It all started with construction paper and excessive amounts of tape as a young kiddo. These days as an adult (sort of! Ha!) I express my creativity through photography. Every day I wake up grateful that my creative side meshes so well with my passion for people and turned into this dream into a career.
I had the wonderful opportunity to work with 4 All Humanity and the designer, Zoe, this past week! We shot current products and upcoming items and it was so much fun!
I pulled this from the 4 All Humanity website to tell you a little bit a bout this company:
“We want to empower women to be themselves, to show off their unique beauty and to use their financial influence to empower change in the world. We do this by blending classic silhouettes with vibrant fabrics and fair trade fabrics and fair trade principles for a lasting impact.”
“At 4 All Humanity, the artisans are at the heart of our company. Receiving a fair, livable wage empowers artisans to hone their craft, use their hands and change their lives. Thanks to Fair Trade principles, our artisans are able to earn more than what they would at another job in their community. This extra income enables them to put their children in school, buy food, and improve their neighborhoods.”
“4 All Humanity only partners with cooperatives and ministries who ensure that the artisans are growing, learning and benefiting from their craft. Read more about the stories behind your purchases by clicking the links below.”
This company is doing amazing things! We need more companies like this in the world. If you love cute clothes and want to support a great cause and other women check out 4 All Humanity.
Also, my senior girls look AMAZING! Such models. They really brought their A game at this session.

Zoe, the designer, brought it with her, so I’m not sure!

Oh I’m not sure, I’ll have to ask her!

Thanks Britney!
Love this Valerie! I just found out about fair trade when I was led to the True Cost documentary on YouTube via a podcast, and it’s totally changed my perspective on shopping and really being interested in the source of my outfits. I’ve since just purchased items either made in the USA or from thrift stores (not that I shop a lot anyway lol). Anyway, I love this session and I with the best for the brand and your business as well! 🙂
Thanks Mary. Yes digging into the world of fair trade is truly eye opening. I’m so glad you are making a difference in the world!
I’m in love! I have been searching for a photographer in Kansas, do you also photograph weddings?
Yes I do! Weddings and Seniors are my specialty!
