Natural Hair, Motherhood, and Everyday Life in St. Augustine, Fl.
Navigating the Beautiful Chaos of Motherhood, Lifestyle & Glam
Welcome to my blog! My name is Mary & this is my corner of the internet. I became a stay-at-home mom about 10 years ago, and I officially received my Master’s Degree in Digital Marketing this year! Woot woot!
Mentally, I’m always in Mom mode, so I created Brown Queendom in desperate need of community when I was deep into PPD/A, for the second time. My dream was to be the authentic woman I was looking for online. Going to school, graduating while pregnant (BA), going back to school, all while already being a Mom of 2, who knew life would be a little chaotic? lol
My house is lived in; it’s never fully clutter-free, even when I clean/organize multiple times a day. I am stepping over toys when my kids are in school, and nowadays, I’m home with my youngest, Brooklyn, looking for work.
The struggle to be an intentional Mom and have a life outside of Motherhood is real. But I am feeling the bug to create again, stick around, let’s enjoy the journey.

I live in St. Augustine, FL, and the one thing that has been consistent since I was a little girl is the beach. Now, as a Mom, I love getting outside with my girls and enjoying a good beach day.
I began my photography journey snapping photos of my girls in nature, and from there, everything else fell into place. Check out some of my posts along my journey.
