    Lovely, Kelly! And love the quote. We are notorious for trying to complicate life, aren’t we?

    Beautiful image. I grew up with there being only B&W, so it is still my favorite.

    Kelly, I love that you used a coneflower (one of my faves) to turn b/w. The gentle tones are so lovely!

    Ah, so beautiful! It took me a while to learn to like b&w, too, but now I love it!

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!
