Happy Birthday to the one who makes me feel like I'm dancing through a field of flowers. It’s Caleb’s Birthday today!! Would be so awesome for you to show him so love! Caleb, you celebrate me everyday and make me feel like a princess, I’m so glad to celebrate you today and want to cherish and uplift you all the time! I’ve been reflecting a lot about this year of your life. There have been so many changes and challenges and I'm so impressed by the way that you keep pushing thr

In my last post I mentioned that I love my job. And I do. But that doesn’t mean it’s easy. I’m not on the other end yet where a lot of people I listen to talk about, Like @jennakutcher “I left my corporate job and now I make 6 figures running my own company.” I’m at that part where “I left my school teacher job and now I don’t make any money!” Haha I’m laughing, but inside it's tough. I’m so grateful to have a husband that is supporting me in this crazy dream of mine to be

I love my job! It’s such a gift to be invited into someones life, at such a special moments to take pictures so they’ll always remember. I was really sold on this job as a photographer after this wedding, and seeing the reaction of Pilar the bride with tears of joy streaming down her face. It made all the months of classes, sacrifices and hard work worth it. I love this beautiful family. 📸 I asked Wendy @wendalynnnnn my dear friend and Pilar’s daughter) to share about her ex

Happy Saturday! Woke up this morning to a wonderful note from my wife telling me how excited she is to spend the weekend with me. There is nothing better than to wake up to that and a big smile from her. She always goes out of her way to make me feel appreciated and loved, making me feel included and not forgotten. In our relationship, she has always gone out of her way to put me first and to work so hard to protect us. What I mean by protect us is to put things first in our

Is any part of your heart broken? Dead? Shattered? I think of brokenness in my life. I think of you. I think of some beautiful young friends I’ve known who have lost their lives too soon. I think of my past therapy clients and past students who struggled with self-hatred and depression. I think of loved ones who are going through very tough times. I cry for those who hearts feel dead today: who are living, but not really alive. I pray for them, for you and I am in agreement w

Do you ever wonder how it all began? 🌎 This view took my breath away. I know it sounds clique but it’s true. Caleb and I just visited the Grand Canyon and I agree with his assessment that seeing something that spectacular there’s no denying how big and great our God is. Creation is astounding and makes me think of how it all started “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and th

I love unexpected blessings and generous, thoughtful friends. Caleb and I were talking for several weeks about how much we wish we could go back to Disneyland, but wouldn’t have enough points on our credit card to go back for another year. This Sunday we were thinking we might be out of town or had some other plans but we are so glad none of that worked out because... We LOVE Disneyland as we’ve mentioned and on Sunday our good friends Sara and Tim texted us after we got b

Happy Tuesday! With a three day weekend behind us, there are so many things to look forward to as week take on another week. I was inspired by my wife this weekend as we go to go on adventures and spend our quality time together. She always has the ability to put things into perspective for me in our lives. She reminded me of how lucky we are to be together (as if I needed any reminding of that, I’m the luckiest man in the world) and that God has blessed us so much by bringin

There's no place like home. When we see this place we feel at home. We came here on our first date, we learned to dance on the upper walkway, and walk here several nights a week. It's a place we like to talk, reflect and is so peaceful in the midst of a busy city. Where's a place you like to go that feels like home? #cityhall #pasadena #home #love #firstdance #firstdate #husband #wife
