i know that sometimes life isn’t exactly merry and bright.  my wish is that the light might bring you the same hope and peace that it has brought me.

love, kelly

    Nothing is so exciting like sparkling Christmas lights in the bokeh. I can understand your obsession :). And your processing gives your beautiful shot a warm touch, a great welcoming of the season. LG Su

    Love the light. Life isn’t always merry and bright but we can always try to find that little spark.

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!
