From October 17 - October 27th I had the opportunity to serve in Cebu City and Bohol in the Philippines through my church's international organization, GlobalX. The original purpose was to serve teen victims of sex trafficking and prostitution. However, the trip became much more than that when on October 15th, Bohol was badly damaged by a M7.2 earthquake. The team I ventured overseas with also served in Bohol, delivering water,...

After a long hiatus I am finally getting back into the swing of things here in Atlanta. So to kick off my return to photo blogging, I will be coming back soon with photos from my most recent mission trip to Cebu City in the Philippines. Due to the recent natural disasters the Philippines has been getting a lot of press lately, even here in the States. It is so crazy to think that I just missed a 7.2 magnitude earthquake AND the...

I just cannot stay away. Plus, I decided it was time to visit some of my old supervisors from my work study days and plan a future lunch date. I enjoyed catching up with some of my favorites and hearing that I simply don't age. Nope...sure don't. He he. ...

What I remember most about my first day of "unemployment" is a fun impromptu visit from my Scottie little sister Lathasia who hails from Houston. I haven't seen her since she graduated from our alma mater so I was delighted that I had an opening in my usually busy schedule to spend some time with her. She got to see my new home and then we kicked it in East Atlanta. Oh and she had one hell of a time in my backyard. I love her...

I'm so behind on posting images lately! I thought with the absence of a typical 9 to 5 that I would have more time for this, but it has fallen a bit to the wayside. So here are some shots from my friend Keonda's portrait session that she had with me at the very start of September. It had been quite some time since I photographed her, and she got a discounted rate for making a donation to my mission trip to Cebu City to work with...

In the midst of a flurry of last minute life path changes I squeezed in a quick shoot with former Scottie, Amanda. She was in Atlanta for just a short while before beginning a new academic year at a different university, but wanted some photos of her around the beautiful campus to remember it by. I had to literally meet her at sunrise and then rush to my (now former) day job. It was worth every minute. Here are a few from her...

This past Saturday, I took a trip up to Big Canoe with my GlobalX team that will be travelling to the Philippines this October. It was nice to get away from the hustle and bustle of Atlanta, as well as get to know each of these amazing women a little better. I was especially glad that for just one weekend I could take a break from harassing people for donations since I EXCEEDED my 50% fundraising mark by the deadline! Here are...

My friends and their sense of humor... Today is a special day to me for a number of reasons. The first is that it is a Sabbath, a day of rest. It is the day I take each week to SLOW DOWN and reflect on the week gone by and re-enegerize for the week ahead. Second, I just so happen to be one year closer to 30 (never mind my dyslexic friend who swapped the candles to tease me). Third, I read a devotional this morning...
