something new

          For a long time now I have been collecting photographs, taking so many of them, feeling proud of  them, storing them, sometimes displaying them, but rarely speaking why they are so incredibly moving to me. I have come to realize these pieces of time that I take, that I name with my camera, are moments of depth, moments that matter to people. I am blessed to record them. To give them is not only my profession, it is my joy. It is how I serve and it is how I can give. In my heart, I don't need to paid for photographing an event, a wedding, or a family. It is more than being passionate about photography, it is  like light on a growing flower . It nourishes me, it moves me, without it, without a camera, my light glows dim, I am still and invisible. I am not myself. So I am blessed for the opportunities given to me and I bless back with the frame, with a single image captured, I show love that exists. I show proof of God.
          I am going to be posting a series of images, some of my most treasured photographs that I have taken. I just want a chance to showcase them and many of the people in them. You may have hired me with money for a service, but you also serve me and for that I am deeply thankful.
