ABOUT LUV IT OUTSIDE

Hello, I’m Tina and I want to help inspire you to get outside. After a series of challenging life events, I found myself needing an outlet. Somewhere to think, breathe, reflect and gain some perspective. Nature became that place for me. At first, it was simply getting outside.

​

Then it became hiking, practicing yoga outdoors, photographing tiny details in the woods, learning about mushrooms,trying new things and, eventually, pushing myself into adventures that once would have sounded completely out of character.

​

Luv It Outside is my way of sharing that journey. Because I truly believe you do not have to be fit, fearless, adventurous or even particularly outdoorsy to benefit from being outside.

​

You can take a walk around your neighborhood. Sit in your backyard. Wander through a local park. Garden. Stand barefoot on the grass. Look for mushrooms. Watch the rain. Rest under a tree and look up through the leaves. Notice the way sunlight shines on water.

​

Or, if you feel like it, climb a mountain and rappel 170 feet down it while trying very hard to remember how to breathe and forget your fear of heights. It all counts.

​

My personal growth journey lead me to nature. Now I hope to share my nature infused photography and stories to inspire others to seek out nature to nurture their mind, body and spirit. Whether that be through movement, mindfulness or simply learning to notice and appreciate the natural world, I invite you to get outside to discover just how amazing nature is.
