My Best Friend and her kiddos

I took some photos of my best friend for her husband, and of course her kids are adorable too. So I had to take photos of them. I love this family. They are all so gorgeous and have the most beautiful blue eyes!

Lynn

This is my beautiful foster daughter. There are days when she drives me crazy, but I still love her. She's incredibly photogenic.

Chesnee Easter

I get to photograph this little girl several times a year. She's so precious and always a joy to do a session with. We were able to go to a friend's farm to take pictures with baby chicks, a bunny rabbit, and a lamb. How awesome is that! 

Michaela

I took these photos of this beautiful girl on her birthday. She's so gorgeous!

Natalia's Newborn Session

I'm so behind on my blog posts. I'm going to try and catch up and post the sessions I've done recently. This little girl is so beautiful, and she was so fun to photograph. Enjoy a little taste of her session.

I Want to be Radical

So I love to read, especially books that challenge me and the way that I'm living. Radical by David Platt has done exactly that. David Platt challenges us to actually take Jesus at His word. He challenges us to stop trying to live and chase after the American dream, but to live out God's design for our lives. He tells us that God wants us to go out and make disciples of ALL nations. I was floored to read about the number of people who don't know Christ and those who have never even heard of Christ. David Platt holds us accountable, and shows how we are failing as an American Church when we see and hear of so many who have never heard the Gospel. He calls us out on the fact that we are living extravagantly when a countless number of people die every day from starvation and treatable diseases. We are more concerned with our success than the eternal state of people's souls. This book is a call to change your life and live out the Bible, and it will make you uncomfortable. We are provoked to love extravagantly, to pray for others daily, to give of our time, our money, and our resources until it hurts. I'm taking this challenge. This book has helped me to take the focus off of myself, while I still struggle with dying to myself everyday. I have realized that Christianity is NOT about me at all, it's not about what God has done for me, but it's about God, period. God did not save me for my sake, but He saved me for His namesake, so He can be glorified. God is the only one worth glory, honor, and praise. I would recommend this book to any follower of Jesus Christ who wants a deeper and more real relationship with God that takes the focus off of ourselves. David Platt has been used of God to convey the truth of God's word even though it may not be an easy pill for many to swallow.

I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review.

Ashley and Daniel Get Married

I was so blessed to be able to photograph this wedding. As I was finishing up bridal portraits with this bride it starting snowing, and we were able to get some beautiful pictures in the snow. This was a sweet and beautiful wedding. Enjoy the little preview.
