Lay a whisper on my pillow…

01/09/2022

I’m not great at introductions. I like being in the background.

My name is Taylor Quinn Willmott. I’m 70 days away from 36. Born 11-10-1986 in Bakersfield California. I was raised country. That means I sound like I’m slightly from the south and I’m basically a MacGyver. I graduated college from CSULB (go beach) in 2009 with a degree in Recreation & Leisure Studies, certificate in Travel & Tourism, and a minor in Geography. I’ve studied abroad twice and been to 8 countries 3 continents. I’m an introvert. Enneagram 2-4-6 equally. Scorpio sun Pisces moon and Sagittarius rising. I’m the third child and only girl.

I would describe myself as wild, in all aspects of the word. I’m rough and delicate at the same time.

I didn’t choose flowers. They chose me. My mother was a florist for 45+ yrs. I’ve known flowers since inception. I fought this path every step of the way, but you can’t miss what’s meant for you, no matter how hard you try.

I specialize in drieds, boho, and desert looks, but can really do mostly anything.

And I’ll end as awkwardly as I started ✌🏼

Flowers always bring me back to reality.

The fragility. The beauty. The struggle.

They remind me that everything is temporary.

The good. The bad. And the ugly.

All the textures

Nothing says Downtown Bakersfield like brick and green doors!

Throw in a neon monicker… and you’re home.

There’s just somethin about a classic car… an all white alley… and a beautiful couple…

This was one of my favorites. For so many reasons…

Looking at Cami… makes me hopeful for our true independence one day.

One day our children will be free.

Hug them a little tighter today, we don’t know how much longer we have with them.

❤️🤍💙

You know why I love photos so much?

Because it allows time to stand still.

And Nobody captures it like Allison.

Custom earring by me.

Marisa & Michelle…

I always wanted to be a twin… have a best friend for life, the yin to my yang, the Garth to my Wayne 🖤

Thankful to have made bouquets for both sisters! I love when clients ‘keep it in the family’

Do it anyway.

Every fear I’ve ever had has come true.

Do it anyway.

I’ve only regretted the things I didn’t do.

The greatest gift you can give someone…

… is the space to be themselves.

12/06/2022

Life is full of ups and downs.

I hope you’re on the up 🤞🏼

14/03/2022

It’s maddening how much I have to share and give, but feel stuck because I don’t know how to communicate it to the public.

So here’s Marisa. A gorgeous soul inside and out 😘

I have no idea what the f**k I’m doing.

But here I am. Doing it.

I don't care if Monday's blue…

Tuesday's grey and Wednesday too…

Thursday, I don't care about you…

It's FRIDAY, I'm in love…

Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday, Wednesday break my heart
Oh, Thursday doesn't even start…

It's Friday, I'm in love!

One thing about me…

I don’t do small.

Life is so challenging.

Just when I think I’ve mastered something, life has a funny way of humbling me about it.

Even though some of these challenges have sent me into mental breakdowns, the reward is always greater.

The universe knows when my time is right and I trust it.

I love everything about this surprise proposal photo shoot.

I love even more when people book me for them.

Do disco balls excite you?

No? Just me?

20/01/2022

I’ll be your disco baebee…

The 70s are back! In a big way!

Combining styles, mixing textures, different color palettes are my jam!

Consider having a floral touch to your professional photos

I can’t finish out my day without saying Happy Anniversary!

I will never tire of posting and sharing them.

I will always celebrate this magical amazing moment.

After all… it’s defined my design.

Allison and Justin. I still can’t believe you chose me. 🙏🏻

I can’t stress enough to surround yourself with like minded people.

Never be the smartest person in the room.

And to shoot your shot.

I promise you won’t regret it.

You only regret the shot you don’t take.

Lately I’ve felt extreme overwhelm.

I have a lot of moving parts in my life at the moment and today I yearn for simplicity.

I’m so grateful for all of it, but I feel this is a grounding year.

A year to set new roots.

A year to discover.

A year to collaborate.

A year to be Taylor, just Taylor.

Not TaylorQuinn or TQWdesigns.

So this year my word is GROUNDED.

I will be intentional in my moments and present in my tasks.

I will live in the now, not in the future.

I will seek what earth has to offer me, by traveling and immersing my self in the culture.

Hello 2022, I’m ready for you.

2021.

I can’t feel but utterly grateful for this year.

This year challenged me like no other.

I had been straddling a line for quite sometime.

A car accident, a stay at the county mental health facility, and accepting a freelance position catapulted me into the next level.

This was the hardest, most stressful, best year I’ve had.

My business tripled.

I shed a lot of relationships that were holding me back.

A terrible fear became real and the thought of going back makes my skin crawl.

I challenged and uplifted my design.

I put myself in positions to excel (or fall on my face).

I completed more events this year then all my years combined.

And I f**king survived.

As a gift to myself, I finally took the plunge, and rented a commercial studio space.

I don’t have to live with the flowers anymore!

I’ll be leaving Bakersfield in these next few months.

But Bakersfield is in my blood. It is a very important foundation. And weirdly it feels like a family member.

It holds some of my most favorite people, unforgettable firsts, and some great memories.

This is not goodbye. It’s a ‘I’ll see ya later’.

I was robbed on Friday.

Unfortunately it wasn’t the first time.

It’s probably not the last time.

It’s just the worst time.

It’s hard to stay positive when you’ve been violated, during the holidays, and you’re alone.

Most of the time I love being alone.

It’s especially hard right now.

But the show must gone on.

2 years ago a manifestation came true.

Believe in yourself.

Believe your dreams are worth it.

Believe you are capable of all that you want.

Don’t question how.

Put your head down and do the work.

Do 👏🏼 The 👏🏼 Work 👏🏼

Keep that dream in your vision.

And the universe will provide.

You are the writer of your story.

There will be influences, but you are ultimately the author.

You only get a black ink pen and paper.

Every mistake will eventually flow seamlessly into the story.

Over time, they won’t be mistakes, they’ll only be apart of the story.

My story is so colorful, even though it’s written in black ink.

And that’s the magic of life, being able to create with nothing.
