A Day for Feds | Free headshots, makeup and more

February 19, 2025 Ginny Thomas

I’ve been overwhelmed by the positive response to the free headshots I offered last week, and it got me thinking—how can we do more? So, on March 14th, we’re turning our scheduled Headshot Marathon into a free event for impacted federal employees. Alongside Valerie Hammer and Locally Crafted, we’re offering headshots, makeup touch-ups, career services, legal and real estate guidance, crafting, and a supportive community—because sometimes, we just need to know we’re not alone. No cost, no appointment—just a space to feel seen, supported, and encouraged. If you or someone you know has been affected, join us. Let’s lift each other up. 💙

What I hear most often afterward is relief.

On Sunday I woke up to laughter and the sound of gingerbread house decorating happening in the kitchen. I wasn’t even part of the plan. I just got to walk in and soak it up.

My last sessions of the year are officially delivered, and I’m stepping into full holiday mode over here. Cozy lights, too many blankets, and a tree that makes the whole house glow.
