    I’m a little behind, catching up with you has been so great. I love, love, love your images. They are homey, they are welcoming (sort of the same but still) both words describe your images to me, plus of course very, very good. Looked like a wonderful day.

About Me

Hi There! I’m Kelly. I am a wife, mom, light seeker, homemaker, and storyteller. From an empty nest to an abundant life, all it took was a little time, a lot of faith, and the courage to see my life differently.

You can read more about my story here.

So now, armed with my trusty Canon camera, here is where I share my journey to live an inspired and intentional life.

Welcome to my little corner of the interwebs!
