We could not be more thrilled to be a part of the bay area’s first edition of  CRAVE Tampa Bay, the ultimate guide to finding unique women-owned businesses in the Tampa Bay area. It was such a beautiful experience, getting to know more about our community and meeting such talented women! I look forward to sharing each shoot and featuring the amazing women I photographed in the next few blog posts. For now, be sure to visit their web pages and get to know more about each one. Sheri’ Taber of Peak Performance Group, Sara Stonecipher of MISRED Outfitters, Michelle Jennings-Wiebe of Studio M, Jennifer Aguiar of Aguiar Plastic Surgery, Soozie Lazenby of Urban Coast and Heidi Bundy of Heidi Bundy Designs.

The CRAVE book launch party was so much fun and a perfect way for everyone involved to meet and get to know one another. Christy Schutz and Nancy Vaughn did a fantastic job and there were so many fabulous businesses that were part of the book that helped contribute to an evening full of delicious food, raffle prizes, and much more! We had a chance to meet with Melody Biringer, a true business start-up junkie (we are talking 20+ businesses!) the master-mind behind this awesome project that inspires the community to connect and build each other up. Melody’s cheerful personality is contagious, so much so, that within 5 seconds of meeting her, I was standing around with 4 other women I didn’t know (yet) and she was snapping a phone pic of our bright-manicured toes!

We look forward to seeing the CRAVE wave throughout the bay area and supporting the talented women in this community!
