I got on this strange "Hoarders" kick that lasted about a week. I was watching it on Netflix whenever I had a spare moment--while I folded laundry, during dinner prep, before bed. The show intrigues me, but also makes me very sad. I found myself getting really emotional, thinking about the pain these people have gone through that brought them to such sad places. I also became incredibly motivated to organize! It was quite coincidental that in the midst of this kick, I had a photo session scheduled with Maria, who is a personal organizer. Before we met, I didn't realize that she actually works with hoarders! In fact, as a personal organizer, she can help people with problems as small as a junk drawer, or as large as a house full of stuff! Maria needed some professional shots for her business. We met in Old Town Manassas and I had an absolute blast getting to know her. She brought her friend and Mary Kay consultant along, and they kept us laughing the entire time! Here are some of my favorites from our time together.
If you, or someone you know, needs a personal organizer, be sure to contact Maria! You can find her at Conquer the Clutter. Thanks for trusting me with your photos, Maria. It was so much fun meeting you! (And don't worry, folks, my Hoarders obsession is over!)
