In a lot of ways, this summer played out completely differently than all the rest. Instead of slowing down as I hoped, things were quite the opposite…and I didn’t mind that one bit. + worked and worked and worked. + spontaneity and lightheartedness for the heck of it. + nights out and good times. + […]

Before school came to a close last year, I was fortunate enough to become a part of Chick-fil-A and work behind their counters. These past 12 weeks have been pure bliss. I absolutely love my job and I am so grateful for every moment I spend at the store. Wonderful people who make my time […]

“Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD.” —Psalm 27:14 There’s a lot in my life that happens unexpectedly. And when things don’t go as planned, I start to panic. I am a huge planner. I think making lists is insanely fun, and having every aspect of my life […]

I’m a sixteen year old girl who prefers to listen rather than talk. I have a quiet voice, but when I sing to myself or shout loudly, heads turn, which, makes me uncomfortable. And I reaaally don’t like being outside of my comfort zone. I only play the piano when I think nobody’s listening, I […]

The same day that I went to take Blake and Mallory’s Portraits at Kennesaw Mountain, Mallory’s sister, Meredith came along. Of course, I wanted to take some photos of her, too. 🙂
