Just speak.

i know you all have seen that i've been pursuing photography more "vigorously" lately, i've been out and about quite a bit over these past few weeks. and its really amazing!! i've been able to get to know people on a more personal level and i really love it.  to have the opportunity to sit and talk to a lot of my childhood friends, and people that i've just come to know thru my photos. their is so much to know and learn from just one simple conversation. i love people! i love to get to know people, the real people, the real stories, not the social media stuff. i feel like getting to know people on a personal level gives me the inspiration to photograph them in a way no one else can. (dont  get me wrong i dont know every detail about a person)
But sometimes its really good to get a little bit beneath the surface. There's so much to know about just ONE single person. the love, passion,joy,strength,heartache the brokenness. the struggle, the life they live. ive been so blown away by the willingness to open up and share a little bit about themselves with me. its been really inspiring to see where they have come from. the goals each and everyone of them have achieved. im inspired, i'm challenged, i'm encouraged to keep pushing forward. i love that God has made me so passionate about capturing raw feelings in the form of a photograph and i am so thankful that he has given me a talent i believe i am quite good at. (not a professional but ill get there someday) get to know people because it brings joy.                                                                     i leave you with this!
            1..be encouraged
            2.Think outside of the box
            3.LIVE vigorously

How much is TOO much..

So in my family there are A LOT of Alcoholics, and sometimes its just too much for me..So what do you do about taking what those people say, while there in that state of mind, with a grain of salt? Because sometimes i just want to straight up sucker punch them in the face! Dont get me wrong now, im not opposed to drinking ..Having a drink with friends and family is fine with me, BUT drinking everyday to get drunk just doesn't cut it..And i hate the excuse, i work all week, im tired so i deserve a drink. okay yes it may be true you may work so hard you feel a drink will calm your nerves but seriously get drunk every time?!? Then i have those in the family that get drunk and... A. Talk a lot of crap about people non stop B.could care less what anyone is talking about and want the attention on themselves C.Repeat themselves over and over D.become very abusive to anyone an...

Can i get a snow day from this snow day...

Never fails, Texas weather always puts a damper in my plans. Tuesday called for dental appointments for the little ones (not in school) a dine in lunch date and maybe a trip to target.. after all 3 kids are a piece of cake VS 5 and why not take advantage. Buuuuuuut NO! Texas decided to shut down its entire system due to dangerous weather conditions.. It literally was like 70 degrees yesterday, my kids were playing outside in shorts. in shorts you guys!  BAM today its 25 degrees, sleet, snow and icy roads. Oy snow days are not for the weak. having to entertain 4 children who cant play outside alllllll day and throw in a 6 month old who is the sweetest cutest spoiled little thing who likes, scratch that DEMANDS to be carried all hours of the day. My older two who are in school kicked nap time to the curb once they started school for obvious reasons. So getting them to nap along with the younger siblings is like pulling teeth.. haha seriously!  Id like a snow day from this ...

"Thats just the way my family is"

    I'd like to begin with saying,                           "Don't let people treat you poorly because you love them".      In the past 7 years i have learned a lot about "Family dynamics" from merging my family with my husbands. It has been an interesting 7 years let me tell you.. Some things i have learned about peoples view on "family dynamics"  is they are not always the best thing AND i really believe people believe they are doing well when they treat someone the way they treat them.. With that being said, i have learned a lot of what to do and what not to do..       Let me tell you, i was raised in a home that exhibited love, weather it was love through discipline or genuine love.. I can not remember a specific time i went without communicating how i felt about a certain thing or situation. Growing up in a house full of sisters one older than me and four youn...
