I've been keeping journals since I was in the 3rd grade and I'm so glad to share some of my most intimate life moments with you here!  Here, you'll find inspirational and encouraging stories of me and other broken people like me. We are all jars of clay who have been afflicted in every way, but not crushed...struck down by not destroyed.  Here, you do NOT have the right to remain silent, so as you read, grab your favorite snack and drink and leave a comment...share YOUR story. I can't wait to connect with you in this beautiful safe space. 

welcome to my

journal!

LESLIE + TREVOR | LOVE SESSION | HAMPTON ROADS LOVE PHOTOGRAPHER

When Leslie submitted her husband in for my birthday contest, I could just feel the love for him in her email. Her husband is a broadcaster in the United States Air Force and spends so much time behind the camera, that getting in front them in front of my lens was pretty  much a no-brainer. […]
