She isn't afraid to dive into the challenges we face each day as entrepreneurs with balancing work and family life, having tough conversations with spouses, and the stress that running  business can have in your life. Tara shares how she has adapted time and time again, rebuilding her business, navigating a new community, and enjoying the moments along the way. She bravely dives into a conversation that we all need to hear!

Tara Ruby is deeply imbedded into the military life, being a military veteran, a military spouse and very soon a military mom. She loves to capture portraits with a focus on motherhood, as well as our US Military. Tara is honored to have been both published and award winning at both a National and an International level with her work. Among hundreds of international publications, her photography has been shared on Facebook over 3.5 million times and featured in Vanity Fair, USA Today, Cosmopolitan, SELF Magazine, The Huffington Post, Time Magazine, and The Army Times and many more. Cosmopolitan magazine has called her work “stunning”, “powerful” and notes that her work caused “the internet to lose its collective mind”.
