Be Her Tribe | Charleston, SC Session

If you follow any of my social media channels you’ve likely seen photos floating around with the words Be Her Tribe on them.  It’s a campaign that was started between myself and Avis of Bliss & Roses Events.  My success doesn’t come from just myself.  Sure I put in a lot of hard work and dedication, but there was (and still is) an entire team of cheerleaders that without them I know I wouldn’t be living out this dream.  Those people include my family and close friends that stood by me and listened to me as I went on and on about this new passion of mine that I’d found in photography.  It included line sisters that hired me to shoot sessions when only a few people knew that I was even trying to break into photography.  And most recently they include a tribe of fellow photographers that inspire me to better, help me work through ideas that I have (no matter how crazy they may sound to someone NOT in the industry) and cheer me on when I celebrate small successes.

A couple of weeks ago I celebrated DBP’s 6 year anniversary and I wanted to commemorate the occasion.  Avis, who is not only my cousin or eGroup leader, but has become a very close friend to me over the last couple of years.  She is most certainly a part of my ever growing tribe.  So it was only natural that I went to her with this idea I had.  I wanted to do a giveaway to celebrate my anniversary, but not just any giveaway.  I wanted it to mean something.  I wanted it to go beyond what DBP is and to shoutout all those women that support one another.  I wanted to create a movement.  And together we came up with Be Her Tribe.  It encourages women to uplift, encourage and support one another.  In a world where we’re sometimes seen as competitors this movement counteracts that notion.  The giveaway is now over, but the movement is just beginning.  Bliss & Roses now has Be Her Tribe items for sale (tees, mugs, etc) and you can be a part of this by contacting her and ordering an item of your very own.  Let’s show the world what it truly means to be a tribe!
