New News

Over the past eight months or so, a lot has changed in my life. A lot of hurt followed by a lot of growth. I had a lot of growing up to do which brought with it new friendships, new places, new direction for my life, and new perspectives. And it's definitely a continual process!

So, along with all this "new" news I figured I'd start new with this - this blog, this photography thing. And what better way than with mini-sessions! :D I'm beyond excited! Here's why:




























All of the profits from these mini-session will be going directly to a ministry I truly believe in that's right in our backyard. I have personally seen them impacting the lives of youth as I was able to photograph some of their Summer Style events the past few weeks. By being able to sit back and watch the volunteers interacting with these kids, this ministry really grabbed my heart. As a teenager, I always said, "I want to go to Africa." (Or somewhere of equal need.) And although adults, especially my parents, constantly told me that there were people close to us in need.. I never understood it until I experienced it. Maybe my parents actually know a thing or two ;).

Check out True to Life Ministries to see what it's all about!

Now, the mini-sessions.. $50 for a 45 minute session that gives you 25-50 edited photos on a CD.
