I am so excited to share these commercial photos to be used for advertising, social media, and more business needs, from the National Vice President (NVP) training that happens annually on Maui. I felt so blessed to be able to surround myself with these incredibly powerful ladies. It was truly such a privilege just to see how caring, kind, driven, and intelligent these women are, and how much fun they have together! And they were so kind and encouraging to me, just welcoming me in and I was so thankful for the time I was able to spend with them too. They were enjoying their trip for 2 to Maui for training (paid for by Arbonne), and had hit the pool at the Wailea Beach Resort (Marriott) in the afternoon, and then in world record time got ready for their quick, team photo session. We even snuck in a few headshots…

So If you don’t know, I lalso have a job as an Arbonne Independent Consultant, which I truly love. The culture of Arbonne is unlike anything I’ve ever seen in the corporate world, or just world for that matter. There is such a rich community of women (and men) cheering you on, equipping you to serve and be a force for good, celebrating you all along the way.  Think: a glowing group of world changers impacting the world with tangible love and meeting needs that never could have been met without the vehicle of Arbonne. From homes in Haiti, to orphanages on different continents, to fostering and adoptions, to after school programs for at risk youth, to rehabilitating girls rescued from trafficking— and the list goes on! There are babies that have been born, college tuition paid for, opportunities given beyond the wild-dreams, all through God using the brilliant business model and opportunity in Arbonne. I scoffed for almost 8 years, so I get it when people look at me with this deep concerned look, questioning how I could give up on photography to do “one of those things.” And I can smile back, and appreciate that they just don’t know about how incredible this opportunity is— I was there too.  OK, so for the record, I’m always going to be a photographer. I love it, and as long as I can hold a camera to capture light, I will.  It is a part of who I am, a gift I aim to steward, and I literally see the world around me through a camera lens the majority of the time.  But, there are physical limitations that I have, and there are huge blessings of a side hustle.  Plus let’s be real, even if you don’t live in the most expensive state in the country (Hawaii), well, side hustles become life-altering blessings. Not only has God allowed the scientists and super educated people at Arbonne to create products that have helped save my health (and my kids would say “saved my life”), but these products, products that I was already using everyday, are good for my health, inside and out, and good for the earth and environment, and actually work! Talk about a win-win-win! Arbonne has also allowed me to grow in every area of my life, from faith to motherhood to friendships and yes, as a photographer— both as an artist and a business woman.
We are all on a journey, learning, growing, hopefully striving to become the person we were created to be. There is just one of you, and all of your story is important. I am so thankful that Arbonne is a part of my story. I never ever thought it would be, but then again, I never realized all it could be.
So without further ado, here is a glimpse of the beautiful inside and out, Arbonne National Vice Presidents, who just have way too much fun running a 6-figure+ business: Danielle Lawver with Carrie Kane, Mickey Lawver, Nikki Smith, Laura Lance, and Shannon Wenzel.
