I like to “stop and smell the roses” as they say…

If there is a flower or a sunrise/sunset… I will be stopping to admire it 😅

People ask me all the time why I stopped pursuing photography full-time.

The truth is, somewhere along the way, I realized God wasn’t calling me to build a career around senior portraits, weddings, or constantly filling a calendar with sessions.

He started pulling my heart somewhere else.

Toward marketing.
Toward storytelling.
Toward churches and ministries.
Toward small businesses.
Toward people and communities that deserve to be seen.
And, obviously, toward libraries. 🤎📚

Photography never really left my life.
It just became a tool for something bigger.

Recently, I got to photograph a Disability Inclusive VBS…where I was BLESSED to capture individuals being welcomed, included, celebrated, and loved exactly as they are!

And moments like these remind me why God redirected me.

I still don’t completely know what He is building with all the random gifts He’s given me…photography, writing, marketing, storytelling, motherhood, ministry…
(Some days I feel so lost)
But every day I get another little glimpse of a bigger picture.

And honestly, I’m so grateful I stopped chasing what I thought my career was supposed to look like and started paying attention to where God was actually leading me. 🤎

I may or may not already have my weekend reading plans figured out. 🤭📚✨

I’m so excited to finally dive into Between the Stars and House of Hallock by my incredibly talented friend, Musi Trappe !

There is something extra special about getting to hold a book in your hands that someone you know poured their heart, imagination, and countless hours into. Watching a friend chase a dream like this is just the coolest thing…🤎

And the best part? I get to take these beauties with me to have them signed at her upcoming book event! (September 5th The Gilded Page Literary Lounge TX )

If you’re local, you should come out, grab a copy of Between the Stars, meet Musi, and support a local author doing something pretty incredible!

Also, if you haven’t been to The Gilded Page yet, ADD IT TO YOUR LIST. I stopped by the other day and it is such a sweet little bookish spot. Definitely worth wandering around, finding your next read, and supporting a local bookstore while you’re there. 📚☕️(They also have COFFEE)

So proud of you, Musi. Seeing your name printed across the front of your own books is just… 😭👏🏼 What a beautiful thing to get to celebrate.

Now excuse me while I disappear into these for the weekend. 🤎📖

I’ve been reading a book recently on childhood development, and today, a few things hit me so hard they brought me to tears…

Earlier, I was sitting on the floor playing tea party with my daughter. I looked at her and thought, “Oh my goodness, this is so cute. I need a picture!” 📸

So I stopped stirring my imaginary tea and snapped a picture of our simple little setup.

Not even an hour later, I was back to reading…and I genuinely think God knew when I picked up this book that it would be exactly what I needed in this season.

As I read about adventure, boredom, childhood development, and recent psychological studies, the author brought up something that stopped me:

How often do we feel like we have to document a moment instead of simply living in it?

And even more convicting, how many times do our children look up at us throughout the day, searching for a tiny moment of connection, only to find us looking down at our phones?

Oof. 😭

As someone whose job revolves around digital media and advertising, who loves researching psychology and development, and who is actively attending college… this one got me.

Because if I’m being honest, I know this is an area God has been calling me to work on.

And I haven’t always done a fantastic job.

(For the record, my children are napping or having quiet time while I write this. 😂)

But maybe someone else needs the reminder I needed today:

Yes, there are only so many hours in a day…and a million things constantly asking for our attention….

But there are also only so many years we get with our children while they are children.

And one day, there won’t be an imaginary cup of tea waiting for me on the floor. 😭

The more I learn about childhood development, the more I realize how much I still have to learn.

I know I’ll get things wrong. I already have.

But I hope one day my children look back and know that even when I failed, I never stopped learning, growing, or asking God to make me better.

And most importantly, I hope they remember that I put the phone down…

and drank the imaginary tea. 🤎

When you know who’s about to ask, “Is it I?” 😭🍞🍷

Wherever I go, she goes 📸🤎🤣
Anybody else have an attachment to their camera? And what’s your emotional support lens? lol

It’s funny until you realize…
we’ve all been Peter at some point.

Stepping out in faith one minute,
and panicking the next.

Grateful He still reaches for us
even when we start to sink 🤎

Episode 12 🤎📚 | Freeport
( Freeport Branch Library )

The final chapter… but not the end of the story.

Freeport, you were the perfect place to “end” this journey.
A library rooted in history, filled with stories, and held together by people who genuinely care about their community.

Over the past 12 stops, I’ve learned this:
Libraries aren’t just buildings with books…
they’re places that grow us. Stretch us. Challenge us.
Sometimes all at once!

This may be the last stop in the Brazoria County series…
but it’s not the last time I’ll be showing love to the places that shape our communities.

So tell me…
where should we go next? 🤎📚✨
