This Golden Hour

I took my camera out for a walk last night. And because it’s getting dark so much earlier, I got a front row seat to the golden hour in my neighborhood.

As we approach the Autumnal Equinox and the first day of fall, the sun appears to be crossing directly over the equator. Which for me (in northeast Oklahoma) means that the sun is setting almost due West. And as it sets, the sunlight gives off a golden glow that illuminates anything it falls upon.

I never get tired of this.

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!
