    76. On authenticity with brand strategist + photographer LeeAnn Stromyer

    "To be authentic--is in my opinion--the intentional act of discovering who you are through experimenting and redefining for yourself. It's not stagnant or fixed.

LeeAnn and I chat A LOT about brand authenticity, why it's important, and why it feels so hard to grasp at times.
