Summertime. Large Families. Life.

August 3, 2010

These pictures are proof that the best camera is always the one you have with you. In this case, it was my iPhone. It’s not the greatest quality- kinda fuzzy. It’s the memories that count, though. It’s one of the top reasons I am a photographer. When my future children look back on these pictures, [...]

Words, Hurt, and Grace

July 26, 2010

Why is it that I can write an inspiring blog post, but I can hurt the ones so incredibly dear to my heart so easily with my words?
Why do I attack with my words in one place and try to love and encourage with them in another?
Why did God chose me to give [...]

One Line A Day + One Thousand Gifts | The Gratitude Project: Day 1

July 16, 2010

First, read I found a cure for memory loss at PENSIEVE. It’s ok. Go on. I’ll wait. OK, wasn’t that a great idea? I thought so too! That coupled with Ann Voskamp’s Gratitude Community is something I’ve been needing. One memory a day (1-2 lines), numerous things to be grateful for (5,ooo total- throughout the course [...]

Your Bokeh Photos

July 13, 2010

(I’m 13 days late and more than one dollar short. I know.)

By ScrewedUpTexan This photo is simply perfection. The composition makes you feel like you are a little girl in a white sundress atop that tree. The colors and contrast are so feminine and dainty. This image makes me feel 5 again, sundress on, long [...]

Directory of Young Photographers

July 7, 2010

I have this idea. I know there are plenty of young photographers all over the place. I want to connect with them. I want all of us, as young photographers with businesses, to be able to connect with one another and help each other out. Maybe via a blog and directory combined? Maybe start out [...]

A Poverty

July 6, 2010

It is a poverty to decide that a child must die so that you may live as you wish. ~Mother Teresa
Let the words sink deep. Breathe. Act. Let love grow.
We all have different things God has called us to do. I won’t tell you what I do is what you need to do. God has called me to [...]

John 3:16

July 6, 2010

John 3:16 is probably the first Bible verse we ever memorized. I think hearing it so much kind of desensitizes us to its real meaning. I mean, even I almost didn’t name this post “John 3:16″ because I’ve heard it so much, that I presume you have too and it reminds me of the watered [...]

How to Identify a Blogger

July 3, 2010

My friend Dawn blogged earlier about how to identify a blogger. There is just a certain air about a blogger/crafter/writer/creative/photographer/small business owner. Bloggers totally get it.
To get a visual, go hop over to Dawn’s blog post. She has a picture and everything. (Unlike some of us. ahem)
