The most common roadblock to healthy living is…
COMMITMENT. I think often times others have the resources to make a change, whether it’s committing to a gym membership or personal training, or even just eating better, but they’re scared of following through with it because of fear of failure. I try to tell my clients that it’s okay to have an off day and not be perfect. Just get back on track the next day and keep going!

The secret to the perfect food shot is…
GOOD LIGHTING! Seriously, good natural lighting makes such a difference. My best time for photos is late morning in my bedroom upstairs. Sometimes I don’t always have the option of taking food photos upstairs (my boyfriend works a lot of evening and night shifts, and sleeps during the day) so I have to take photos in the living room sometimes. The lighting isn’t as good and even though I am able to play with the settings in Lightroom (where I edit all my photos), sometimes it doesn’t come out the same!

My go-to dishes for fighting sugar cravings are…
Lots of berries and fresh fruit (nature’s candy!) for breakfast. (I prefer sweet over savory for breakfast.) I also try to satisfy my nighttime cravings with a scoop of Halo Top ice cream every night!

One small thing I’d recommend to get a little health boost instantly is…
Apple cider vinegar! I love starting the day with apple cider vinegar.
