It's been a while since I last posted, so here's a recap of some of my favorites over the last year 🙂

Sometimes, you gotta use the camera you have! Didn't bring my tripod by mistake, so this ended up being a phone shoot!

Some pictures from our latest trip that I captured on my phone. The best camera you have is the one you have with you!

A relaxing, but exciting trip to Yosemite! As much as I love the Gulf Coast, being able to leave my own backyard allows me to better appreciate both the other wonders of the world while also giving respect for the beauty of my own surroundings. More pictures to come as I am able to review and post them!

More to come, but a sneak peek from my latest journey. 🙂

Stay tuned!

My New Years' resolution? Learning how to better cherish and be in the moment even before I capture the moment. My favorite part of photography is the experience of it all. Being able to capture it and take a little reminder of that experience back with me is just an added bonus! But remembering to take a step back and experience the moment instead of viewing the world only through a viewfinder or screen is equally important. After all, what good are those memories if all you bring back are pictures?
