I’ve been a photographer for about eight years, and one thing I’ve strayed away from is weddings. I know a few wedding photographers, and when I saw Alysha Miller’s work I had to applaud her and give major kudos. A wedding day is not something  you can do over. It doesn’t fit into your creative whim and there is an order and a deadline for when things need to be done. The way Alysha has been able to capture the romance between newlyweds and newly engaged couples through all forms of lighting takes my breath away. The best thing about her inspiration and skill is her acknowledgement that it’s from God himself, and I’m excited to see where God places her next steps.

Along with working in the entertainment industry, Jerrell Conner is the Creator of the bible-based comic Revelations: The Prophets and is the Senior Illustrator for Eggizo Entertainment’s Restoration: Judges. I’ve witnessed his deep love for God and spreading the gospel more than anyone else has since we’ve been married for over six years. Some say that the arts is a dark world, but there are so many amazing artists who are taking the industry by storm. Jerrell is one of them, and has no plans of slowing down anytime soon. Be sure to follow his career because there are several major announcements coming up soon. Continue reading “Promo Tuesday with Jerrell Conner”

I met Arielle after hearing her perform spoken word at an event a few months ago. To say I was speechless is an understatement. As she came in for a hug, I commented on how humble, sweet, and approachable she was. She replied “I’m not really familiar with what a “stranger” is. I don’t know what that looks like.” I’ve never heard someone describe themselves that way before, but immediately God told me that the way she was created was to give others a sense of “home”. I agree. Her poetry and personality is comforting and validating at the same time. What she’s embarking on as an artist and truth seeker has already started a movement, and I’m totally on board. If you’re free THIS Saturday April 2nd, you can attend her EP Release party for “Symphony of Lioness”. More details here. Continue reading “Promo Tuesday with Arielle Estoria”

Confirmation Station

This article was originally written in August of 2009 on my personal blog. Thank you for reading!

Being a Christian, I choose to go the way God leads me and seek His advice when it comes to making decisions in my life–major and minor. Confirmation is a way He lets me know I’m on the right path. For those of you who are unfamiliar with that term, it’s when God shows or tells you something more than once that directly relates to something you are going through. An example would be if you feel you are struggling with anger in your life, and you hear a scripture pertaining to that subject at church, on the radio, AND from a friend during a short period of time. This is a tool I’ve become familiar with using ever since my FIRST confirmation experience.

My family was in the process of buying a house, and it seemed like everything was going wrong and we might not get the home we’d been praying for, visiting, and planning our futures in. On a particularly stressful day, I asked God to help me find an encouraging scripture for us that would let us know everything would be alright and that the house was indeed ours. The answer to my question soon became my favorite scripture to date. If you remember, I mentioned it in my post titled “Speechless“. I shared it with my mom and I was so proud of myself because it was the first time I had taken it upon myself to FIND an answer in the huge bible she had given me months before. She even told one of her friends about it and laughed at how I’d done it.

I’ve been blessed to see Sticky Rice blossom from the ground up. You hear about human trafficking in the news almost on a daily basis, and sometimes wonder “How can I help?” There is a plethora of amazing organizations who have made it easier than ever to be involved in the fight to secure freedom for the unfortunate victims. My friend Melissa has made a unique platform that offers change on so many levels, and I would be remiss if I didn’t highlight her efforts so that you can join in.

Promo Tuesday with Heroic Art Studios

HaStudios

My friend Jeffery has been pursuing arts since he can remember, but his passion turned into a ministry the day he created Heroic Art Studios. There has already been so much progress since the company started in October of 2014. Through comic books and animation, he’s found himself among some of the greats of the industry at comic conventions, and has also debuted a preview of the animation he’s been working on. It’s amazing to see someone respond to God’s call, and then witness everything falling into place to turn their dreams into a reality. Continue reading “Promo Tuesday with Heroic Art Studios”

Speechless

This article was originally written in July of 2009 on my personal blog. Thank you for reading!

Recently, a few people have commented on how they most appreciate my singing above my other gifts. I’d have to say that falls pretty low on my list of favorites. The reason being that it exposes who I am. My voice is ME. I can’t hide behind a camera, layers of makeup, a fictional character, my fears…or silence.

Silence is something I clung to because I feared my words would fall on disinterested ears. “People don’t care what I have to say.” Being a Christian I know these are words the enemy uses to stop me from spreading God’s message. Keeping me from loving others with my advice, encouraging words, humor, and music. Continue reading “Speechless”

I’ve known the founder of MLove Life for years, and she’s always had an uncanny ability to share the details of a holistic lifestyle in a very simplistic way. Changing the way you think about your diet can be very overwhelming, but over the years I’ve been able to feel and see the positive effects it has had on my life. One of the ways she shares her life is through the ministry of nutrition and sharing how we can treat our bodies like the temples they are. Along with health, Melissa shares her journey of motherhood, putting together a beautiful home, fashion, and a sneak peak into her fabulous scripture-based cook book in the making.

I heard great things about the organization Get. Give. Grow. before I had the pleasure of one day meeting its founder Ashli B. through a mutual friend a few years ago. One thing I remember most about that day is her passion to serve the Lord, and her creativity that has no bounds. I’ve never known much about business branding, but this woman is a guru and has major clientele patronizing her services. I’ve been blessed to be a contributing writer for her blog, and our ministry opportunities are just at the beginning. Her path is limitless and it’s a blessing and an encouragement seeing how God is growing her small business while having a family on top of that.
