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!

I THINK I WANT YOU TO BE MY BRIDESMAID…| TEAM HARRIS | WEDDING WEDNESDAYS

For the past month or so, one of the questions I’ve been trying to answer is: “Who are your bridesmaids going to be?” Ok, can I be brutally honest here??

MS. CANDACE | COVER GIRL | VIRGINIA BEACH | SACHEL SAMONE | LOVE & PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER

I’m not sure where to begin when it comes to Candace. When I first met her, she was in her U.S. Air Force uniform, had her hair pulled back and to be perfectly honest, I don’t remember anything she said. The only thing I remember is her laugh and thinking to myself “my goodness she […]

JUST ANOTHER DAY | LIFE BEHIND MY LENS | SACHEL SAMONE | LOVE & PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER

To some, today is a day off from work. It’s a day of sleeping in, cookouts and beach relaxation. It’s the unofficial start of summer. But not to me. In all honesty, today is like any other day. With me being a military brat, with me being in a relationship with a service member…between me […]
