Sweet 16

She slowly opened the door and there I stood jaw dropped and stunned with her beauty. It wasn't just the luxurious, shiny, princess-sleeved ebony jacket deliciously topped off with a most lavishly decadent bow that she was wearing. It wasn't even the hot pink elongated, grand, floor-sweeping, grand, flowing mermaid skirt that I was most captivated with. No, it was something much more. It was her grace and poise that captured my attention. It was her confidence in who she was, not what she was wearing that swept me off my feet. Oh Sweet 16's hair was beauty shop worthy -though she fixed it herself. Sweet 16's lip gloss was sparkling sweet. Sweet 16's eyes were beautifully pure. Sweet 16's skin was a radiant gleam. But through all of the outward beauty, I saw what was within. "Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.Proverbs 31:31

Humble TX Photographer: My Chocolate Lab

She is the sweetest girl. If she could go with us everywhere, she would. If I could take her everywhere I would. She has separation anxiety. When Wittles is with her she seems to do better. But Wittles is an entirely different story. I must get lunch now. For my belly is about to cave in or I'd share some of Wittles' stories with you. For now, I'll leave you with what I have to put up with all day long with these two.
ps...Tiggy are you out there? I love you! (Tiggy is my aunt;)

(long a sound)

This is Wittles. She's a mess. She adorable. She is mean to Diba sometimes. She is cuddly. Yes, that's the fan...our noise maker at night or during a nap. It's been through alot.

They follow me wherever I go.

Humble Photographer: My Light

When exposed to Light I am clean, pure, radiant.
The Light feels warm on my face.
The Light brings out the best in me.

In thy light shall we see light. Psalms 27:1
As I looked at the first photo of me that my youngest shot, I began noticing the vast difference of light and it's effects on my face. The right side of my face is glowing and radiant, impurities erased. The right side is seemingly flawless with the prettiest of browns reflected and shown in my eyes.
While the side with shadows and darkness tend to only magnify my imperfections. The only good thing about the dark side is that my chin hair is not visible. I choose to live as the second photo suggests...in His light.

Shine on me, in me, through me Lord. Amen.

The LORD is my light and salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

My breath, my sunshine, my all in all!

Out of Town

Hi to all! I'll be out of town until Friday, January 23rd. I'll respond to emails and phone calls when I return. Blessings to you and yours. -JAMIE

Humble TX Photographer: Glorious Light

I'm sure I looked like the little Dr. in Hyde and Hare. When I saw it, I twitched and contorted my face. It just ambushed me when I walked into the room. Not seeing it for a few days does that to some people. (me) The sun was bright and warm. It's rays were gloriously filling one particular spot in my bedroom. Angels were singing and dust was magnified heavily. Ew.

I looked for a vict...I mean subject. "Oh the cute little blondie will do just fine," I thought to myself. "Hey, B...let mama take some pictures of you real quick." "Okay!" "Wha? Let me get my camera. Hop up on the bed and sit right where the light is." Oh mesmerizing, spellbinding, make-me-melt sunshine-o-mine. Wahahahahahaaaaaaaaa!

Click. Click. "Oh yah, that's great!" "You done?" "Wha?" "Uh just a few more baby." And then I saw it: The Fan. We have it as a noise maker when we sleep. (Our ceiling fan went all Willy Wonka on us or "Wonkified" if you will.) "Oh my goodness! Let's turn on the fan! "Let's turn on The Fan and see what it does to your hair!" "Okay." These are some of my favorite images ever. I love that littlest blondie girl of mine.

Sniffing.

Ahhhhhh! Sheet washing day. Silly face.

Intro: The Fan.
