Hailey at Home

Hailey is a friend, creative, and queer. We first connected in Denver pre-pandemic she had recently relocated from Chicago. She makes beautiful handmade earrings from clay, under the name The Gentle Kind. She is now an active part of the queer creative scene in Denver and I was delighted to re-connect when she needed some photos for an upcoming article about her business. I spent one rainy afternoon at her apartment with her two cats Rigatoni and Mac. Toni for short was hiding most of the time but her newest addition Mac was such a curious little tabby. We had a great time snapping pics and chatting about Drag Race All-Stars season and how Hailey knows Shea Coulee! Very casual, I know. Theses images are from our time together and hopefully they inspire you to purchase a pair of these amazing one of a kind earrings -The Gentle Kind. Also I hope it inspires you to know that community, particularly queer community is very much alive and well.
