Behind the Lens: A Glimpse into Our Founder's Candid Moments

As the founder of Lumily, I often find myself in front of the camera, a place that admittedly makes me a bit uncomfortable. Just seconds after this photo was taken, I erupted into a fit of giggles, effectively ending our planned photo session. However, what makes this picture special is that it captures a genuine moment, one that wasn't orchestrated for the camera.

In the photo, I’m wearing my go-to accessories: my trusty Frida bag strap and a pair of vibrant Sugar Skull earrings, both made in Guatemala by our incredibly talented artisan partners. These aren’t just props for a photo; they're staples in my wardrobe that I’ve happily used for over a year now, and they're still in perfect condition.

This spontaneous snapshot was taken during a quick coffee stop with my cousin, who managed to capture the moment right as I couldn’t hold back my laughter any longer. Despite my ongoing battle with camera shyness, I’m learning to embrace these moments. So, while I work on facing my fears, you might see a few funny faces from me in our photos.

I share this story not just to give you a laugh, but to show the real-life love I have for our products. They're not just beautifully crafted items; they're durable, everyday companions that bring a little extra joy to my routine. And that’s what Lumily is all about—bringing joy and authenticity into everything we do, from our products to our people.
