Welcome to our blog! We are missionaries to Spain who use photography to be a blessing to other missionaries and pastors. Since then, God has truly blessed our hobby and we are enjoying taking pictures even more! Feel free to comment! We love hearing about people and sharing experiences on photography, missions, and God!

Graduation!

These pictures were not taken professionally, sorry about that!


Here with Nate's twin sister who graduated too

Right before graduation! Nate is the biggest blessing I've received from the US ;)

Getting my diploma

Getting my International Language Navigators certificate. I'm officially an English as a second language teacher :) I know it sounds contradicting not being English my first language!



My great cousin Francisco! My first couple of years were so fun thanks to my cousins Francisco and Alberto! Then they left right after they hooked me up with Nate! and Nate made the rest  the best years of this journey! Alberto and Ashley are in Spain now as missionaries and Francisco and his wife Rebekah will be there soon too! I'm so proud of them! The 4 of them are great godly people and I know the Lord is going to bless them greatly!




And finally, after 4 years of hard work (honestly hard work because I'm a nerd..) I graduated!!!! wohooooooo!!!! What a great feeling!!!! As I have mentioned before, it was my dream since I was a little girl, to go to a foreign country, learn the language fluently, and go to college there. I made it! Well, I could have never accomplished anything without God. And the best part, God gave me the most wonderful person to be with during this journey and for the rest of my life :)
So you might be wondering what I majored in... Bachelor in Secondary Education with a business major. I know, nothing to do with photography...but it's what the Lord guided me to do! and He was blessed us greatly with photography! And I know this degree will be a great help for when we go to Spain as missionaries!

The weekend was so busy! We had a few photoshoots scheduled that we had to postpone because of the rain... so we were only able to do one. But we had a wonderful time with Nate's family and with our friends. We missed them!

We have a wedding coming up soon!!!!! We are very excited to be able to capture our bride and groom's special day and we are praying we will be a blessing to all our brides and grooms this summer! It is such a blessing to have this job! Oh! and we added a new camera to our gear! We should be receiving it this week! I've wanted it for soooo long!

Have a wonderful weekend and thank you for stopping by!
