Meet the Genzink family! I met Lauren officially about a year ago. She grew up in Chicago too and went to the same high school as Doug (small world, always). It was great to chat with someone who loves everything from antiquing to fashion as much as I do.

Dime and Regal has been one of my favorite stops in town for a long time. Not long after we moved back to Michigan, I did a profile on their business because I was so fascinated with this woman owned collection of artists.

Aside from these talented folks, a lot of my photos are taken by the one and only Doug. I often say that he is the best cheerleader…and he is. He’s the most unabashed encourager of even my craziest dreams. Him taking on the role of cooperative photographer is proof of that.

I met Amber a few years ago and couldn’t believe someone could be that sweet in real life. She’s one of the most kind, charming people I have ever gotten to chat with. She’s extremely talented, creative, and oozes warmth.
