Summer Landscapes

Sometimes, in the early morning hours, i sit on our porch and watch the dawn turn to daylight.

The light opens up to expose what darkness left behind.

The world wakes

I watch and listen.

This life is full of curiosity and so many unknowns.

This summer has been a gift.  It has gone by so fast, yet full of so many adventures and memories.

This summer i began taking my photography to new levels.  My business is picking up, and I'm hopeful  that one day it will be my full time gig.

I love looking at the world with a camera in hand.  The little details that i never noticed before are so beautiful and heart stopping.

And sometimes, when you have writers block, you just need to chill out and give yourself a break.  

To grasp the beauty of this life, you must look at it in multiple perspectives.

This summer, i felt the warmth of the sun on my face.

I felt the cool, soft grass beneath my feet.

I tasted the first cucumber out of the garden.

I held my husbands hand and heart as we said goodbye to our Papa.

I held so many babies in my arms, thankful for their sweet smiles and laughter.

I smiled at how perfectly this life works out, even when you think it won't.

I love this ride we're on, it's only getting better <3
