Hi I’m Ellerie

Hey everyone! So glad you stopped by to get to know me a little better. You might have seen my initial 'Hi I'm Ellerie' post, but there's always more to share, right? I’m Ellerie Marie, and yep, I just hit the awesome age of 21. Honestly, it feels like the best age to be – old enough to know a bit, young enough to still be figuring everything out, and truly embracing every moment. Kansas City is where I call home, and I absolutely adore exploring all the quirky spots it has to offer. You might even catch me out and about with my trusty Nikon camera, because yes, I'm a self-taught photographer! There’s something truly magical about capturing a perfect sunset over water, watching the hues change and fade, or finding beauty in totally unexpected places, like that vibrant, sticker-covered pink fire hydrant. I’m always looking for new perspectives, constantly trying to grow my skills behind the lens, and forever chasing that perfect shot. It’s a passion that really lets me see the world in a unique way. Life’s pretty full, and I’m super fortunate because I genuinely love my job. It’s one of those rare things where you wake up feeling like you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be, contributing to something meaningful. And when I’m not working or behind the camera, you’ll probably find me at home with my two fur babies. Yes, I’m a proud 'Boy Mom x2' to my adorable cats! They bring so much joy (and occasional chaos) to my life, and are just 'Sooo' Cute,' as I always say. Their playful antics and cuddles are the best way to unwind after a busy day. Speaking of life and growth, I’ve also just recently kicked off my gym journey! It’s all part of my bigger plan for a 'Glow Up in 2025.' For me, this isn’t just about physical changes; it’s about building strength, boosting my energy, and feeling more confident and ready to tackle whatever comes next. It’s a commitment I’m really excited about, and I’m looking forward to celebrating every small victory along the way. You might have also noticed my unique style – with my signature red-streaked hair, glasses, and piercings, I definitely lean into that #alt and #emo vibe. It’s not just a fashion choice; it’s a reflection of who I am and how I express myself authentically, from my flower tattoo to my choice of outfits. And what about 'Wuhluhwuh'? Haha, that’s just a fun little phrase that’s become a bit of a personal tagline for me. It’s all about embracing the moment, finding joy in the small things, and just letting loose a little. It’s a reminder to myself to enjoy the journey. I’m always open to making new friends and connecting with people who share similar interests or just want to chat about life. So seriously, feel free to reach out and let’s be friends! Whether it's about photography, fitness, our furry companions, or just sharing everyday experiences, I'm always up for a good conversation and looking to build genuine connections.
