Have you met a photographer who also fancies herself as a jewelry designer? Such a unique combination and an intriguing story for this conversation. This week on The Safe Room, we're joined by Abigail Wedderburn, a photographer and jewelry designer from Kitchener-Waterloo who fell in love with photography, and became a safe space for her to create and be herself.
For her first podcast interview, you can hear the emotions coming out. From her soft yet smooth voice to the outbursts of laughter and the rawness in her thoughts. We talked about how she got started in photography and jewelry design, how she developed her working relationships with clients, and how her passion led her to highlight the beauty, strength, and resilience of the BIPOC community around her.
