• So I mentioned stockpiling mom life-hacks the other day... This one has saved me time & time again! @cosmickidsyoga is such a win! 🧘🏼‍♀️🧘🏻‍♀️ The girls love doing these kids' yoga videos on YouTube, they get some healthy movement time, and it usually gives me at least 30 minutes to get something done without them fighting with each other! ✨ Have your littles tried yoga at home? #bmariephoto #cosmickidsyoga #homeschooling #holmesfamilycircus

  • Really wishing we lived closer to the beach right now!!! 🏖 I could totally use some solo time sitting in the sand, breathing the salty air & listening to the sound of waves to help calm my spirit & fill my soul! ✨ Guess I'll just live vicariously through posts from the lucky ones! (Keep helping a girl out, @meaganhwade! 😘) #bmariephoto #beachgirlatheart #happyplace

  • If you're a mompreneur, you know how challenging this time can be! My encouragement to you is to serve your family the best you can right now (as many of us become homeschool teachers all of a sudden), and then just try to do 2-3 small things each week to move your business forward (if not more). Take a few minutes to scan your website & jot down areas to update. Email past dream clients for reviews/testimonials. Evaluate your workflows & see if there's room for improvement. Starting reading a business book. Little steps are still steps forward! Is there any way I can help you navigate this crazy season? Let me know in comments or via DM!! #bmariephoto #bmariephotobrand

  • It's wild what my girls have lived through already in their young lives, but I like to think that all of this (our community/their school flooding multiple times, COVID-19, etc.) will help them learn to be resilient, strong, confident & empathetic. ✨ Reading this to them today, hugging them tight & praying over their future! (Also trying to survive this last day of homeschooling for the week 😂) #holmesfamilycircus #raisinglittlewomen #girlmom #bmariephoto

  • I think that one of the little pieces of beauty in all of this chaos is our realization that connecting via technology is NOT the same as connecting in real life. And I hope that when it's safe for us all to hang out in person again, we choose to spend more time in community in REAL LIFE & that that we keep the phones put away while we do it. 🙅🏻‍♀️📱 I love how social media & texting & FaceTime can keep us connected, but it's being made painfully clear right now that it's just not the same as actual quality time together! ✨ (I know I am really missing the face to face time with my incredible brand photography clients - like the beautiful @southernrosedesignstudio right now!!!) #bmariephoto #bmariephotobrand #socialdistancing

  • Well, my friends.... trying to homeschool, fulfill my part time job hours from home, and still run my business (while doing all the other basic life tasks) has me a bit frazzled! 😜 But you know what? I know there are so many other families in this boat with me right now, and they are doing their best too. We're all doing our best. ✨ I'm praying frequently, trying to steal minutes here & there for self-care, checking in with friends & doing my best to hold myself to a standard of grace, not perfection (as the wise @emilyley so beautifully phrases it!). I'm also stockpiling mom life-hack ideas like they're toilet paper! 🧻🧻🧻 If you've got any good ones, let's share in the comments below & help each other out! 💕 #bmariephoto #holmesfamilycircus #suddenlyhomeschooling

  • As the month kicks off, it's always so gratifying to take a little time to lay out an intentional plan for the coming days, weeks and the month as a whole. I love how my Powersheets keep me focused on what matters (in both life AND business)! What are your favorite organizational tools? #bmariephoto #bmariephotobrand #powersheets #cultivatewhatmatters
