✨Beauty in the Chaos✨
Something my 1st photography mentor always taught - “Find beauty in the chaos” and that is exactly what I’m doing with this post 😅🫶🏻 we are in the middle of signing papers, packing boxes, homeschooling, and confirming appointments for our move and I needed to share and be reminded of beautiful, slow moments like this.
Story time 📖:
I last minute decided to go to the Philippines in October 2025 after my grandpa ended up in the hospital about 1 month prior. I hadn’t been there in 10 years and I wanted to be able to get at least one more memory with him and my family there. I’m so happy I went. Sure there were tons of earthquakes and tsunamis happening and it was a little nerve racking going because of them, but God truly blessed our time there. I got to take these gorgeous photos of my cousin, spend quality time holding my Papas hand, witness and capture my cousin getting engaged, and give my Papa one last big hug and kiss before he ended up passing a few days after we arrived back in the States. God was so good to me and our family to bless us with such beautiful memories ✨🏝️
I can’t wait to hug my family again & see this sweet girl again ❤️ our family lives all over the world from England, New Zealand, Australia, & the states, but I’m thankful we feel as close as we do despite the distance between us ❤️
