YOU MATTER
Fentanyl Poisoning & Overdose Awareness


Every August we place Purple (overdose awareness) and Royal Blue (fentanyl awareness)  flags as a visual display representing those who have passed away from fentanyl poisoning and overdose in the Roaring Fork Valley, Colorado community. In addition, we host YOU MATTER Fentanyl & Overdose Raising Awareness Day event to support others and let them know they are not alone. This day aims to raise awareness, reduce the stigma of drug related deaths and fentanyl poisoning and remember those who have died or suffered permanent injury. It offers all who have been affected a chance to mourn and help the community learn about overdose and fentanyl publicly and through the lived experiences shared. Illicit drugs are dangerous and no-one is immune to overdose.

Sharing Our Lived Experience


We need to talk...
How do we save lives? Have honest “real” conversations surrounding fentanyl. We share our message and create awareness for schools and other organizations. Fentanyl is taking the lives of teens as this may be their first introduction to illicit drugs. Substance use comes with red flags, but with how easy it is to purchase "fake pills" that are fentanyl on social media, there are no red flags. So it could be the very first time your loved one uses an illicit drug. LISTEN to our VOICES. You don't have to have the disease of addiction to die from fentanyl poisoning. We are fighting to SAVE LIVES

We would be honored to talk to your organization about this epidemic and create awareness.

Awareness Photography


"The process of photography fully immerses us in an energized focus. It creates awareness by observing our surroundings and draws us into a peaceful meditative state. We begin to see the little things and how they may relate to our lives, providing a creative, healthy outlet in our journey of healing. It's mindfulness, a tool for how we interpret the world around us. Photography is a way of choice as to what you wish to focus, compose, and what you choose to​ leave out of the frame a way of healing!"
​- Cath Adams, Professional Photographer
Founder of Awareness Photography Outlets

Photography is "receiving" just as the light is reflected and received by the camera lens. When the photographic moment arrives, we can accept it fully, with our whole hearts. A creative approach in utilizing the art of photography as a tool to explore and tell a story can be a positive outlet for challenging situations. Embarking on a photographic journey is a form of self expression, an awareness of the beauty of our natural environment, a way to find enjoyment and make sense of complicated world.
Discover the beauty of the world and watch the creative eye unfold.
We capture imagery with Pinhole, Digital and Insta Cameras.

Balance In Nature


Being active outdoors is nature's therapy and helps nurture your place, purpose in the universe. Nature is a reminder of what it's like to breathe, and it makes a perfect complement to many health strategies—taking in the fresh air and movement, whether a walk or hike can enrich your experience and open conversation to express your feelings as a step to healing. Our adventures begin with grounding into nature, embracing the journey, and celebrating the destination. We would be honored to walk with you on your journey.

"Given my "lived experience" that contains many layers of learning, grief of my daughter, healing, meaning and purpose, I have vowed that I will never let any parent, family member and the one with the disease of addiction walk alone. I launched Aperture of Hope to support those in recovery and families of addicted loved ones and grief by connecting with community."
