Today marks three months until the day I wake up, put on an ethereal floor-length white gown, and look in the mirror to see a bride. Three months until I will become one with a man that God spent 27 years preparing for me. Which is pretty awe-inspiring when you take into account that I’ve […]

I have a friend. A best friend. You know her well (or at least you should), if for nothing else, because she’s a photographer worth remembering and has an awesome Éowyn vibe  about her. 🙂 I could say like a million and one things about what a spectacular individual she really is…and I probably will try to scratch the surface […]

I know I’m not the only one that has attempted a grueling daily/weekly photo/blog challenge before. And hopefully I can’t be the only one that has utterly failed. Sometimes it’s just too much!! Sadly, you can’t very well have a 365 project if you only stay sane enough to accomplish 247. And 52 projects are pretty […]
