Fall = Beautiful outdoor pictures!

Well, the fall weather is here and the trees are beginning to turn.  I had two photography sessions this morning with beautiful weather and even more beautiful children!!  I am so enjoying this experience and have set a goal to earn $500 of my $5000 by Christmas.  I'm continuing to spread the word and am praying for many more picture sessions in the coming weeks.

Now,  to turn to the water crisis for a moment as I'm reminded of why I want to achieve this goal in the first place.  According to Charity:Water's website 1 in 8 people on this planet drinks unclean water!!  I look at my life and realize how truly blessed we are!!  I never worry about my children's water, food, shelter, clothing...and can't imagine how not having clean water would effect every aspect of a person's life.  I want to achieve this goal because it is achievable and I believe it is my responsibility to do something!!  I'm learning that as I do this small act to help others I am gaining so much and my life is being blessed in return.  Something that starts out for others has become something I am passionate & excited about and truly enjoying!!  Thanks for your continued support and prayers and please spread the word or set up your family's pictures today!

$75 and counting!!

I've officially received my first two donations and have $75 towards my $5000 goal.  It's exciting to see that, although it may take me a while, this is actually achievable!!  I have two upcoming photography sessions scheduled and with the weather cooling and the leaves beginning to change I foresee business  picking up even more.  I still feel very positive and motivated to see this through and am enjoying every opportunity I get to photograph!!
