TOO SEXY.

Cake Designer & Master Cake Artist: @thesweetstopofrva

You appreciate things better from the ground up. I prefer the stairs over the elevator, the road trip over the flight. It's the ground work that keeps you moving. Your path is your path, not to be measured by the highlights of someone else's path.

We all win, when we work on ourselves. Personal development is not selfish. Professional development is not selfish. What's waiting for you is on the other side, which may demand a different you.

HEALTH IS WEALTH 🎯 Wishing my Pops a Happy 70th Birthday! 70 looks great on you Dad! You've set a great example for me. You talk the talk and walk the walk.

When life gets overwhelming, I can call on you. When I'm unsure, I can call on you. When parenting is getting the best of me, I can call on you. When marriage feels like a roller coaster, I can call on you.

I'm proud to call you my Father and I'm blessed to have you in my life. You showed me the ropes of life and continue to show the ropes of life. I'm a better husband, father, and man because of your active fatherhood.

Happy 70th Pops! ❤️❤️

My first Career Day as a Professional Photographer, and it was a great day!

The kids were flexing and posing 😂. One thing is for sure, they were camera ready 😁.

Carter was so proud to say that both his Mom and Dad were presenters for Career Day at his school (Mehfoud Elementary). Having your kids be excited about your career warms our hearts. Our kids constantly share our businesses with everyone around them which creates opportunities such as this 😁. Annnnd it was nice to hear that everyone loves Carter "L" Washington (He's 1 of 2 Carter Washington's at his school). 😎

Cakes and Cameras were in the building (well in the bus loop) at Mehfoud Elementary School last Friday!

It's not the tools or the equipment that makes a professional a professional. It's the skill, the craftsmanship, the precision, the execution, the failed attempts, and the understanding that your personal best is the baseline.

I'm happy to have been on this journey of excellence and shoulder to shoulder with my wife. If you see and admire her work that means you see and admire my work. She fully committed to her profession which inspired me to fully commit to mine. It's been a gamble, but look where we are now 🙏🏾❤️🙌🏾.

The mission is continuous improvement. Lab work. Personal Development.

Wifey masterfully executed this masterpiece of a cake. Well done my love ❤️.

Shouting Happy 44th Birthday to my wife, mother of my 4 babies, business partner, master cake artist, author, and best friend. Looking forward to breaking new barriers within ourselves without any regrets. Your awesome! Your the greatest! Your smile can light up a room! I'm a lucky guy 😘😎❤️.

You make birthdays special for a lot of people..sometimes without any sleep. Today is your day and I hope you receive all the love you give week after week. It's not easy, but you make it look easy. I guess that's what professionals do!

Happy Birthday Gorgeous 😘🥰❤️😍

As you embrace your power, confidence, and strength..stand tall and reign with grace and resilience as the queen you are! You inspire me more than you know. You're accomplishing major milestones, first generation achievements, overcoming the odds, and doing it with a smile. You should be proud...I know I'm proud!

My wife did a thing y'all...a big thing. She wrote a book! As a lover of books, I can't wait to read it! Although I played a significant part in the look and feel of the book I did not read the manuscript.

Pre-orders are available, packaging is ready, book signings are in scope, and speaking engagements are manifesting!

EPHESIANS 5:25
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.

The moment I decided to do this our love turned into something magical. I tried it, it worked, and it's still working. I found myself again in doing so. Today is not about me or about us...I give GOD all of the praise for keeping me strong, for putting my family first starting with my wife, and for trusting the process.

The process meaning your struggles, obstacles, setbacks...you know the things you don't want the world to see. But GOD said..."you're going to go through this", "you're going to struggle", "people will see it", but the Good Part is "you're going to come out winning". We all like a good game and a good story, but what makes the game and the story good?? The fight, the focus, and the fearlessness.

Thank you God for putting the fight in us, giving us the level focus that we need, and the courage to go against the grain.
