Working full time as a NJ portrait and branding photographer allows me to meet and photograph some of the most fabulous women! About a year ago, I connected with a fabulous interior designer in Philly through social media.
Her name is Sabine Hayes and she's the beauty, talent, and owner behind the Philadelphia based, luxury design company, Georgette Marise Interiors. As part of my When Sleeping Women Wake, Mountains Move project, Sabine participated in the following Q & A:
1. Describe the obstacles that used to hold you back (real or imagined).
Fear. I am my worst critic. The stories I tell myself tend to hold me back from achieving my full potential.
2. What particular situation changed your thinking? In other words, what was your "aha moment"?
Realizing that fear is a lack of faith. With a little faith, I don't have to know it all. I have the privilege of
working with an array of talented artisans, painters, contractors, carpenters, graphic designers, and
photographers as a team to achieve the goal of a complete design.
3. Describe your work and how you're working toward (and living) your dream.
As an interior designer, my goal is to tell people's stories through the design of their spaces. My dream is to
continue to create homes that reflect the personality of my clients. I hope to inspire others and let them
know that no matter what the size of their home, they have the ability to live in their best space.
4. What's the best piece of advice that you would offer to your younger self?
I love this question because hindsight is 20/20. I would tell my younger self to not take time for granted.
Time never stops and what we do with it can make a world of difference. I would also tell my younger self
to take more risks even if it leads to failure. Failure is part of life and the lessons we learn from it are life-
changing.
5. How can others contact you and /or learn more about you?
You can find me on Instagram & Facebook @georgettemarise or on my design blog http://www.georgettemarise.com/blog for helpful solutions to everyday design dilemmas.
Here are a few more images from our recent photo session:
The blog design post was interesting because visuals strongly affect how people engage with content. I remember working on a design task while also needing help with assignment to manage deadlines during a busy semester. It shows how creativity and structure work best together. It showed me how self care matters. It helped me understand large projects better. Nice post . Your post make me smile.
The blog design tips were useful because visual presentation often decides whether readers stay interested or not. I remember creating a portfolio page while using Math Assignment Helpers UK to manage academic pressure during that time. It shows how clean and creative design can improve the reader experience greatly. It showed me how self care matters. It helped me understand large projects better. Nice post . Your post make me smile.
I like this post because it shows how teachers enjoyed the activities and how positive feedback can motivate both kids and staff. It feels encouraging to see learning in a fun environment. During my studies I once used write my SPSS assignment when I was overwhelmed with data tasks, which helped me manage time better. It reminds me how support can improve learning experiences.
