19 agents showed up and showed OUT at The Luxe Listing Social—and this right here is just a glimpse of the energy in the room.

Every face in this post represents someone who’s serious about their brand, their business, and the way they show up in this market. Thankfully and thankfully there were some new and past faces I was able to work with.

I am so grateful you took the time to invest in yourself, connect with others, and trust Next Agent Up to capture it.

Tag yourself, share your shot, and let people see the standard you’re setting.

More to come… 🚀

These days something has me on edge for us all.

No doubt you have your opinion by now. Good. Let’s have them. I really want to hear where we are with this topic.
As a photographer, my business is built on trust, relationships, and showing up honestly and giving you my best. After all, this is my living dream to connect with people through photography and videography. BUT…. Lately, something feels… different.

We went from obvious filters—fun, harmless, fake—to images and videos you can barely tell from reality. Most of us played with it. Posted a few things. Had fun. No judgment.
Then came Christmas 2025. If I had to see one more candy cane photo I was about to lose is. Fun at first, right? Then people were taking compliments on images they knew weren’t real. Then came AI headshots. So realistic even a trained eye might not catch them. I mean I am doing double takes now.

It makes you stop and ask:
Do we care if the images we use of ourselves are fake?�Do we just accept AI as reality now?�Where is the line between enhancement and deception?�If we can fake a family vacation, a perfect outfit, a flawless headshot—what does that do to how we see ourselves? What does it do to the person we meet when they actually meet us in person?

We already know what comparison did to teens. Anxiety, body image struggles, depression. Meta even admitted it!
Yes, teens are more vulnerable. But what about adults? What happens when our comparisons aren’t to reality at all?

AI isn’t going away. That’s not the fight. The fight is how we choose to use it.

Are we documenting real life—or just designing a believable cheapened version of it?�Is fast and easy all that matters?�Who benefits most from the perfect image—the person, or the platform?
Who gets the memory of the perfect Ai photoshoot? You or the computer??

I don’t have answers. I just know these are questions worth asking. I have a strong suspicion this is tying into our mental health. Time will tell. Just take care of yourself and let’s talk about it.
