Taelor

I had the joy of capturing some fun shots with Taelor this last weekend as we explored some unexpected Tacoma treasures! The shoot was part of an exchange of sorts, because you see, she's kind of a big deal when it comes to doing anything and everything in beauty: hair, makeup, style, encouragement, wisdom, grace...you name it! All said, she offered some of her expertise in exchange for an adventurous photo-shoot so that I can expand my portfolio. How could someone say no to a day with this amazing girl? They don't. Here's some little nuggets from our day together!

       

 

 

LA Dream Center

An LA sunset is a peculiar thing. As the sun rays illuminate the thick smog, for a moment you forget that the smog is in reality an immense accumulation of pollution, rather than a beautiful tool to cast colors and rays across the sky as used by the sun. For many, you see a skyline, but for the team of us that spent a week inside this skyline, we see and know and remember so much more. It was as if God allowed us to be His smog: despite our utterly polluted human nature, we were somehow able, by His divine grace,  to be used as His tools to cast his light and love to the "least of these" taking refuge in this city.

  

 27. Twenty-seven pairs of hands and feet from Seattle, serving the LA Dream Center for one week. For many, we weren't sure what to think or expect about what God was bringing our way.

    

   

 

 

 

 

"Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men"

Colossians 3:23

 

"But Jesus called the children to him and said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”

Luke 18:16-17
