Farmgirl Photography by Melody Born & raised a farm girl in PA - always had a passion for all of God's amazing & beautiful creations, love sharing my photos with my friends & family :) xoxo

A short gist of my life: Raised on a farm with my 7 brothers and sisters and wonderful parents. I have an incredible loving & giving husband of nearly 24 years. We have two great, hard-working sons. I volunteer my time to my hubby & father-n-laws machinery business and help my hubby pick up cardboard at various businesses that we also recycle. I've been a sahm for awhile, loved being there for my

boys, helping out at school store when they were little and most of all I was nearby and close to keep an eye on my parents. My life has been great, but four years ago a tragedy struck my family. We lost 4 family members in 2010, one of them was my mom. She had severe strokes and was taken home for us kids to care for. She passed Sept. 18. :( Since then I have struggled with depression and a loss so hard to explain, she was my nearest & best friend, my yard sale/grocery shopping/cooking buddy & so much more. I could always count on her for everything, she would even attend events for the kids when my hubby couldn't, she was the best and kindest grandmother. So I been struggling, trying to move forward and release the guilt I feel has been a challenge. I still think of her and miss her everyday, my life will never be the same without her in it. My babies/sons are all but grown-up, Micah my youngest graduates shortly. My boys have always been independent and able to do things for themselves, they learned that quality from their amazing father. So here I am, a mother who is not as needed as much as she was when they were younger, what do I do with my time, no mother to care for any longer and sons that will soon be on their own. It's time to get out of this rut. My story continues:
I've been yearning for a descent digital camera for a number of years, one day I came upon a good deal and my hubby said to get it....as a late anniversary gift. Ever since I received this camera, its like my eyes and soul have been opened more widely to all the intricate little things in life and creation. Once again I have a passion in my life, something I thought I'd never find. So with the encouragement and love from my family and friends to pursue this, here I am. I'm doing this because I know my mom would want me to move on and be happy in all I do. I hope you all enjoy what I share. Thanks for following me, I really do appreciate it and love to hear your feedback. This page is in memory of my beautiful, kind and loving mother: Janice Eileen Snyder-Schlegel - I love you mom!!!!

I took this the other evening. I pulled over and watched about a dozen deer jump off the bank at the old schoolhouse on my parents farm. I happened to get my camera out in time and capture these beauties. ♡

The sunset on this evening was truly amazing and intensified in color with each passing minute. This is Bo, my sons dog, sweetly sitting and watching it with me.

Looks can be deceiving...this pretty, but invasive w**d known as mile-a-minute w**d or devil's tail is growing like crazy on our property. It can grow up to six inches a day, but I mostly despise its numerous tiny prickly barbs on the vines.
