Have you ever met someone who's energy is so positive and who is so genuine, you leave the interaction feeling just incredibly happy? That's the best way I can describe Katina Mountanos from the blog On Adulting. I got to spend an afternoon with this amazing, positive woman photographing some looks from the new fall collection. Katina wears the Margaux Dress in Aubergine Her smile and zest for life are infectious. Katina's blog is a "space meant for millennial women to thrive." Katina created the blog to share her journey navigating adulthood mindfully. She left a career in corporate finance because she didn't want to settle for "good enough" and wanted to pursue a path that was more true to herself. She...

The leaves have turned and there's a crispness in the air. It feels like fall, and what better way to celebrate the changing weather than with a fall photo shoot.
