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!

Found the perfect field!

Last Monday, we spent the day in Knoxville with my sister-in-law. She had been wanting us to take some pictures of her co-worker and her girls for a while, but it seems like every time we go to Knoxville, we have super tight time. But finally, we made it! And I'm so glad we did! I had been wanting to use a field for pictures but I never found the perfect field. Well, right in front of her house, here it is! It was great! The girls were so good and the mom and girls did great at posing and interacting to capture some candids! I hope you enjoy them!

Last week we headed to Maine to take pictures of Nate´s pastor´s daughter´s wedding. It was a winter theme wedding with a lot of lights and white trees. They also had a lighthouse theme reception :) They both love lighthouses and something important happened in their relationship at a lighthouse! I love it when couples use things they have in common for their weddings! We were also able to bring some Dunkin Donuts coffee cups to use as props!

Due to the cold and the light, we had to take the pictures inside the church building. It was something I was worried about, but it ended up turning out great! I prayed really hard and prepared and brainstormed a lot the 2 nights before :) God blessed!

They were one of the cutest couples I´ve seen! I loved seeing them interact. Honestly, they were too cute! I cant wait to see them again!

Also, while in Maine, we were able to share our burden for Spain at the church. At every meeting we have, our burden and desire to go to Spain increases. We cannot wait to go to Spain! We have so many plans and ideas to start a church there! The church in Maine was a huge blessing to us! We are truly thankful for all the words of encouragement, prayers, and everything! God is blessing us in a tremendous way!

We hope you have a wonderful weekend! :)

The Pose!!! And a handsome little baby :)

And here is another handsome boy! And the pose that I've been trying to do for the past 4 sessions! It ended up not being as hard as I thought. I was just not doing it right :) But I was so pleased with the results in this image!

This baby was so good too! I had been praying that the session would be easy and the baby would be calm and happy :) And this baby just let me pose him too without barely any complain. Such a sweet handsome boy! The parents helped me sooooo much, and let me tell you, having grandma there is really helpful too! She was a blessing to me!
I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Babies :)

I am enjoying a lot taking pictures of babies. I'm not going to lie, but certain poses become a little hard and challenging. But once they work and the baby stays in that position, the result is totally worth it! The images just end up beautiful and so calm looking! Not beautiful because of the photographer, beautiful because of the subject :)

The most fun thing about baby pictures is how you can get all the props together and build the picture, the scenery, everything. And if done well, it can be a beautiful work of art! That's what I'm aiming to do :) I'm hoping to be able to get more practice and better props, and be able to make photographs a work of art!

This baby let us pose him without barely complaining! And it also helped having his parents help me for all the poses! I am so thankful to have such amazing clients! God is blessing us in a great way!

I hope you enjoy these images!
