography! Sorry for no images - but this is strictly a "I love you all" type post.
First up, I need to really thank one of my best friends @exkyu and @countessa for ALL the help they've given me. As a model, as a photographer and as a friend. My skills wouldn't be anywhere near where they are without either of you, and without your support over the years - especially during the rough times - I wouldn't be the person I am today!

@Coolicio - whenever I had issues with getting a shot right or needing to cull a set you were always happy to take a look and give feedback. Whenever I needed an idea on colour or simply if a set flowed well, you always gave suggestions on what could be done to increase the visuals!

@rambo - It's only happened a few times, but when I've been feeling down-in-the-dumps about my photography and editing skills - even when you were insanely busy - you'd take the time to assess sets I had previous submitted to give me feedback on what to improve and point out exactly where I went right at times. I followed every piece of advice you gave me, and it totally paid off with @aubrey's "HARVEST MOON" being selected at Set of the Day! I might not have achieved that without all your advice and time!

Last, but definitely not least - @thelabrat! I spent almost a year doing some retouching and editing for you and I have definitely become a better photographer and designer because of this. Whenever I needed help or was just curious about an editing technique you would offer to jump on Skype and give me a tutorial. I will be forever grateful for what you taught me, and our time working together really meant a lot to me.

Of course there are SO MANY more people I have appreciation for when it comes to my SG, design and photography journeys - most of which I've known since joining the site in 2013!
I love you all so much and I hope you all stay safe tonight, and charge into the New Year feeling incredibly amazing about yourselves. You all deserve it <3
