3 Things I'm Loving Right Now | Hampton Roads Photographer | Jess Nicole Photography

I thought it would be fun to connect with my community and share the things I'm really diggin' right now. So, let's jump right in! Here's 3 things I am loving right now!
  • Nature/Landscape Photography! I've always loved nature and being outside. During our time in Tennessee, I completely and totally found my calling as a barefoot mountain mama. But one thing I haven't always loved is landscape and nature photos. That's a whole other genre of photography and I'm no where near an expert in it, but I've started really digging nature and landscape photography...mostly plants. I mean, during a pandemic, who ISN'T loving plants!? Here are a few recent favorites, the first one was taken at First Landing State Park in Virginia Beach. I'm not quite sure what it is, but those dew drop and that light is just dreamy! The second is my Lamb's Ear that I have in my yard.

  • Teaching! I actually went to college for teaching Secondary Education. Fun fact, right? Lately I have found a lot of joy and purpose in teaching and mentoring others in photography. I'm all about building community over competition. I actually just launched The Brave Storyteller Mentoring (shameless plug!) and I will be accepting virtual and local mentorships- all skill levels welcome, even if you are just a "mom with a camera". If this is something you're interested in, please let me know here and I'll get all the info over to you. But in a nutshell, yes. I'm totally excited and pumped for this new venture!
  • Grilling! I don't really love cooking so much- mostly because of the cleanup. I guess I would cook all day with a smile if I didn't have to do the cleaning! But seriously, my husband surprised me with a gas grill the other day and I literally cannot stop. I'm exploring all the things to grill and learning how to do it just perfect. You know what my favorite thing to grill is? Jalapeno poppers! The jalapenos come straight from our garden too! I stuff them with cream cheese and cheddar, wrap them in bacon, and throw them on the grill for a spicy and savory treat. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. And the clean up in minimal- yay! It seems like there are a lot of folks out there during quarantine baking bread (sourdough?!), and I'm over here grilling all the things!

  • Also, I feel the need for an honorable mention here- I'm totally, completely loving the tie dye trend coming back. How can you be mad looking at tie dye! It's literally like you are wearing happiness! I also love all the 90's trends that are mainstreaming right now. I can still remember the absolute joy of getting a Delia*s catalog in the mail. 

Who else is with me? What are some things you are loving right now? Any trends or fads? I'm also really loving spaghetti squash right now too!
